    Chael (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPwc3ypDYMg) Ariel and the Bad Guy is on fire, he is so funny tonight and he usually annoys me. Very on point re Conor's speed.

    That seems to be working okay , just have to wait till 3am to see for sure. I also tried setting the VPN to the UK and download the bt app but still says it’s not available in my location , does anyone know why I’m just curious

    It's a chrome app as far as I can tell, so through chrome you are in forgein but otherwise you are normal.

    The main card starts at 3AM but it has 6 fights on it. The main event (McGregor's fight) will be about 5AM.

    Main card starts at 3am, it'll be at least 5am before Conor gets to the Octagon.

    Only hope of an earlier start is if Eye v Calderwood has a finish, fat chance of that!

    Blue shorts (not gonna try spelling that) looks quite small.

    Decent first fight. But the flyweights are almost as bad as the women's divisions in terms of lack of finishes.

    I could never tell you who Nick Lentz is but everytime I see him fight I'm always dead impressed, win or lose


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Did really well to get out of that guillotine


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,109 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    Yeah, that guillotine looked painful.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,109 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    This fight is like the French revolution with all the guillotines.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Lentz taking some big damage but getting alot of sub attempts.

    Hard enough to score. I'd have it 1-1.

    Evloevs striking really nice to watch. Should have this now.

    Good showing from Lentz also hope he keeps it up for a few more.

    Decent scrap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Wasn't expecting a split there, hope Rountree gets the job done early in the next. My mate was training with him in Thailand for ages supposed to be a proper sound lad.

    It'll be a round 1 finish more than likely either way.

    Think I seen this lad outside spar earlier asking for 20c for a hostel.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,109 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    Wow, that right hook just crumpled Marcin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Some power in these punches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Khalil gassed bad and probably lost it

    Yeah, if he had been more active in that third round he would have won it.

    Definition of grinding out a result there by Marcin Prachnio, was lucky to get out of the 2nd round but put the foot down in the 3rd

    Those boys were hitting so hard. Its actually quite dramatic not having the noise of the crowd as you hear every slap, bang, pow clearer! It makes you wince when you hear bone on bone


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,281 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Was that a bad decision or fair enough?
    Wasn’t watching it closely enough to score it.

    Looked like a bad decision to me.

    2nd and 3rd rounds were pretty clear cut for Rountree and Prachnio respectively. 1st round was close imo.
    But Prachnio probably landed the harder shots


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Khalil threw **** all in the third and lost fairly I thought.

    That's coming from someone who had him in a 50 euro treble (see my post in the gambling thread about how not to win money on mma)

    If he didn't gas and threw a bit more he would have taken the third as he was hurting him.

    Aagh, trying not to see spoilers but have to come here to ask...

    Can I buy the PPV via BT Box Office on Sky, and record it for the morning? I'm working tomorrow so can't sit up all night but I can get up early and watch from about half 6 in the morning.

    But I know some Box Office stuff can only be watched live rather than recorded.

    From looking at other posts it can be recorded mate.

    Pena holds her elbows fair high when striking.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭The Floyd p


    McMann absolutely dominating so far, such high level grappling.

    Jon Anik just said that the McGregor fight was a title eliminator. We all assumed that was the case but don't think anything official was said about that.

    I'm always jealous of Australia having mid day Sunday UFC cards all the time. Glorious. Enjoy man.

    I just heard Macgregors fight will be 06.00..
    Is that reasonably true?

    Hope not.
