Jimmy would not get me rushing to buy a ticket
We had Anderson and Leyoto but they were added due to injury

I just wish we could get a card with a title fight

Gutted at the co-main event ending from the latest fight night. An earlier fight saw a legend need to retire, and a new contender announce themselves.


Cowboy was KO'd twice in a fight and the French heavyweight looks a right handful!

The French kid is scary.

I thought the Cowboy fight was over at the end of the first round, Herb stepped in before the bell Imo, I'm not sure what went on there. He didn't look good, perhaps its the end of the line for him too.

No idea where he's going to go from here. Sure he's a crowd favourite, but he's not main event material now (which is a real shame). I say let him get the records, and retire with his head high.

Who Cowboy?

That's the first time I've seen him look off his game in a long time. He didn't look overly confident from the outset.

Sit back, refresh, get head right. When he's on. He, to me is one of the most exciting to watch. The way he puts combinations together is beautiful to watch.

A good little card on the latest fight night, top to bottom. Some cracking finishes, a poor decision in the OSP fight and a return of a 'legend'.

Next up is a PPV - let's see who they will get in to partner Rogan.

Yeah, was decent.

Some good finishes. Cracking uppercut from Zombie. And that right hand from Fortuna. Thought he was getting spanked!

Also just a top scrap between Andrade and Hill. Cracking fight.

Agreed - that should have been fight of the night. (Just checked). It was. All mentioned got $50k.

Thought Vik put in a good show too. Certainly improved a lot since I last saw him.

When Anik shut up, he was OK. Not convinced.

Holm was robbed - terrible reffing. Rest of the card was 'meh' at best.

Other than the Poirier vs Miller fight which was as brilliant as expected the rest of the card was awful, one of the most boring events I've ever endured. Much preferred watching the Tanko MMA show on Saturday night and their Muay Thai show last night

I don't think I'm even going to bother catching up with the card. I've seen the clips of all the bad reffing.

I thought Holly won, regardless of the reffing controversy, yes she got counter punched a fair bit but she was the more dominant presence in the fight and the busier - I was playing my missus at scrabble whilst I was watching it though so wasn't paying 100% attention. I feel for her, I think she looks better at that weight and certainly deserves another shot.

Cyborg will be unbeatable anyway so maybe she's got off with one, if she ever gets herself clean enough to pass the tests and get in the octogon obviously.

BCMMA was on yesterday if anyone caught it. Apart from one of the guys from my club winning his first 'proper' fight, this happened which I can never get tired of watching. Apologies for the fb link:
