I'm inclined to agree with you both - the trouble is that I've yet to see accurate and powerful striking outside of Jędrzejczyk in the women's division!

Tate seemed to make a little headway in her last fight with Rousey at striking but then inexplicably went in close and got caught!

ronda looks hot at that weight to be fair. Think ronda will win easily also.

Jędrzejczyk is light years ahead of womens striking, i'd even say she's more technically advanced than some of the blokes!

Not that excited about this card, was more looking forward to the last fight night!

Definitely not staying up to watch it.

This is not going to end well for Correia.

Rousey looks focused, determined, resolute.

Correia looks over-anxious, jittery, frightened even.

I've seen stare-downs like this before, and they always end badly for the agitated fighter; Belfort-Weidman comes to mind as a recent example.

Fight is going to look something like this:

Many people watching tonight?

cainer · 2 Aug 2015 at 01:44

im watching, not sure if il make it to 7am though

nemtizz · 2 Aug 2015 at 01:53

Aside from the main event and Struve-Nogueira I really couldn't care less about any of these fights. It's going to be brutal but worth it.

cainer · 2 Aug 2015 at 02:03

they normally show some highlights of the prelims at the end on the PPV show, so as it finishes at 7am i expect the main event to be in the cage ~6am
but even thats still 4 hours away

lol

richthomuk · 2 Aug 2015 at 02:11

some of the fights have been alright, nothing special so far though.

nemtizz · 2 Aug 2015 at 02:25

I think Pat Cummins just murdered Feijao.

cainer · 2 Aug 2015 at 02:31

i wish BTsport would stop repeating the same adverts :/

Forgot all about Magny-Maia. This should be a good 'un!

seems a bit one sided so far

Yeah Maia absolutely schooled him with ease. He's a wizard on the ground, man.

He did well to hang in so long, all be it saved by the bell on the arm bar attempt

Dear god these next 2 fights are going to be painful. There's absolutely no reason for them to be on the main card. Might call it a night.

cainer · 2 Aug 2015 at 05:05

i thought the same so popped round McDonalds, seems i missed a war by missing the first one

EDIT: 2nd one sucks a bit, shogun next then the main event
