Yep I'm interested in it even though I expect Silva to get mauled

Doubt I'm watching live though I'm starting to get tired already

[Tomwin Lannister]

Will watch it when I get up, if it's finished by then

Hope Brock wins his fight purely because he's kept such a cool head. Done zero trash talking, Hunt at the weigh in saying his thoughts on the match were 'I'm gonna knock his face off' Brocks just standing across the room saying how happy he is to be back

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Hoping Mark Hunt wins tbh, love a fat lad who has unspeakably ridiculous one hit punching power.

[Tomwin Lannister]

If his trash talk game was better i'd agree tbh

I hate half assed trash talk. You either go full on scumbag or you shut the *bleep* up. None of this "I respect so and so but i'm gonna knock him out and he's shit but he's a good lad but he's shit" bullshit.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

I agree with that lol.

[Firenze]

Hunt's an unreal lad, well documented. trying to get the address of someone who was being racist to him on a video game so he could KO them. Just bants. Don't care who wins really, always like an upset though so. BT doesnt seem to be showing the fight pass prelims that start in an hr smh. Every fight tonight is main card lvl

[RealGunner]

Fully behind main man lesnar. But can't see him win though. You don't come to UFC randomly and win against someone like Hunt. But lesnar is a monster so who knows.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Not that this insight hasn't been dished out 500 times in the lead up to this, but if Lesnar can at least avoid getting raped by Hunts stand up and can take him, down, it's game over.

I think he'll win, but it's 50/50 imo. Don't see any favourite.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Against a lot of people i could see it, i just think stylistically it's a bad match up for Lesnar.

His whole game is getting people on the mat and even pounding away or straight wrestling. I just don't see how he's going to get Hunt on the mat and keep him there.

Not to mention Lesnar's striking is bad and he's going up against a premier striker and if Lesnar's first run is any indication not only is he a bad striker he doesn't take strikes very well either.

Technically i could see Lesnar having more success against a higher ranked opponent, just think he matches up bad here.

[Casciavit]

Anyone watching?

Aldo-Edgar going on atm.

[Firenze]

yeah

this will probably be FOTN

Cain obliterated Travis Browne, was worried he may be past it with all his injuries

[Casciavit]

goes the full 25

aldo wins on decision

[Casciavit]

Cormier with dat del rio-esque pop

[Firenze]

welp

DC vs Silva went about how I imagined it would

[Casciavit]

The real entertainment is on next

BORK

[Casciavit]

Nate Diaz, a worse promo than John Morrison

[Firenze]

lol Nate shouldn't ever be given a mic, can barely form a cohesive sentence

[Casciavit]

Great 1st round from Brock

[Casciavit]

Brock wins by decision

[Firenze]

easy win for Lesnar, Hunt is useless as ever off his back. Brock too strong and took him down at will. Hunt's plodding, stalking strike setup didn't help when Lesnar kept shooting doubles every time he tried to engage. Solid W for Brock all in all.

But damn this card has been shit, seen far better this year.

[Casciavit]

You going to stick around for Tate-Nunes?

[Firenze]

yeah but I have pretty much zero interest in womens MMA, her last fight vs Holm was great though.

[Casciavit]

Nunes with a longer entrance than taker ffs

[Casciavit]

Main eventing the biggest ppv ever and one of the fighters is coming out to katy perry

[Casciavit]

Miesha Tate


HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[dmize]

Pretty underwhelming card

Salute to Anderson for going 3 rounds with DC on two days notice. He hurt Cormier too with a body kick but it was too late.

Brock made it look pretty easy. He's still gotta work on his conditioning. He was gassed af in the 2nd round
