Essential The Official MMA Thread

Has anyone seen this TV promo for UFC Boston?


I mean I understand you want to showcase Mcgregor but this is just ridiculous. They couldn't even be bothered to sell Siver. Not a single highlight. They had him appear for a 2 sec spot like he was a debuting fighter who just stands and pose in the background because they have no footage of him. I noticed they've been promoting a lot of their upcoming cards like this

Guys just basically being regulated to the background. I noticed that during that huge press conference where they basically had all favorties on one side and the underdogs on one. Its the same shyt that wrestling does. How do you expect to make stars or build interest in a fight when you don't even properly promote them? They need to seriously overall their whole presentation. Everything from their promos to their card production is stale.

"The time is now"

If former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar is thinking about making his return to mixed martial arts (MMA) in the second half of 2015, he had better think again.

Or face the wrath of Brendan Schaub.

"Doing fake wrestling is not the same as being in the UFC," the struggling Schaub told The Jason Ellis Show (via MMA Digest). "You're playing grab ass, you know if you're gonna win or lose. Yeah, it's hard on your body, great. He hasn't been competing and training like I have. If he comes back to the UFC, I would 100-percent send him packing back to the fake wrestling."

at Brendan Schaub of all people talking trash about Brock.

Brock would have this dude getting another life re-evaluation talk from Joe Rogan.

Next weeks Fight Night gonna be piff

 

[WhodatWhoadi]

Dana & Co. want to hot shot Conor to a title match before he has the opportunity to get exposed by an elite guy in the division (i.e. Edgar, Mendes, etc.). Aldo/McGregor is a big money fight, and the UFC wants to cash in. In a perfect and fair world Siver knocks Conor out cold.

Could pull off a spinning back kick to the liver


ahhh who we kidding? siver getting finished

I hope Diaz isn't dumb enough to actually not check kicks. But then again the Diaz bros retarded.
If Diaz wins by check leg break.. I'm quitting MMA for a month

Following the loss of two separate fighters in the past few weeks due to injury, Uriah Hall finally has an opponent for this weekend's UFC Fight Night card in Boston as Strikeforce veteran Ron Stallings has been tapped as a replacement.
