If Alvarez throws like that in an amateur boxing gym, he gets kicked out and spat on his back ;D

I would rather see Conor fight some average/below average boxer so we can see how big of a difference their skills really are, with Floyd he is one of the GOAT so him clowning Conor really won't show how big of a mismatch it really is. Unless he goes all Great White Hype, shows up fat and smoking and runs through Conor.

Just saw the UFC 210 card. Was wondering about Chris Weidman. Do you think he has a chance? his last 2 fights have been absolutely brutal. I'm gonna assume Chris has some brain damage going through those 2 fights.

Of course he has a shot, he's better than King Mo and could try to replicate that with spamming takedowns.

The line is not far from pick 'em. Moose is a righteous fave, largely for the most obvious reason you're thinking about. It still took a knee of death from Romero tho, it's not like he showed to be chinny. Guys like Mark Hunt have been destroyed and their chins stayed strong.

Weidman's fight against Rockhold should have been stopped long before it was. Herb Dean should have been suspended after letting that happen. Even being a few seconds late can be costly like it was against Romero.

Rockhold was on FS1 saying he's fed up with all the MW crap and GSP won't fight anyone if he beats Bisping. Said he expects Bisping to win though.

Said he wanted to move up to HW and fight Werdum and seemed serious. Saw Werdum said it would be pointless for him though.

I don't blame him, must be frustrating to lose the title, be 3rd in line and have the champion fight 2 non contenders in a year and a half

UFC needs to stop having so many circus fights and focus on belts.

The UFC is getting away from one of the reasons it became popular, Champions having to fight legit top contenders.

Robbie Lawler vs Cerrone @ UFC 213 close to be done

Khabib said he needs 3-5 months to recover, has stomach issues, wants to fight in September. Doesn't want to fight @ 170 pounds.

It's def plausible, also plausible that Lawler is shopworn overnight and/or a head kick to the dome is putting him away.

Jeff Mayweather says Floyd told him 3 weeks ago he started the camp for Conor, but he doesn't believe him, the gym whould have been shut down etc. Jeff says they offered Conor 80-20 split and that may keep things still atm.

Kavanagh says they think the fight is on, they're training to face Floyd this year, 147 pounds might be where it's at.

Pearl Gonzalez kicked off the card because New York doesn't allow women with breast implants to fight. lol

UFC cheating for DC on the weigh in is the most obvious thing ever. LOL at this company.

What is the explanation? Did he cut his own dick off and get it reattached or what?

He held onto the top of the towel to distribute his weight.

Baaah please....

Even if he missed the second time he would had another 2 hours to lose 1 pound.

but more importantly, in the UFC you are allowed to be over the limit up to 1 pound anyway...
