2019 UFC/MMA thread

[Scraps 13561]

I had it 49-46 for Max, but with 3 of Max's rounds close.  Frankie just needed to do a little bit more.  But how can you?  Max is hard to hit and he's hard to hurt because you're swinging up and he can roll with it pretty easily.  You can't commit to more flurries because Max is such a good counter puncher.  And you just can't take him down often enough.  He's an impossible riddle.

Her shirt says it. 

 

 

[Junior Miller 1502]

Just skimmed over the fights. The Canadians on the main card fucking sucked ass.

[52-80 19147]

I'd like to ankle-pick and mount her in a north-south or even crucifix position

[TexArcher 37770]

I generally hate implants, but those look pretty good.  Plus she could kick my ass, and that's hot.

[spystud13 2371]

Just break her arm for the 4th time. 

[Scraps 13561]

Not to interrupt the tittays but

 

 

Does anyone know why the card in New Jersey this weekend starts at 11am central? Main card is at 2pm central. Am I missing something? Just seems odd

Looks like ESPN has the NFL HoF ceremony that night, ESPN2 has X games & USWNT soccer. That’s a big sports day for August. 

[spystud13 2371]

My main problem with ESPN+ is you can’t Rew/FF as easily as on DVR, so any card on ESPN/2 is a win for me. 

[spystud13 2371]

 

 

[TexArcher 37770]

Damn.  Hope you like pudding and jello, dude.

Apparently Mighty Mouse won a fight earlier today. And no one gave a fuck.

I saw that notification this morning like “huh. Kinda forgot about Mighty Mouse”. I wonder how much money he’s making over there. Can’t be much 

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

And I can’t watch this card tomorrow morning, but what do y’all think about Covington v lawler. I hope lawler wins (if for no other reason, so Masvidal gets the next title shot), but I have a feeling Covington is going to run through Lawler. 

Covington is a -230 favorite. I was a little surprised by that. I expected him to be the favorite, but maybe not by that much.

I've said it before I think CC is massively overrated, but no outcome to this fight will shock me. I think it is a coin flip.

team covington.  i thought he was another skinny ryan bader type, but the way he took apart demian maia and rda was impressive.

 

keep in mind that at that time, maia was an unsolvable puzzle on a 7 win streak, and had only just lost to woodley.  rda was undefeated in his welterweight run and was a sure-fire contender...

I’m not team Covington, but I disagree with scraps. After seeing his last two fights, I think he’s a beast, and maybe even someone who can challenge Usman. But I’ll admit I haven’t seen a ton of Usman fights.

she man is out:

In an interview released on the company's YouTube channel on Friday, UFC president Dana White declared he is "out of the Cyborg business" and will waive any contractual matching rights he owns on one of the biggest stars in female mixed martial arts.

"I'm going to release her from her contract and I will not match any offers [she receives]," White said. "She is free and clear to go to Bellator [MMA] or any of these other promotions and fight these easy fights she wants. Done. Done deal. I will literally, today, have my lawyer draft a letter to [Justino's team saying] that she is free and clear."

[spystud13 2371]

Wanted to see Nunes beat her up one more time. 

[TexArcher 37770]

Translation: Dana would rather feed Nunes a bunch of wins and have everyone talk about how she's the best of all time than risk her getting KTFO by Cyborg in a rematch, which is entirely possible, and he'll accuse Cyborg of wanting easier fights to deflect from the fact that he's trying to give Nunes easier fights.

[Junior Miller 1502]

Why does it start at 2 pm if it's in New Jersey? It can't just be because it's a 100 percent shitty card

[SameSame 1704]

Damn I forgot this was on.  I gotta sign up for text alerts.

[SameSame 1704]

Good fight going on with Gall and Touahri.

[SameSame 1704]

I hope he's wearing a cup

[Dennis Taylor 18809]

This ref looks like a cartoon character

Haha he damn sure does

[SameSame 1704]

Holtzman is the biggest favorite of the day, over 400

[Dennis Taylor 18809]

Got dam Ma's eye is fucking nasty 

[AbeFroman 2154]

Damn slugfest right here.  Hell yeah!

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Hate to see the fight end like that, but that eye is fuuucked

[AbeFroman 2154]

Loved the energy, but yeah you have to stop that.

[Dennis Taylor 18809]

So is Gerald Meerschaert going to get Bernarded?

[DigDug 1667]

Why take him to the ground 

[SameSame 1704]

Woah shit

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Man, some neutral party has got to get in there and tell Herb that he tapped. I don’t know what kind of damage you can do in that situation, but his own corner was yelling he tapped.

[AbeFroman 2154]

Herb Dean going to get somebody killed.  Cop tapped with both hands and Dean didn't stop it.

What are you looking at?

[SameSame 1704]

I don't know why the announcers are making excuses for Dean.  Once he sinks the choke in you're looking for the tap.

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

The guy claims he let up a little bit as soon as he knew he was out. I hope so. It didn’t look like he did live. 

[DigDug 1667]

Whoever told Giles he could compete with that guy on the ground was lying to him.

[AbeFroman 2154]

At a bar, did I just see GSP?

[SameSame 1704]

Betting line is going up on Colby, pushing 290.

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Lol god damn. Jim Miller. 

[SameSame 1704]

Daaamn

I can’t help myself. God damnit. I know Colby is gonna run through him but that line...just doesn’t seem right

 Georges St-Pierre is at your bar....

I'm going to guess no.

probably not, he's ringside at the event.

 

(jk yes you did, he is cornering somebody)

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

He was helping corner the dude that won via KO right before the Jim Miller v clay guida fight
