She was in a turtle position getting blasted in the head, she wasn't intelligently defending herself.

While going for a reach around single leg.
Turtle is a terrible position in MMA and that was an especially bad turtle.

That said. He has to give her a chance to get out. She wasn’t out. He got close, but didn’t touch them.
She shouldn’t have stopped imo.

Sanchez v Muradov being 3rd on a PPV bill is a real testament to Conor's pulling power! Can't see this fight being a featured prelim on a Wednesday afternoon Fight Night card

Sky are a joke, I ordered on my bedroom box and ive just been thrown out for farting and being a general nuisance, asking me to purchase again on the living room sky box and blocked on sky go. If I'm charged twice I'll murder the *****

Does DC's mike bleed annoy anyone else? Surely there's a sound tech working for the UFC that can sort it out

Fighters on Twitter having trouble accessing the PPV. Some sort of glitch.

Heinisch, Kevin Lee, Mercier and a few others went for illegal streams..... allegedly!

Great stoppage by Herzog. Muradov has some lovely striking. Should be ranked at MW.

I thought it was down to him just being loud as **** as being picked up on every other mix in the arena?

Bisping was asking for streams a couple of weeks ago.

Seems this event is a ****show worldwide

I think we are in for a late night here. It might be a 5.30 start for McGregor v Poirier!

He's definitely being picked up on a second mic somewhere, but Rogan shouts like a lunatic, and you never hear that. I think it's corner mic or something that he's bleeding into, but that should be easily sorted. It's been like that the last few events

Aisy Daly must be sitting at home now smug as anything watching Jessica Eye. Rightly so

Does Fight Pass in America not show the PPV's? I thought all fighters got free subscriptions to Fight Pass. I remember Neil Seery giving out that his Fight Pass subscription was cut 2 weeks after he was no longer a UFC fighter.

Yeah it's been bugging me over the last few events. Seems to be just him as well. Never Felder or Anik

Afaik it all goes through ESPN+, think it's the only way USA PPV can be bought. They removed DirectTV

Daly submitted her a few years ago as a massive underdog

Real soft spot for JoJo but she's destined to be one of those fighters who just never quite gets to the top of the mountain.

Banger of a walkout tune though!

Ah OK. I can't imagine Ais will be smug though seeing as she's retired and Jessica is still in the UFC.

God Jessica Eye is walking cringe. Every time she opens her mouth reminds me of Chandler. Talking in T-shirt quotes constantly.

shocksy · 24-01-2021 5:25am

I think Jess will do just enough to beat Jojo here, the personal bad blood jojo has with her could go against her and cause her to lose focus and do some silly stuff in the fight.

The Floyd p · 24-01-2021 5:25am

I honestly believe, to a man/woman, that Jessica Eye is the least liked UFC fighter on the roster, except for people like Greg Hardy.

Her hypocrisy with weight cutting and just how cringe she is, I really hope JoJo beats her.

Yeah, it seems like she is universally hated by all the other female fighters alright.

She is a classic one Eye'd monster. Cmon Jo Jo!

Was it Eye that was KO'd by the head kick from Valentina?

Yep! One of the most satisfying KO's in MMA history.

I'm out of the loop on the Jessica Eye hate. Why is she disliked?

cletus · 24-01-2021 5:33am

JoJo dips her head to the left every time she throws the right hand, hope Eye doesn't pick up on it

Yeah that brutal head kick. Could hear Joe Rogan saying "oh no, oh no" and I don't blame him, looked like Eye was dead.

Lovely stream. **** Dana

The Floyd p · 24-01-2021 5:39am

Calderwood throwing nice push kicks and body kicks. She'll win a decision if she can make it there.

Conor's only after arriving? That's unusual.

I'm not sure if it's standard under covid restrictions now, but I know Chael Sonnen told a story a while ago of Conor arriving for the Cowboy fight about 40 minutes before he was due to walk to the Octagon.

Correct.

Surprised he didn't turn up in a mink coat 20 mins after the scheduled Main Event start time.

"There was traffic......"

Quality from JoJo, bust her up

The Floyd p · 24-01-2021 5:45am

Super stuff by JoJo! Great use of the clinch. Madness for Eye to be 2 rounds down and spend half of round 3 grinding up against the fence. Eye is a desperate fighter.

I like Calderwood but she stands ZERO chance in a fight against Valentina. I'm sure Valentina could beat both Calderwood and Eye in a 2v1 fight.
