The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

[Vincent Van Goat]

Olympian Kayla Harrison will be fighting tonight on ESPN2 she has been wrecking everyone. She's going to fight 155

PFL was decent season, looks like they will be the little brother to the UFC on ESPN

 

[shogun]

Does kayla have striking? If not, she’ll eventually be fed to the GOAT Nunes.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's not very good yet but much better than Ronda's whole career. Harrison would destroy even a prime Ronda imo, but yeah Nunes would kill her right now

Give her a few years and maybe it'll be competitive. Harrison looks like she walks around quite heavy

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Kayla Harrison about to fight

I just realized Mike Brown coaches both Harrison and Nunes

 

[OTG]

whole card been squash matches

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

She look like Brock Lesnar breh. Huge and pale

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Ugly fight. Harrison showed good ground defense to get out of two bad positions. Very underwhelming though even with it being her 4th fight

Back to the drawing board

 

[spiderjericho]

PFL on free espn 2 tonight. Will be watching

Also I really want to see Jordan Burroughs in mma, it’s a shame he’s already 30. Hell, even at this age he could make a run later in life but I don’t know that he wants to do this

He said on Ariel’s show he’s not going to have a MMA career. He will have 1 MMA fight.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Yeah that’s why I was saying I don’t know if he wants it but once he gets into the training and if he won maybe he could change his mind

Bellator card this weekend is one of their better ones. Great to see McKee get a step up. With a W here he should be in line for a shot at pitbull or the very least one fight away.

He and pitbull were throwing some heat at each other in the press conference. Pitbull sounded like he was ready to throw down right there lol

Would like that fight next for sure

So for the PPV you have to subscribe to ESPN+ but then just purchase the event anyway? Is that how it works now?

 

[xbiker47]

What can we expect from Aldo this weekend?

 

[getback]

This is real?

Yup. You have to subscribe first. There are now two paywalls

Espn is supposedly paying the ufc upfront for every ppv card to make up for the less buys. So the company probably isn’t suffering money wise, they could even be making more who knows

The fighters who get ppv shares are obviously impacted though, remains to be seen just how much. The base pay should def take a jump to offset this change

 

[jayt1202]

The guy Hager is fighting, TJ Jones is a whopping 1-1 in MMA, and looks like a homeless Roy Nelson. Guy is a meat plant worker outside of fighting lol.

I know Coker likes bringing in guys with names to fight cans but c'mon son.

 

[illphillip]

Between Canelo fight last week and Bellator tomorrow I'm not even mad at what I paid for DAZN for the entire year.

I think so.

 

[OTG]

oh ****

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

oh ****

Ufc probably not even sure if tony is right mentally lmao

Cowboy taking fights a month later lmao after saying he’d wait for the title or Conor

Not even mad

They better not give conor that title shot though smh

 

[freakydestroyer]

I suppose winner will get McGregor?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I suppose winner will get McGregor?

You thinking too logically lol

This makes it more likely that Conor gets khabib and Dustin is screwed

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The players left are Justin, Conor, Nate and Pettis

Dana do the right thing, man. Any of these fights would be perfectly fine

 

[dasitmane]

This is real?

Jack Swagger vs Jack Black

 

[shogun]

I thought matt mitrione let himself go.
