Imma call it right now. If Ronda loses, she'll RETIRE. She'll be on some I don't need this shyt tip.

If she wins she's gonna mean mug the camera and call out Holly and bounce with no interview of course with a dumb mean mug.

 

[Roman Brady]

Who knows with Dave though. Dude jumps all over the place at times


I wouldn't mind it being Jon Anik who gets the nod.

Jim Rome

just a rumour, they've been cost cutting like a mothefuker wouldn't make sense to go for an established name like Rome..Dana said he's working on a "dream team". So whoever he wants would be a play by play guy

 

[puppetmaster]

Jonny hendricks looks and sounds like shyt. I think he had a bad weight cut and starved himself delirious. Whether he makes weight or not I think hes gonna have a hard time friday night

Neil is going to give him hell tomorrow. Dude sounds like 3am on a Saturday night at the bar.

Cro Cop beating Mo kinda surprised me. Mo is chinny but he knows how to grapplegrind out ugly wins. Expected him to do that

 

[Roman Brady]

The size difference was silly, as per usual though if mo is in an exciting fight you know the outcome

KING KO

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Magny has an 11 inch reach advantage on Hendricks. The line moved 16 %.

Like I said, King Mo has never had any business above middleweight...should've been @ '85 from jump. Didn't watch the fight...was this MMA or kickboxing? Regardless...breh could've been a hall of famer @ middle, IMO.

The future lightweight champ...who gave the arguable no.1 contender all he could handle in his UFC debut...who destroyed a fighter who is a proven veteran in Jon Makdessi...who defeated said proven veteran via KO of the year......now has to fight a breh that didn't even win his season of Ultimate Fighter? I hope Groovy takes this guy seriously, tho. If so, it'll be another fast KO of the year candidate.


Goldberg wasn't great but he was the voice of the UFC. Mauro would be the obvious choice...and Jay Glazer would be my choice. Glazer's definitely too busy and Mauro might be too busy, too. I think if they get the lead guy from Bellator, that would be a great fit. I like his work.


And Ronda's retiring this Friday, whether she wins or not. She don't really want it anymore....Nunes is just tailor made for Ronda's strengths.

Don't know why interest in fighting is such a struggle in those parts.From the fights I saw they still know how to put on a helluva show. MMA would be worse off without their brand of sheer theatre and fukkery

Pick Okami

DAMN! For a WSOF card...that line up is BEYOND decent....

Shields and Fitch a half dozen yrs. ago would've been ....

Morales is wasting his best years right now...needs to hurry up and get in this 135 mix in UFC...

I wanna see Gaethje-Conor......BADDDDD!!
Probably will never happen tho.
