Mir has the most sub's of any heavyweight in UFC history. That's some damn good BJJ and a fighter far more than average.

I didn't know that.

Anyone watching the Korea card now?

Sexyama time

[Gibbo]

****house decision that.

[EwarWoo]

I walked away to the gents and missed the result.

Absolutely cracking fight, but guessing it was given to Mina from your reaction?

[Gibbo]

It was! Will be interesting to see the exact scores though, Sexyama 100% took round 3, could've been been a 10-8!

I think he took 1 and 3.

[EwarWoo]

Round 1 I was getting the Foxtel Go working, so can't judge. But what I did see looked fairly even.

2 was definitely Mina, I wonder how much the low blow (definitely accidental) caused the swing, but he smashed him. Before that was sexy.

3 was definitely Sexy, Mina was utterly ****ed, the tank was beyond empty.

Crucifixes are ace

I reckon Judo is still the most lethal of all the arts when used properly and combined with other stuffs.

[EwarWoo]

Just watching the trailer and realising I've never actually seen a McGregor fight. I dip in and out of MMA and seemed to have always missed him.

He certainly looks tidy.

[Gibbo]

He's very fun to watch, and has mastered his style, considering he started off very much as a counter striker. The thing about Conor I've always found is even though he's talented very fight so far(maybe minus Siver) you expect he's found his level and he always overcomes it, he has massive power in that left and his favourite way of throwing it is stepping in with it when people are against the cage.

The other fascinating thing about him is the mental aspect, Chad was on top of him smashing him with elbows and Conor was asking him over and over again if it's all he had, calling him a little man. He's like a more talented Diaz brother and I think it genuinely puts people off, like the effect Ronda had on the women.

This fight here is interesting, last fight on Benson's UFC contract and he's openly expressed that he might just give it a chance on the free agent market due to the money he's losing in the Reebok deal. If he moved to somewhere like Bellator it would be huge for them

Masvidals entrance music is making me feel like I'm watching the film Drive.

This song must be on that soundtrack.

predictions??

[Gibbo]

I change my mind *every* day about the main three fights on the card.

I think a large part of this fight is the Aldo leg kicking game and how he manages to implement it, there is zero threat of a takedown so Jose is going to let those bad boys go.

I don't think Aldo is going to take him down though like a few people have suggested.

Reckon Fury could take all of these fellas in MMA. Heavyweight Champion of the World an all.
