Al a wild boy and no mention of injury. Wonder what happened.

That was a good one on paper.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Iaquinta has been criticizing Dana for weeks about the weight cut thing and seemed like he was always up and down with him even after the khabib fight

Okamoto is reporting that James Vick has accepted to fill in against gaethje and that Kevin lee declined to

 

[jewseejay]

Lol cut Yair but let Al continue to **** down your throat Dana. Hah

The disrespect

 

[alchemist]

Probably a money dispute for Al, glad Vick is getting the fight though. The guys been lurking in the lightweight division silently racking up Ws. Who knows how far Vick could go.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

By the way, it sucked for Felder losing Vick as his opponent because that's the second fight in a row that was taken away from him. The first being in Brooklyn when Al was given the title shot

Looks like Felder is now replacing Yancy on the July 6 card to fight Mike Perry. Way better fight

 

[illphillip]

This exchange (swipe through all of it)

 

[alchemist]

Man I miss Goldberg in the UFC.....

Going back on Fight Pass and watching old PPVs reminds me how awesome dude is. Such a character and his blunders only made me like him more.

 

[newbs24]

His love for the Superman punch is probably my favorite

[QU!K]

Those bags of sand don't impress me

 

[shogun]

Now she got extra weight to cut.

 

[newbs24]

Now she got extra weight to cut.

She should take the Ronda route and go Hollywood... Even a low budget movie would pay her more than the UFC

 

[QU!K]

Nvm

[Vincent Van Goat]

Daley is so unlikable at this point. Dude must be legit scared of Michael Page

 

[alchemist]

Wow Andy Myrad gained 30lbs from weigh in to fight night, that’s Darren Till level of weight cutting.

 

[af1 1982]

Paige

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Wow Andy Myrad gained 30lbs from weigh in to fight night, that’s Darren Till level of weight cutting.

It’s insane. I hope every commission starts making fighters weigh in on fight night and publishes the numbers

It’s fascinating

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Early weigh ins still a thing for next weekend's card

 

[alchemist]

Whos everyone got? Stipe or DC? Holloway or Ortega?

 

[spiderjericho]

They’re both toss ups.

I respect Stipes power and grit.
DC has good wrestling, clinch and dirty boxing. Good chin if he survived the haymakers from Rumble.

Blessed is the best. But Ortega been on the come up. That Mortal Kombat uppercut he gave Frankie was vicious.

 

[jayt1202]

I'd agree on both the main and co-main for 226 going either way. If I had to make the call I'd say Max gets the decision win over Ortega due to his great cardio and volume. Could also see DC getting a finish on Stipe late or winning the decision.

Great card all around though, even the prelims have some good matchups.

 

[OTG]

oezdemir vs gustafsson set for 227.

 

[Beans]

Main event is a toss up.. I got max by 4th round tko

 

[Beans]

damn just finished countdown and its hard to dislike ortega man..
