Could you imagine Popovich saying, Joel Embiid? Never heard of him. Is he tall?

No one is going to be seen as a challenger for Conor unless they re making noise in the division. There have been too many bigger fights in his sights.

Lee is now but not until his latest win.

only way kevin lee is gonna get to fight conor next is if he decapitates el cucuy in the center of the octagon. i don't really think tony gets to fight him either.

I get that it's an extension of the 'who the fook is that guy' routine, but it's lame as hell coming from Kavanagh. Just shut up and pretend to do your job instead of acknowledging to the world you're a glorified hype man who was lucky to hitch his wagon to one of the greatest natural talents in MMA history.

EDIT: god damnit now I'm googling Kavanagh articles at 2:30 am to see if he's actually a good coach and not just a luck sac. I'm sticking with the latter but he's got a black belt, so there's that.

We are about to find out. It's the first fight. I think it may be the best fight on the card. Though I do want to see Nunes shevchenko. Shevchenko needs to win imo. It would be best for women's bantamweight division, but Nunes is hulk at that class. She is one of the few that I feel could give cyborg issues.

Idk if Nunez can be a dominant champ. Her gas tank isn't really good enough for her style to be effective in five round fights. This is a bad matchup for her.

feel like shevchenko had that until 2 mins left. now i'm not so sure, even though next to no damage was done on the ground.

No clue who won. Amanda had a good game plan. Shevchenko seemed to really struggle figuring out her range.

I honestly thought it was 2-2 going into the 5th. Shevchenko did much better in the the stand up in the 5th but there wasn't much to it compared to Amanda's two takedowns. I would tend to give that round to Shevchenko but Im not sure that's right and I don't think many judges will let a champ lose such a close fight.

media is split 10-10. judges cards not up yet as at the time me posting. if both the guys who gave it to nunes gave her the 5th i'm going to be pretty salty. she literally took more damage than shevchenko in the last 2 minutes.

edit: yeah they did lol

yea RDA looked great, and i gotta tip my hat to henry cejudo, he looked very much improved- like a completely different fighter, imo, and completely dominated reis

did jeremy break gilbert's leg?

New UFC Countdown show is up, and Rockhold is now training under Henry Hooft in South Florida. Seems to skirt the question of whether he's officially done with AKA, but it always looked pretty likely given all thats gone on there the last 3 years

He said he was doing his camp there and I don't think it's permanent

Dos Anjos is an idiot for letting himself get hurt before that fight. He cost himself his career pay times 2-10x. How ****ing hard is it to train right for your biggest payday ever? Just show up and lose dummy and you will be better off. Then he did the weight cut wrong versus Eddie. No love for that ****. Would love to see him luck the belt at 170 and have Conor ko him in the first round.

Rockhold working with Henri is a great move. Hooft is probably the best technical striking coach in MMA right now. He just has issues connecting with fighters on a mental level (like Rumble), which is something that a place like Jackson-Winklejon shines at.
