    Islam will be too much for Alex the midget.

    Poirier v Chandler round 1 is crazy. You get certain folk that are always in entertaining fights and Chandler is one of them.

    Rumble dead at 38, real shocker that even with it being the end of a long term illness.

    Of course Paddy got the decision.

    But there’s no doubts he lost that fight, had a Gordon decision, if it was going to be close then Paddy was getting it. Too much of cash cow for them. Annoying * and bang average fighter.

    Darren Till is nowhere near the fight he, or many others he’s duped, think he is.

    He thinks he’s elite, he’s almost the definition of a journeyman.

    Yeah he’s absolutely bang average, barely top 15 if that.

    Every single media scorecard was scored for Jared Gordon over Paddy - Paddy wins (mmadecisions.com)

    Every single media scorecard was scored for Ankalaev over Jan - split draw.

    Mad that Paul Craig has beaten Ankalaev and Jamahal Hill.

    See your man Zion Clark with no legs, he’s obviously inspirational as *.

    But what’s the craic with strikes, he must be hard to hit? Once he’s got your leg you’re *.

    I’m not even being a * it’s genuinely a very weird advantage alongside all his obvious disadvantages.

    Yip, he’s a grounded opponent but as you say try and argue with the guy that’s had his life that he has an unfair advantage at anything :56:

    MMA is usually pretty close to a “real” fight.. but with your man with no legs.. in a real fight someone trained would just kick his head clean off his shoulders
