Stipe's run has been fairly sweet, as I like how this lesser-skilled (but obviously still very skilled) and fairly likeable dude broke the HW defence record and is currently 5-1 in HW championship fights. Considering how fractured, changeable, and at times weak, the division has been, Stipe has become one of my all-time favs in it and of any division. I like Cormier too and could easily write as much about him. So I'll be happy with either winning the possible rubber match.

I've always really liked Stipe, if you could understand what he's saying I think there'd be much more hype around him. He's a killer in the octagon but humble, respectful and down-to-earth.

Hahaha, classic Nate.
So glad to see him return after so much time away and get the win too.
It was a great event last weekend, some fantastic fights and a huge comeback by Stipe.

 

[Craterloads]

I like Stipe. He took his loss with a lot of class, then put the work in to come back and take his title back.

Really? I’m sure he bitched about it for years and refused to return to the cage until he got a rematch?

I always liked Chael, but his voice is so annoying haha

There's like a 45 minute interview of Nate on the lead up to UFC 241 where he speaks about life and fighting. Surprised he could sit still and focus for that long. He's definately a character.

 

[mid_gen]

Dang, great atmosphere in Shenzhen, both main fights good.

How do you get UFC in the UK? I've got quite used to spending my Sunday afternoons watching it...

Literally thousands of comments from people complaining about BT sport making mediocre events PPV. Can't blame them, false advertising from BT.

 

[iMacMart]

So if you have a pay for BT sports you have to pay additionally for this fight?

Sadly, whilst people are very vocal about how crap the policy is, you can bet your bottom dollar that plenty are still buying it regardless.

See also "never buying FIFA again", "never buying a game with DRM" etc.

Fights like this though that kick off at a good time, I had to buy it.

I'm annoyed still.
