Thanks man. I really am pathetically excited.

Looking at the card it's got some superb potential. Struve is always exciting and I'm a bit of a fan of the outlaw. New camp seems to be going very well.

Never trawled the website so thoroughly!
 
Just got in to an envelope on the counter, containing an early birthday present from the missus.

WOOOOOOO!

Gonna have to miss it as I've got builders working on my home so can't be away for the weekend but I'll be watching and supporting my boy Che Mills and Jimi Manuwa!
 
Headliner Stefan Struve tells @FUELTV that he's been re-measured and is now officially 7 feet tall
Damn! :eek:

UK events always seem to fly under the radar and become overlooked but there are a lot of good match-ups on tomorrow's card. I'm looking forward to it. It'd be nice to have a super fight for once though.
 
Although, saying that, this event hasn't even sold out. It's hard to complain about such a solid card when the UK support for the UFC is so lacklustre.
 
Oh damn, I didn't realise that Gunnar Nelson is fighting tonight until I was browsing the betting odds and saw his name! And he's fighting DaMarques Johnson too; that's a legitimate opponent for his first fight in the Octagon, hope he can pull off the win.

For those of you who don't know who he is, there was a lot of hype around him a couple of years ago after some hugely impressive performances in grappling competitions.
 
My coach (recently received his black belt so can roll rather well too) is mates with him and has said that he is as good as the hype so we'll see.
Johnson missed weight so its at catch weight from what I've heard.
 
Prelims are just starting on Facebook. Anyone know Jason Youngs walkout music? Soundhound isn't working on it as the commentators keep yapping.

EDIT: "Harder than you think"

What a TKO! Less than a 30seconds. Boom.

Wow, gutted for Jason Young. That was a right hand from hell that sent him down. Unlucky but hope he comes back stronger from this.

I'm pumped to see Gunnar Nelson in the UFC. Top fighter, you don't sleep on that guy. Hope he defeats Johnson
 
Two rounds down in my book. He needs to swing for fences now. Hit for boundaries since we are in England :P

Kong definitely needs some better wrestling skills regardless.
