The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- UFC 300 ON NOW

[champcruthik]

Champ- It looks like I'm throwing my best friend's bachelor party that weekend. Cruise out.

Sealed the deal for me right here. Where you staying?

Not that many of you care, but what you think about Kongo vs King Mo?

Kongo has looked somewhat revived under the Bellator banner. 4-1 record, three of those victories by finish. With that being said, I see this being a potentially boring fight if Lawal goes the cautious route to victory.

Rooting for McGeary. I'd be really impressed if he finished Newton.

If MVP doesn't knockout Millender in the first round and a half, Curtious is going to steal a decision in Connecticut.

notoriouslar , you attending this card in your backyard? I'm beginning to consider it.

Mo will probably take down Kongo and grind out a decision.

Fearing the same, I doubt King Mo elects to trade and bang in the stand-up with Kongo. Lawal has a tendency of utilizing his stifling wrestling more against noteworthy opponents. Far more cognizant of his opponent's strengths instead of imposing his will and seeking a finish. Prime example is the Rampage bout most recently.

Venetian/ palazzo. Going to be wild. Bottles at xs.

Maybe I'm giving Kongo to much credit but I would say he got this easy.

Doubtful, brotha. Moved to BK in January, no plans to head back to CT any time soon.

It's a solid card, but my biggest draw would be the possibility of catching a glimpse of Fedor lumbering around the halls of Mohegan.

Jones vs Johnson and Weidman vs Belfort happening at UFC 187.

187 and 189 look like they'll be stacked with two title shots each. So they surrounding cards will probably be lackluster.

I don't play games in Vegas. I'm back in SoCal btw [emoji]9786[/emoji]️

Jones vs Johnson and Weidman vs Belfort happening at UFC 187.

187 is also loaded with Cowboy vs. Khabib, Benavidez vs. Moraga, and Browne vs. Arlovski. Absolutely stacked compared to 184.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

These cards, JESUS

I don't care about bad cards around them because these two are too good. Now we wait for the injuries 

 

[phillyzphan]

If Weidman or Aldo got hurt and had to pull out of their fights I wouldn't be shocked.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Don't worry brahs, injuries and drug testing will thin out those cards

WAR McGeary.

That is all.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

These cards seem kinda desperate imo.

Each of those fights should easily be able to carry a PPV. Especially the MW and LHW bouts. Those are massive.

 

[tiger energy]

Those events will be thinned out by injuries and failed drug tests anyway.

 

[carver]

May 23rd.. please don't get injured guis..

pls

We will complain about any and everything won't we 

First, cards are too thin now cards are desperate 

 

[phillyzphan]

187 and 189 being stacked isn't desperate. Its what I expected. These are the Memorial Day weekend and 4th of July weekend cards. They're always stacked. 

Both the M.D weekend and 4th of July cards from last year started out as being stacked. Injuries just killed the cards.

Exactly

These are the money dates for the UFC, they trying to duplicate UFC 100

Don't see that being desperate I see it as finally giving us what we've been wanting

 

[smedroc]

Yeah i guess that makes sense...

I think i'm just against double headers because i can't handle that level of anxiety in one sitting

 

[keko jones]

May is going to be wonderful ... We going to get May weather vs PAC too

Eh, that fight is a few years too late. Kinda like when Chuck finally fought Wand.

 

[keko jones]

Maybe ... But can you name a couple of fighters now that you would rather see against Floyd or even PAC let alone beat them?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

May is going to be unreal

I am still in disbelief that all of those fights are scheduled to happen

It would be nice to see JMM knock out manny again and see all my Filipino people be depressed.
