UFC 227 - Live Discussion 8/4/18

[MachidaKarate]

I love Bang

He has followed me for a few years and he is such a likeable humble bloke.... I'll always support his fighters.

That's pretty awesome!

He's seemed like a cool dude from what I've seen. Kind of sucks his fighting career ended the way it did.

I've got an idea. Cejudo v TJ at the same time as DC v Brock.

that's actually a good idea, considering DC and Cejudo are olympic buddies

 

[jason73]

the main and co main make up for the shit womans fight on the main card

 

[silentsinger]

Yep, he was. Team fucking England, lol.

 

[tang]

Wasn’t Dillashaw on Team Bisping?

yup got KO'd by Dodson

 

[1372]

I for some reason have lots of fighters follow me... I only post shit too.. Weird.

I could be the mma community twitter guy but @Splinty won't pay the rice I asked for.

Try that in Engk$$7)?

 

[Wild]

I dont think Cejudo wants any of Dillashaw TBH.

 

[Lamont Cranston]

Bas is awesome. He's put out some great fighters and coaches. (ie - Bang, Tompkins)

 

[Lukewarm Carl]

I love the fact that TJ has embraced the Dillasnake thing to the point that he was just signing a Heebok shirt that had a snakeskin print on it.

It also works. Heavyweights don't move around much and the little guys can just sort of move through the open spaces.

 

[MachidaKarate]

Basically. Cruz didnt have the power so cody was able to get loose and set his own pace. Plus he wants to smash TJ so bad to please papa urijah that he fights too tight

Makes you wonder who's going to beat TJ now.

Only guy that comes to mind would be Cruz but Cruz is no doubt ring rusty and also getting older.

?

 

[OCMikey]

Cejudo is th GOAT. Rogan will cry into his albino goose feather pillow tonight.

brings balance to the universe

It depends if TJ can handle the pressure of Cejudo and hang there on the ground.

 

[ShakaSway]

This and the women's division that Rose is top of have the potential of going very stale very quickly if the champ puts in one or two defences.

Certainly a thing to worry about when some are predicting Cejudo vs Dillashaw for that MSG card rather than a contender for either.

The Rose situation is it seems more women want to migrate to the 125lb division. Hollowing out already shallow divisions. But 125 should be fun!

Ricco and Kerr also were under him too

 

[member 3289]

Garbrandt has the fight IQ of a rock

 

[BeardOfKnowledge]

For those who though DJ should have gotten the nod. The stats are kind of hilarious.

Yep.

 

[Wild]

Garbrandt has the fight IQ of a rock

He gets sucked into brawling too easily, for sure.

 

[member 3289]

He gets sucked into brawling too easily, for sure.

That's two straight fights he's had TJ hurt but got too overzealous and ended up getting knocked out.

He's capable of beating TJ but he'll probably never get another shot at him.

 

[Silverball]

Rogan is killing the game right now with his Dominick Cruz is 35, and doesn't have much time left talk. Dom just turned 33, while TJ is 32. It's still impressive that Joe manages to be one of the highest paid individuals on the UFC roster without ever bothering to hit up a fighter's Wikipedia page before the pay per view card.

 

[silentsinger]

$60 well spent imo.
