I bet people are gonna say Conors getting better treatment with his suspension than Khabib. Im gonna say this, yeah Conor started this with the throwing the dolly at the bus incident, which he should have gotten worse punishment than he did, and yeah Conor did say personal s*** about Khabib and his family............BUT that melee was started by Khabib where he jumped out the cage, potentially harming fans there, and it was people in his team who attacked Conor and Conor was defending, so this time I feel every suspension and fine given to both and more were correct IMO. I actually think both of them got off very lightly... I mean, they'll be able to fight again in April, so it's not much punishment at all (they probably weren't going to fight before then anyway). It's the same thing with Jones still being allowed to fight, even though he's constantly failing these tests... money talks. It's hard to take any "punishment" of high-profile, bankable fighters seriously anymore - it's become a joke. |

It's hard to take any "punishment" of high-profile, bankable fighters seriously anymore - it's become a joke. Yeah i agree. I know a lot of people are s***ing on the NSAC for how high Khabib was fined compared to Conor. Like its been said, what happened that night, wouldn't have happened had Khabib not jumped the cage to attack Dillion Danis, who BTW is a douche so he deserves a smack in the face IMO, but still. Yeah Conor instigated it, but the revenge/retaliation was dominating Conor, which Khabib did. Yeah it comes to Jones, it is what it is. Wouldnt surprise me if UFC gave NSAC money under the table to license Jones. |

Aldo looked good. Glad to see Assuncao lose. Idk what it is, I just don't like the guy as a fighter. Seems like a class act and a good guy, just can't get behind him.

Bisping was good last night. I want him to commentate full-time, instead of having to listen to Cormier.

Almost watched bellator last night . Sounds like I dodged a bullet. A slow, boring, sleep inducing bullet.

Sucks seeing Cain lose like that

Really disappointing. I wonder if Cain can come back after this? His body might not be up to it.

The look on his face when he went down, that wasn't a face you make when you're ok. Might be time to hang em up. Not that he isn't still good, but I don't wanna see him ruin his life for this. |

The Bellator show was alright. Very disappointed in the MVP/Daley fight. UFC on ESPN was good. My favorite fight was Vicente Luque vs Bryan Barberena. I was watching UFC and WWE at the last time. When they fought, they had my full attention. This was the first time Ive paid attention to Barberena. Luque, i was already impressed with from his last fight. The main event was heartbreaking. From the moment i saw Cain Velasquez enter the cage, then Ngannou entered, I was like "F***, Ngannous gonna win". Cain Velasquez did not look in tremendous shape like i thought he would. I feel Ngannou did punch him when Velasquez went back and his knee gave out, but it wasnt a knock out punch. It was like, Ngannou punched him, and Velasquez was going back to get away from Ngannous punches, but his knee gave out so he took advantage.

Gastellum vs Adesanya official for the interim title

So tired of this interim title crap. I don't recognise any of these interim title holders as legit champs. In my eyes, Whittaker has never been the champ, because he didn't beat either Bisping, or GSP for it. Now Whittaker's out, and you've got Gastelum walking around with a belt he's never won, and now if Adesanya beats him, he'll get a belt too. The last true MW champ was GSP - because he actually beat the REAL champion.

The last true MW champ was GSP - because he actually beat the REAL champion. I generally agree RE. interim titles... usually, they are little more than #1 contender fights. When it comes to the MW title though, I think they did the right thing: GSP (the true champion) didn't want to defend the title - or even fight at middleweight again - so it was vacated. Whittaker had beaten Romero for the interim title though, so was promoted to "full" champion. And he fought Romero again, so it was basically the top 2 guys fighting for the full title anyway. |
