[Kimbo]

Card has been revised, not an exciting card......I have seen better cards on regular TV IMO

 

[dara]

yeah, only match that seems interesting is to see if Joanna can come back.

 

[andkaal]

That will be a good one. She boxes like a man. She has a great jab. 2 women in the prelims might be fun. They fight harder than some men.

 

[Kimbo]

Rooting also for my girl Ashlee Evans-Smith, she needs to win or she will end up in Bellator!!

 

[dara]

Good fight between Rose and Joanna... either one was deserving.

 

[Kimbo]

A couple of good fights, not great but it was ok....definetely not worth 49.99!!

 

[ilan]

Maybe McGregor will kick back a few bucks to those who paid for it. Yuck yuck...

 

[Kimbo]

Who won from all this fiasco is Khabib, he started with his bullying then got a lower opponent...he needed to get punish like all the other fighters that got pulled

 

[Orziz]

If Conor doesn't do jail time or is allowed to fight again in UFC, I'm classifying this sport in the same category as WWE - as far as the hype is concerned. Granted, the outcome can be unpredictable but stunts like what happened in the garage are not necessary to promote a fight.

It will be interesting to see how it shakes out. A mere mortal wouldn't get away with this behavior, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was nothing more than a stern warning and healthy fine.
