    He should have asked the Ref for more time to recover so. He got back into the fight only a few seconds after it stopped.

    When do the fight night weights get released for this. Love seeing what every one weighed in the cage.

    There's no official cage weights is there? It's all usually just speculation from the fighters/there teams I taught

    Edit - Ah it's the csac weigh ins compleatly forgot they do that.

    Jones would be so likeable if he wasn't a horrible, hateful, cheating ****.

    I know that. I'm talking about when he did fight at 155, which was only about 6 months ago.

    I looked it up and he missed weight for his last fight at 155. Not surprising considering he was 188 in the cage only a few days ago.

    Yeah he missed v pettis, he's very underrated imo, even though Condit is shot to bits at this stage he still made it look easy enough.

    My stream went to shíte for that fight the other night. Only got to see his hand getting raised. Must give it a watch later on.

    It was a really good grappling exchange with a good few sub attempts by both. Well worth the watch.

    Ryan is a FW. He took the fight against BJ because nobody else would fight him.

    He's a massive victim of his reputation as a grappler. Nobody wants to fight a leg lock specialist because they're afraid of getting their knee torn apart and because he's not a big name he's not worth the risk.

    I doubt it's the first time that's happened.
    Vitor comes to mind, if I'm remembering correctly.

    A quick google says for UFC 152, when he fought Jones.
    Fairly sketchy at best

    900,000 is the buy rate figure going around for this ppv. No wonder they want to get Jones fighting again in March. Obviously Cyborg Nunes helped too.

    She's a bit of a Christian nut and problematic in a conspicuous way for many, but her attitude towards a loss sets a new bar - even after the trouncing she got handed. Worth a watch. Dignified without being delusional. Real professionalism.

    Done 700k buys, nothing mad to be honest but better than what they have been doing.

    They need McGregor back as soon as they can.

    If they'd scrapped the Jones fight it would have been around 150-300K maybe
