    Aye definitely mate. Him and Diakiese would be a good fight but as a co main. Not sure who they could feasibly get as a main event though.

    Just cant get enough
    I can see us getting a pretty low key one tbh. Was thinking NGANNOU but can't see anyone above him taking that fight in a european fight night. Can see us ending up with a gunnar nelson or something.

    Yeah same here, Ngannou could be interesting actually. Nelson might be due a kinda big name fight now so don't even know if they'll put that on this card. Probably will end up being Stevie Ray

    Just watched the Ray fight. I think he deserved it but it really could have gone either way.

    The American fans should respect him a little for that 3rd round flurry, hard going up against a fan favourite.

    Marc Diakiese confirmed for the TUF 25 finale, ruled out a fight with Stevie Ray in Glasgow

    Ray should want absolutely nothing to do with Diakese. He would walk through him.

    Let's focus on Scottish talent for UFC Glasgow and a few stars to draw us in.

    Stevie Ray calling out Paul Felder on twitter now, that would be a decent co-main

    Watching it just now from the beginning. He can barely speak, but I love listening to him.

    He's right that he deserves respect for beating Conor and that it doesn't make sense that everyone portrayed Nate as some sort of heavy monster and now they are linking him with Ferguson at Lightweight.

    UFC announcing that TUF 26 will crown the UFC flyweight champion and it's open to current fighters in either 115 or 135 if they can consistently make the weight. Gotta think JoJo would be in with a shout for that, likely miss the Glasgow card though.

    Don't think anyone can "school" Maia.

    He might beat him if he avoids the takedown, won't be a schooling though.
