Malapropismic Depository Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 It's kind of hard to judge Jones' offer without knowing the details of that offer, and how it compares to a fight like DC vs Miocic, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, Aldo losing to Moraes wasnt some robbery of a decision. It was a close fight. I dont like the idea of ufc disregarding results of fights that happened to suit what they think should happen. Its the same type of **** that i hate about boxing. There are multiple fighters at 135 with a better claim to a title shot than Aldo, who really hasnt looked that good in his last 2 fights. As much as i love him, there's not much evidence of him being the type of fighter that will demonstrably increase ppv buys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only fight I'm really looking forward to on it is Garbrandt vs Assuncao and that should not be a co-main on a card like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malapropismic Depository Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Now we know exactly why Conor posted on twitter recently that he thought the #1 and #2 P4P GOATS, are Silva, and then himself. It was to set up and promote this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at the lineup for tonight's event: UFC FIGHT NIGHT - WOODLEY VS BURNS and I realized I didn't recognize any of these fighters, even the former champion. I'm not sure how much of that is me not following the sport closely versus how much of it is that there don't seem to be many big names that stay at the top of their game for a while to create recognition and the dilution of the talent pool because the UFC is always putting on events, so that have to put somebody up to fight, even if nobody knows who it is. It seems to me that there used to be more recognizable fighters. Edited May 30, 2020 by China 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we do see brilliant performances, we dont have time to sit back and appreciate it because the promotion has already moved on to UFC Fight Night: Wherever the **** I think back to Gaethje destroying Ferguson and it feels more like a blip on the radar rather than the potentially seismic shift it should be for the deepest division in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 That Dern is submission was fun to watch. I can’t imagine growing up with a pro fighter mom though. Moms are already scary enough when they get mad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Yeah it’s really weird. All the physical tools. Maybe he gets too stuck in his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Woodley is so frustrating to watch. Kinda remarkable he ever won a title. He looks like the same guy who lost to Shields. If he doesn’t land a big right hand, he automatically loses the round. He literally has no other tools. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont Taze Me Bro Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Question. I have ESPN+ and have been ordering the last 4 or 5 PPVs. If I decide to not order UFC 250 this coming Saturday, how long until I can watch it with just the ESPN+ subscription? IIRC, back in the day on Showtime/HBO, the boxing PPVs would show like one or two weeks later. Just curious because I don't necessarily need to watch it live, especially now without fans at the events, and could wait a week or two to watch the replay.

I don't have an answer to that question but I'll say this: If I don't order a PPV (which is RARE), I end up not feeling the need to watch it at all. It's the anticipation of the event that pulls me in. Once it's over, I'm over it. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
