Sorry, I meant I hope Condit doesn't retire. He is an all action fighter and I like watching his muay thai based striking. Wonder if there will be yet another re-match? Robbie seemed to be up for it.

So 197 is confirmed Conor will fight Dos Anjos and Holm will fight Miesha. Should be a cracker!!

Will the UFC let him hold and defend titles at both weights? He can't surely. So is he vacating the featherweight title or will it be a case of see if he wins at lightweight?

Wow, he's not there to take part is he? He really is there to take over...

From what I have read he is aiming to be the first 2 belt champion, I guess they have allowed him to do it as he is such a draw at the moment

I think Holm vs Tate will be very good, got a lot of time for Miesha

Not the first time that's happened,pissed me right off aswell. Usually when I record a UFC event you get about a hour and half of basketball or something st recorded after the event has finished. One extreme to another!

Accidentally saw the result today. Bah! Oh well. Good fight! Not a bad card either, just need to catch up on the prelims. Very surprised Cruz/TJ wasn't on a PPV.

I woke up about 5:20am and put it on to see who was fighting, quite surprised to see the length bar start fresh at 5:30, so i just stayed up and watched the last bit.

I thought they would probably be a number of people annoyed it cut off, happened a fair bit in the past, i used to set it to record the program after sometimes.

Ready to talk about the results?


No complaints over Cruz winning. I just wish I could like the guy a little more. I respect him, but there's a fine line between self-belief and vanity.

Pettis - what a disappointment. He's apologised and wants another fight asap.

Brown Vs Mittrione - it's amazing what a difference a ref makes. Brown shuld have been warned about his hands repeatedly. Mittrione is a warrior to go through that shoulder and a broken eye.

No complaints over Ross Pearson either. Has he hit the same level as Brad and Michael? Won't get higher, no title shot. Jimmy Manua - be ready for the same unless you change stuff up.
