It’s hard to take Khamzat as a serious fighter if he shows up like that.

It's actually quite troubling that such a talented fighter is this unprofessional going into his first PPV main event. He could have fucked the entire card. It's actually quite impressive how they've managed to shuffle the card without screwing anyone over. All the drama at the prefight presser is beginning to look serendipitous. It's made a pretty uninspiring card a bit more interesting. 

Kamzat is the kind of guy who's been told how wonderful he is his whole life and hes obviously surrounded by yes men. He missed weight by half a stone. Its a real lack of respect for the sport and your opponent.

Jose Aldo has retired. Absolute legend.

Chatter that Bellator are trying to book the corpse of Fedor vs. the ghost of Anderson Silva. I'd have paid big money to see this fight 12 years ago, but it will just be sad spectacle at this stage of their careers. I'd still watch it, though. How could you not? It's the 2 GOATS.

Isn’t the latter about to box that one who knocks out the former UFC fighters?

Watching Fedor was what got me into MMA. Beast of a man.

MMA judging is becoming as big of a mystery to me as VAR is. I used to have a pretty good understanding of the rules, but these days I haven't got a fucking clue what the decision is going to be.

I thought the first round was really tight. I’m more clued up on how boxing is (supposed to be) scored (when the fix isn’t in). But all I’d say is Yan did basically fuck all in the time he was in control and the significant strikes favoured O’Malley.

But Sean winning is also much better for business so you can see why it would skew that way and he clearly wasn’t sure he’d won himself.

Islam is going to pin Volk down and fuck the life out of him. And I’m here for it.

Thought the same tbh I thought Malley won too. Was close tho and wouldn’t have argued if Yan won.

Why the Volk hate he’s a machine. True champion!

I just find him annoying. Don’t get me wrong, cracking fighter. No disputing that, especially after the last Max fight. I find that sort of alpha Aussie thing really grating.

I think Islam will be too big for him. He’s going to be a massive issue because he’s got that grappling game and can handle himself on the feet too.

Yeh Islam looks big even in his own weight category. If anything Islam should come down to fight Volk or make it at a catch weight if you can do that in UFC.

I don’t think Islam can be class as P4P No.1 if he beats someone weight below

I think it’s going to be like when Max went up and fought Dustin but just wasn’t big enough. Volk has advantages over his usual opponents in that he’s naturally a heavier guy. He won’t have those advantages as he moves up. He may have had a chance against Charles but I think this is a horrible matchup for him/anyone. Like when Adesanya went up and got laid on.

Alex Pereira is one scary dude, kind of expected that result with that massive difference in size

how on earth is he a middleweight hahaha the guy is enormous. Izzy isnt small either and he looked tiny compared.

really like Izzy too. Be great to see a rematch but Pereira will be living in Izzy's head now even more so

[Monty]

RIP Frankie. I'm glad he's done now. The last 5 years of his career probably took 20 years off his life.

Sit the fuck down Chandler. Entertaining as fuck fighter, but there's something about him that rubs me the wrong way. Love seeing him lose.

Didn't have a clue what to expect from the main event, but happy it was an entertaining fight. Izzy really doesn't do well against bigger fighters.

UFC's big cards have been delivering recently.

[Kojak]

Chandler is such a dumb fuck. If he didn’t have the IQ of a chip buttie he’d be the champ. Can’t work out if he’s fucking thick or just more preoccupied with the reputation he’s built as an entertainer. Anyway, great fight.

Was happy to see Izzy lose just to see a bit of a change to be honest. Thought Pereira did well to hang in there. You could see how much bigger and stronger he was when they clinched for the first time.
