Fightpass, July 7th.

Eesh. Not too many less inspiring #1 contenders than Eddie.

Great guy, veteran, been through the mill. But RDA has him in every area, he doesn't have KO power, and my suspicion is that the new testing protocol is going to hurt his regimen.

Well the interesting thing is the UFC putting a title fight on fight pass.

Eddie has paid his dues so in a way I'm happy for him. At the same time, he handily lost to Cerrone and has won two split decisions since (he lost to Pettis imo). And the method he won his fights were in a method that couldn't possibly work for him against the champ.

Oh, this is a thread for this. Not watching at this moment, but read Makdessi is about to fight, wonder if he's going to use his fight purse to pay all the guys he owes through fear the fighter?

Doubt it.

Has anyone been watching? just tuning in now, card looks really weak aside from the co & main event...

Maybe the fights weren't as under whelming as the card look on paper though..

Mousasi is on the verge of murdering him at this point. :lol:

Duffy just KOed then submitted some dude in like 9 seconds.

Yup, if you blinked you missed it.

This Muhammad dude is tough as nails. Also has some nice wrestling technique, good posture.

Cannot believe the beating Muhammad survived in round 1.
In turn I cannot believe the beating Jouban survived in round 3.

No clue what happened in round 2, briefly tuned out.

Love Roy but kind of rooting for Black Beast. He has a good personality, and we kind of know what we have with Roy at this point unfortunately.

A fat as ever Big John doing his best to interject himself into this Roy/Lewis fight. Roy taking punishment as a result of BJM interfering.

Nelson might die here, too much heart for his own good.

Anyone else in Canada just lose their feed on the fight network on Rogers?

I'm in Murica and just lost mine, may be a fightpass problem.

Black Beast would DESTROY Lesnard.

He looked incredible in the first round, can't stop a takedown since.

Roy's chin is just ridiculous. Shows how hard Hunt hits.
