My New Yorker rear end loves Al so much for exclusively geographic reasons but my brother is friendly with Cerrone so I feel kinda obligated to root for him but gently caress him I'm team Al

i want both these guys to win. Top 3 fights are very interesting.

Yeah I think the 3 top fights should be pretty good, I still believe in Cub.

Also I wanna see that heavyweight match on the early prelims, Kraken!

I think Theodorou vs Brunson is going to be an interminable slog as Brunson chases and Elias skitters around the outside of the cage

Just based on what they told us about the Kraken during his walk in I'm a huge fan of the Kraken

fun facts: kraken used to be greg hardy's nfl nickname/twitter account

juan wants to fight greg's bum rear end

juan would hopefully kill greg hardy with mighty punches if they did fight

krakens punching could be more crisp. I know the power is there but its not like top power. Kraken vs Cormier would be lol.

sir, I extremely disagree. it has been drat near 4 years since Arlovski has gotten a KO - he took out the Turd Golem on May 23, 2015. I believe he would beat the pants off that fat boy all around the ring for sure, but my man the Pitbull ain't got the finish in him anymore

Brut
Aug 21, 2007

I haven't changed my mind since the last time I saw him fight (last week)

Brut posted:

Arlovski should retire.

That being said he'd still probably knock that guy out.

Nelson keeps initiating grappling exchanges despite looking thoroughly white belt out there.

Welp

Edit: It never ceases to amaze me how often fighters just go to answering the phone but stop there instead of continuing with the correct way to defend the choke.

Nordine Taleb looks like a smaller version of the giant dude that Iron man got into a brawl with in the ship yard in that stupid Sherlock Holmes movie.

His job owns when you think about it. Ringside seats for every UFC event. Your mere voice gets people hype as poo poo, first class travel everywhere, fans would want a picture but wouldn't be super intense. How is he ever not cheerful?

she had tiny Italian boobs.
Well that's my story.
Despite being a Canuck Im pulling for Morales here. His Wanderlei looking cornerman raised the roof with intensity the likes of which I havent seen since the late 90s golden era of of raising the roof.

"Do not get so aggressive on the ground and pound that you get stuck in an armbar"
