StillUnknown Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 damn good main event scheduled for tonight  Taking Holloway to finish Oliveira in the 2nd or 3rd round.  I'm a huge fan of Oliveira, but his defense scares me. If he can get it to the ground, he's capable of subbing anybody in the division, I think Holloway is quick enough to stay out of the clinch where Oliveira has the best chance to shine. Both fighters are dynamic on the feet, but Holloway is a bit cleaner with his techniques and he has the better gas tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Holloway has really stepped his game up, I thought he'd be a guy trading wins and losses in the middle of the pack. His striking is something. I'm thinking he hurts Charles on the feet and finishes him as well. Definitely in the mood to see a good calf slicer though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Cote and Burkman are two classic fighters, that was fun. Eric Silva in yet another fight where the tables keep turning drastically. Was in a bit of trouble at the end of round 1. 10-9 Magny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 didn't think Magny would survive 1st round Eric Silva, Magny has a nice all around game. Nothing deadly, but he's proficient everywhere  i got him up 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the back of my mind I was thinking it could be something really serious, like the jugular bleeding internally. Here's to him being okay, for his sake and MMA's sake.

Malapropismic Depository Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 As for dream matchups that require a change in weight, and that may not ever happen - I would love to see Dillashaw & McGregor in a striking frenzy  Urijah Faber must read this thread. He is now echoing and advocating the matchup that I was begging for.  http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2015/8/24/9198311/ufc-urijah-faber-interview-mcgregor-vs-dillashaw-feud-mma-news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 UFC 190 (Rousey vs. Correia) looks like it did more than 900,000 PPV buys. Most since UFC 168 (Weidman/Anderson 2). Rousey/Tate 2 was also on that card http://www.mmafighting.com/2015/8/27/9217171/rousey-vs-correia-looks-to-have-topped-900000-pay-per-view-buys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Do Itch Big Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Pretty amazing numbers considering the card was terrible. I thought ufc 189 did like 900k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artmonkforHOF Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 So Lawler injured his thumb, is out of 193 in Mebourne with Condit. The UFC moves Rousey Holm from 195 to headline 193 in a 70,000 seat stadium Nov. 14. looks like Condit will wait for Robbie to heal up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillUnknown Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 http://www.mmafighting.com/2015/9/1/9239067/chris-leben-receives-120-days-of-jail-time-three-years-probation-for Retired UFC fighter Chris Leben was sentenced to 120 days of jail on Monday, as well as given three years of additional probation for his part in an attempted break-in and felony possession of an assault weapon.Leben entered a guilty plea for attempting to break into the apartment of his ex-wife, Kaleena Leben, in San Diego back in June.According to a report to an ABC affiliate in San Diego, the 35-year old Leben will be required to report for custody on Sept. 21. In addition to the jail time and probation, Leben will also need to complete a 52-week domestic violence class, and he has been ordered to stay away from his ex-wife for the next 10 years."This case is a very serious incident," the Deputy District Attorney Matthew Dix said in the report. "[Leben] broke into her home while she was there. He had a loaded gun on him. He also brought to the property an AR-15, which is an illegal assault weapon. So, it's a very scary incident for our victim and it's also important to let people like him know that these kind of things are going to be punished within our community and I think custody time was appropriate punishment in this case."

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Every time Leben seems to turn a corner, he suddenly veers back on to that dark road. 4 months is pretty light considering what he did. Must've not pointed the gun at her? I mean if he broke in, and was armed, and only got 4 months, I assume he stood down once she saw him? Speculating. I mean you'd think they'd add several years to that sentence if he was aggressive in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
