You can thank the curly headed **** (love that he took that new nickname haha)

Askren, Marty, Woodly, Colby, Masdival, Till, Lawler looks refreshed, RDA. That’s a great top half

It's a sport where you have to be a scumbag to another person.



In a ring with rules, not walking up to a guy with your hands behind your back and sucker punching.
He’s a scumbag and now the internet loves him like a Diaz. I hope he gets Askren next and Askren demolishes him.

Whatever you think of Masvidal, the calls for a title shot are obviously delusional after losing two of his last three. I don't see any way you don't make the Leon Edwards fight next. If you really wanted to fight Usman then you shouldn't have punched Edwards lol because now nobody cares to see you fight anyone but him.

It's like the Khabib thing when Khabib was mad people were talking about the postfight melee. Masvidal was doing the media rounds yesterday and wanted to talk about the Till fight instead of the Edwards fight. Dude, an ESPN camera caught you fighting a dude backstage at a UFC event, of course that's going to be what everyone is buzzing about.

I agree, Masvidal is still no material for a title fight. He needs a win against another Top 10 fighter, preferably Leon Edwards or Askren. Fight against Edwards would be better because of the backstage brawl, it would gain more interest and money. If that's not possible, fight against Askren should also be an interesting one.

Pettis believes(rightfully) in his striking ability, he's going to stand up. He's good enough and tough enough that he probably doesn't get finished here, but I can't see him posing much of a threat to Wonderboy at all.

The real question is what is next for Pettis if he loses again? That'll be a really bad streak in 3 separate weight classes for a guy with such lofty expectations.

I guess I won’t be watching the fights today. Buffalo Wild Wings doesn’t have ESPN+, when I google “UFC bars by me,” BWW is the first that comes up, and the UFC website just shows bars that are getting PPVs, not that have ESPN+. I called the one bar by me that has ordered the next PPV and it gives me a busy signal.

My wife Randa Markos just had her most impressive fight of her career. Pure dominance. Love this because Angela Hill is one of those fighters that bullied her. Good for her.

You can get a free week of espn+ if you haven't already. And I'm not one to judge someone's financial situation but I'm pretty sure it's $5 for a month. I bought a year and think it came out to $4/month and I've already watched like 5 UFC events that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to watch live or legally.

You guys see any way Pettis actually wins? I’m willing just to throw huge money on Wonderboy and win big since it feels guaranteed.

Very risky and stupid logic on my part, but Need everyone’s thoughts

I give Pettis a 15% chance of winning. He’s certainly the underdog, but upsets happen in this sport. Did anyone see any way that Matt Serra was going to beat GSP? When I said Rose had a chance of beating Joanna people said I was crazy.

I'm the biggest Anthony Pettis fan here and I don't have him having a chance at all.

Do you have Dish? I know they wouldn’t let me order NFL Sunday ticket because they were negotiating with the NFL, and I don’t see ESPN+ on the menu and it’s not listed as an option when I call.

It’s annoying because I got the sports package that has FS1 so I could get fights that weren’t PPVs and now they have this ESPN+ bull.

I actually told myself after wasting my life on Rothwell and that fat Russian a few weeks back that I wasn't going to waste my time watching fatties fight anymore. Justin Willis is about as fat as they come but I really like Blaydes so I'm going to watch this fight with some hesitation.
