    jo Duffy said he wanted to fight in glasgow after his fight in london, and I am pretty sure marc diakaise will be on the card, so we may see them two in the main event. Would certainly be a * of a fight.

    Not sure they are quite main event material yet. Would love to see them both but not against each other. Duffy is testing free agency too. Forgot about Diakaise, he will get another opponent to knock out and build himself up.

    We have swanson and lobov which a rather low key main event in nashville so it wouldnt be impossible. maybe we would see bisping again against romero if he comes through the GSP fight.

    Tbh its no a huge deal. I just want to see the scottish boys and girls in action lol

    Interesting, Rogan saying this, Schaub disagreeing and look where he is now. I know that video takes the * the way it's cut but Schaub was in denial.

    Marc Diakiese rumoured to be fighting Paul Felder in July. Diakiese wants to beat him infront of the American crowd but I'd love that fight on the Glasgow card.

    I'd love to see Diakese versus anyone in Glasgow!

    Guy is going to be a superstar.

    I have a feeling they will go with khalil rountree as craigs opponent in glasgow. As craigs coming off a loss and rountree is trying to save his career. Sounds like the type of match up the ufc would usually make. Either that or pit him against an up and coming grappler, like jordan johnson.

    That should be an fairly easy fight for Craig as long as he don't * about on the feet he just needs to get Rountree on the ground and it's over, rountree * himself like no other once he's on the ground.

    Glad I never stayed up for the Rampage King Mo fight, see it's a decision win for King Mo so already guessing he just smothered him with wrestling.

    Anybody watching the Cage Warriors? Paddy Pimblett a free agent after tonight, he struggled and should have lost his last fight. Be interesting to see if hes better the night.

    Probably, he talks a good game but is still a long way off a quality fighter. Struggled the 1st round, looked better the 2nd, looked like hed run out of steam in the 3rd, struggled the 4th. Needs a finish here for sure.
