Awkward situation for Lawler and Woodley, they both train out of ATT. I wonder how that will affect this match.

That one will be a worthy sacrifice to the "just bleed gods". Rumble is going to brutalise Glover.

Conor will probably take the rematch, but i don't think a trilogy will happen. His gonna save that for a bit down the line.

Heavy weight fight will the one were the belt changes hands again, and Overeem will probably loose it as well in his first title defence.

Lawler-Woodley will be interesting as well, i wonder if the judges will give Lawler the decision after probably the first 3 rounds he will get wrestle fucked, only to put on a mean mug in the firth 5 round, throw some haymakers=>"clearly won the fight".

i'll be salty af if even more "wrestler show fighters" gets a win in the ufc :lol:

--

don't know why, but i'm not excited at all for the rumble glover fight. glover can have really boring fights. but i'm sure rumble will make this a fun one. just not excited for it :( didn't even know it was coming up.

it would be hilarious if he does win his fight as he had zero martial arts background, he's old and had loads of injuries because of pro wrestling.

there are many guys in pro wrestling with legit high level amateur wrestling backgrounds and some were even olympians, those guys are far more qualified to enter mma than he is :lol:

no clue, but I expect far more than average ufc fighters but lower than the ufc superstars.

I also expect him to get a % of PPV, since they know he will draw the pro wrestling audience.

He's training with Roufus Fight Sport and Rener, I expect him to have some skills.

Gall isn't exactly a world beater either, very raw prospect.

gall beat a part time mma journalist in his first ufc fight :lol:

tbh they should have just gave cm punk the part time mma journalist if they want him to win. even though he's a rookie, gall might be too much.

very good question

just a matter of time before he gets busted or his form drops because he can't cheat anymore. That guy must have been on juice at some point in his career.

Surgery was successful, but I really hope he isn't planning on fighting as soon as he said he was...

Jesus. I hope to dear god he recovers well. You cant even wish to see your worst enemy experience such discomfort. Ffs this is awful. Makes demba ba's leg breaking injury less excruciating to look at.

Anyone seen Lawler vs Condit recently?

I just re-watched it... damn, Condit should have gotten the win there. I remember feeling the same when I watched it the first time. Lawler won the second and fifth round.

Nha lawler won imo. Condit had more strikes but it dint do as much damage. You could tell that lawler would have ko'd condit had the fight lasted 30 seconds more in the last round.

Really hard to pick as I like both Hobbie and Tyrone.

On another note, Mark Hunt is acting like the biggest bitch ever
