The MMA thread

Jesus Christ why are they letting him compete at 170? He's missed weight in 3 of his last 5 fights at that weight class! 4 of 6 if you include this one. It's ridiculous.

[lemmingjames]

No catchweight fight or whatever its called?

It seems to be getting hyped up now the fight with the antics. Is this Conors natural fighting weight as he looks ill at Feather and would be out of his depth at Welter

[GregK2]

They can't do a catch weight because Cerrone already made weight and there's a stipulation in NYC that his opponent can't be more than 7lbs over whatever weight he made. Kelvin didn't even make the scales.

I can't believe he was more than 7lbs over? If he was I doubt he'll get another ufc contract.

Weigh ins on BT live now. Well, the 'official' ones at least

I don't have BT. Is there any other way, apart from going to a bar in London, to watch it?

+1!!

Other than downloading after accidentally reading the news first thing Sunday morning....

[Johnny]

The usual streaming ways I suppose.

Or, BT seem to be doing 6 months free as part of their push for 205... not sure of specifics though.

Is there a PPV option via Apple TV?

Possibly. But it won't be available in the UK. All content is banned, because BT are greedy s.

That was getting difficult to watch!

I can't believe these fighters are fighting in the prelims!!!

Incredible. So convincingly dominant. I wouldn't want to fight him if I was McGregor either... And I'm a McGregor fan.

[Johnny]

I'm a big Conor fan too but I don't think there's much hope against Khabib either TBH.

It was getting tough to watch!

Entertaining fight from Weidman & Romero, brutal finish!

[Art0ir]

[Johnny]

Decent 1st from JJ & KK!

[AdamIndy]

Some cracking fights so far! Not sure I can stay awake long enough for the big 2 fights though.
