That double carny knockdown was pretty fun though

It's just depressing watching guys in their 40s getting KO'd.

Both George Foreman and Randy Couture were world champions in their 50's right?

Couture was in his 40s, not sure about Foreman.

He was in his 40's too actually. He became champ again at 45 at retired at 48, I always thought they were older.

Gutted Fedor lost, but that double knock down was great ha. I think he should retire for his health. But he wants to fight again... mad man.

No way this freakshow happens in the UK

Steve Collins is a slob who can't even spar without collapsing in the ring, Benn will kill him.

This follows on from what I posted on the last page, there's no way I'm watching any of this fight. I hate the idea of it as a spectacle. Boxers often struggle to recreate that thrill outside of the ring, that doesn't mean they should be encouraged by promoters to destroy their health when they are way beyond what you'd expect from a reasonable fighter. It's a freakshow. They can fight if they want but strawberry float supporting it in any way, I'm not even touching it on torrents.

Lawler Vs Cerrone moved to 214 creating a stacked line up:


UFC 214

LHW title - Cormier vs Jones 2

Women's Featherweight title - cyborg vs Evinger

Welterweight Title - Woodley vs Maia

Robbie Lawler vs Donald Cerrone

Jimi Manuwa vs Volkan Ozedemir

Ricardo Lamas vs Jason Knight

Aljamain Sterling vs Renan Barao

Sage Northcutt vs John Makdessi

Anyone see that woman who gooseberry fool herself during her fight the other week? Someone's offered her $15k for her shorts.

I wonder if Romero sold his shorts after he gooseberry fool himself. Probably wouldn't have been quite the same demand.

Some great fights this weekend. Michael Johnson vs Justin Gaethje was superb. Last minute or so: https://streamable.com/tjlbf
Whittaker is immense, don't like Romero but can't deny he's dangerous. Back-to-back wins over Romero and Jacare for Whittaker now. Pettis looked good, and the Browne fight was entertaining.Decent weekend overall.

Really don't like the commentary on the UFC now. Rogan aside it's so boring, and having three people doesn't seems to detract more than anything. Was great to hear Goldberg on Bellator last week.

Browns a banana split. Delighted to see him lose.

Dana White has gone on one of his rants and says Nunes will never be getting a main event ever again because she can't be trusted. He also o said the same thing about Jon Jones.

Probably pissed he beat golden boy Weidman

Not arsed about this at all. Jones is going to be the favourite vs pretty much anyone he faces due to his physical gifts giving him a huge advantage. No coincidence his biggest beating was against Gustafsson.

Shame Jones v Rumble never happened.

Maia fight doesn't interest you either?

214 is the most stacked card in ages, I can't wait for it.

Oh I just meant the main event. The rest of the card does look really good on paper.

I'm pretty indifferent about Cormier, but Jones is a god-tier banana split, so Cormier to win please. Also hoping to see Maia win. Lawler-Cerrone should be good, not fussed about any other fights.
