Masvidal has been going hard with his 15 mins of fame after askren, i hope he wins for his egos sake

I can't even tell when the last time I even watched an MMA match. Hoping this will be decent.

The main card is stacked but I don't want to heap too much praise on it, the MMA gods are always watching and take glee in making fights 3 round sparring matches.

 

[Prolepro]

I hope Nate *mumbles incoherently*

 

[Ocean Bones]

Masvidal gonna get socked up.

 

[Riskbreaker]

Hard to take this seriously when the champion and the Challenger to him at welterweight would probably beat both of these guys but let's be honest, this is the Conorweight belt and is only being created so he can skip the line at Lightweight so let's go, I guess.

Who are you talking about, who is skipping the line? Who's going to lightweight after this match?

 

[Masoyama]

Fuck yeah! Straight denunciation of the boring as shit title fight next month. Hope the UFC actually keeps going with these fun fights instead of just trying to be "respectable ".

Stacked card.

Conor wanted Jorge, Dana said no. I can see a trilogy with Diaz if Nate wins though. Otherwise, he'll face Cowboy probably.

 

[hendersonhank]

Masvidal by KO I think. Faster, sharper, hits much harder than Nate, better chin. Probably stronger and a better wrestler.

Nate's only advantages are volume and submissions, but Masvidal made it three rounds on the ground with Demian Maia on top of him so I don't think Nate is likely to sub him.

 

[RivalCore]

From the end of the prelims to the main event has to be the run of fights with the most potential in a long time. Gillespie vs Lee could be a bit of a snoozer but I'm really intrigued by it! Lee looked like death with a staph infection at the weigh-ins so Gillespie could spend 10 minutes ragdolling him after he gasses.

 

[pixelation]

I'll start watching with the Walker fight, no interest in the fights before that one really.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Looks like a good card, can't believe Arlovski is still going

 

[Instro]

Hopefully it ends in a double KO.

Stacked card.

You believe Dana's lies. Sad.

Just don't be surprised how this goes, all I am saying.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Man, I can't wait for this Ngannou vs. Lewis fight! First round KO for sure!

 

[Mar Tuuk]

Don't forget Trump will be there at MSG tonight. Gonna sit right next to Dana

 

[BLOODED_hands]

Think Diaz can get the W tonight. Won't be surprised if he loses either.

Doing great despite being with the worst coach and gym in the game.

 

[Chessguy1]

nice to see a new prospect from edmund

 

[pixelation]

Let's see if Masvidal can keep his fantastic streak going.

 

[Wamapoke]

Love Burgos style when he gets in his groove.

 

[Wamapoke]

Corner should throw in towel. It's done.

 

[Prolepro]

Can you score a round 10-5?

 

[Masoyama]

Those body shots. My god.

Johnny Walker Time!!!

 

[DrewFu]

Is Trump still gonna be there?

Dude is a monster. Extremely high fight IQ for his age, definitely going to keep track of his career.

[El-Suave]

Got this month of Fight Pass because they put Johnny Walker in the Prelims and it's the only way to watch them here in Germany. Love him.

The biggest and best shut downs.

 

[JetmanJay]

Burgos with that drawn on magic marker beard. That last round was brutal to watch. Thought it should have been called before K got dealt a more dangerous blow.
