Lawler has pulled out of 205.

Shame that!

[VEA]

Well that was pretty boring really. Mainly went as expected. Only the headline fight really offered anything interesting.

[Johnny]

Indeed.

Was an odd card all round tbh. Just... lacking.

Werdum v Browne was just crap. And what was that st after? Poor.

[Don1]

Edmund working his magic in the corner again. Terrible, terrible advice and support.

Faber should think about hanging them up now. Overeem fought a poor fight. Yes, strange all around.

Edmund... god what a strange fellow.

Faber should go to coaching now I think, he looked like he didn't know what to do with himself in there.

The best part of Overeems fight was doing the "Before USADA" and "After USADA" comparisons.

He has lost so much muscle mass he could be a different person, I remember the Brock Lesnar fight weigh in, comparing how he was then pre USADA to how he is now is scary!!

There's something about Werdum I really don't like. I think it's from the fight he had with Overeem where he just lay on the floor and basically begged Reem to come to the ground. It was appalling to watch.

Werdum is a multiple BJJ world champion, Overeem is a multiple world kick boxing and K1 champ... WTF would you expect Werdum to do? To be fair to him he's standing more than is probably sensible and even throwing flying side kicks.

Sounds like Inoki versus Ali.

How can you not like a flying kick to open the fight? First round was quite enjoyable.

The latest fight night.... Prelims - who did Silva annoy to be down there? The rest was boring submission wrestling/BJJ. Great if you want to watch it, less so if you were hoping for an MMA match.

Main card a little better. Cyborg punches like a man. Bararo looked past it, Big Country really doesn't like Big John McCarthy - it was a late/poor stoppage though.

This popped up on my feed, it's me in a bra.

I thought the latest card was pretty weak.

Main event I saw being called all kinds of superlatives. It was st!

[Don1]

I was fairly 'meh' about the whole thing. I really dislike DC on commentary as well.

Just saw that. Always nasty news.

This weekend I think will either be very interesting or completely dull.

Does Chael Sonnen have an official youtube channel?

He seems to be talking about something on YouTube every day that's for sure. Find him quite irritating tbh. Seems to take forever to get to the point.
