Why can't I quote more than three times on RealGM? That is odd.

kdawg32086:
They're well scouted for sure, but most of them are unknown to the typical MMA fans here in the US. I think it would be a good way to introduce some Canadian fighters to American fans. I think Canadian fans will watch it regardless, because as you said, they are hardcore MMA fans (some of them a bit obsessive) and American fans will probably watch it because the talent pool isn't watered down and it could potentially launch the UFC career of the next big Canadian fighter.


No argument here.

I'd like to see them finally hit Mexico.

I mean, the fighting tradition there is insane and they are taught to fight until the end, so I would think that could transfer to MMA quite easily.

Any major Mexican-born MMA fighters around?

A lot of Chicanos, but I can't think of one Mexican national in the UFC.

Well, he's not a national, but you'd think Cain would have to be the main guy for that one.

Iodice crumbled as soon as his time to fight got near. Pretty sad, he's a rarity in Australia in that he's got some decent wrestling apparently. REALLY young though so there's still time.

Hey Rogan, now there was a nasty leg kick.

Something big is happening next week judging by the preview, no idea what it is though.

Sounded like a fighter is getting kicked off the show for a rules violation.

I can't imagine a situation where I read another man's diary and get flattered....

Wait! I mean angry!

Also, who the fip cleans the house after these fights?

Pretty sure some poor people do, only part of the show I don't like.

Still, Brad looked solid.

One semi final down, Brad Scott into the finals for the WW's. I think Robert Whittaker if (lol) he beats Xavier will win the show. Brad struggled with Alloway who isn't really that good, despite him somehow beating Valentino.

Richie Vaculik into the semis of the LW bracket replacing Mike Wilkinson, he'll get trampled by Freak Show who is my pick to win the LW's.
