Quite possibly one of the worst PPV cards they've put together post-2000s era. if it weren't for Diaz and Ferguson this **** wouldn't sell more than 5k

Been reading this thread from the beginning knowing there would be some LOL moments from AyyLameayonnaise. He did not dissapoint.

Post "Just heard a rumour Holland is fighting D Rod on this card"

Literally within the same minute (time stamps recorded) "Nvm it's confirmed"

LOL. Man had a confirmed bout he had dredged up from big Marcel or somewhere, then comes to the forum and posts saying.... oh I heard a rumour... 

Then confirms it within seconds so he can look like his "rumour" is proven true. Lol. What a hack

Yeahhhh no, that’s not what happened, but nice try. I saw an aco**** o Instagram post the fight was happening, but I didn’t see it was from a reputable source, then I saw the video Kevin holland put out that said he was fighting. Nice try tho bud, keep up the good detective work 😘

Those type of post on this forum are helpful for people who don’t have any social media, like me. 

When I had twitter Marcel was one of the best to follow for those updates, so it’s appreciated.

Why the **** are you acting like Gabe Green is a bad fighter? LoL He had a competitive fight with D-Rod and beat Phil Rowe, those aren’t bad names at all. Also Yohan dropped him twice in their fight and was winning up until he gassed out so don’t act like Yohan got tore up that whole fight either. It’s fine if you have Weeks winning but just give Yohan his dues, just like you gave Weeks his because he hasn’t looked so great either 😂

Yeah I don’t understand that either, Garry is a future top 5 guy so there’s no shame in that loss especially since he was able to go to decision with him while getting tagged up by Garry’s best shots, but I’m guessing it’s just recency bias. But still @AC really needs to rewatch that Yohan/Green fight because Yohan was winning that fight until he gassed out at the last minute of the round.

It is WILD so many people are picking Tony Ferguson. I know nostalgia is a hell of a thing. But what about his past few performances tells you he can move up in weight and fight a pretty massive 170lber who hits like a truck?

Rewatched Melissa Martinez vs Desiree Yanez..... 

How did Martinez get the win? I skipped around but the 1st and 2nd looked CLEAR Yanez. Should've been a draw at worst-case.

Weeks vs. Lainesse
Yohan Lainesse, TKO, R1
Weeks striking is very basic and doesn't have enough power to put out yohan. He will try his usual hold against cage but idt he can control a bigger man. Yohan's Cardio is flaky but he should be able to win atleast first 2 rounds if this goes to decision.

Chimaev vs. Diaz
Khamzat Chimaev, TKO, R1
Both guys are skilled, but khamzat is too ferocious from very first second of the fight. Power double blast to ground and pound, this fight is not getting out of first round. Nathan is very technically sharp boxer with enough grappling and jujitsu prowess to hold off most fighters but he is not physically strong. Strength will be the decisive factor in this fight not skills.

Reed vs. Martinez
Melissa Martinez, DEC
Should be a striking affair, they both do very similar things but melly seems to be more polished striker. Melly has not competed in MMA in a bit but she has competed ar WAKO 2021 and won gold. 30-27 Martinez

I don't really have  reason to pick many underdogs on this card in general, This seem like a card where most of the favourites win, That what most boring about it, It's just not a intersting card, but,I think it going to be violent, But in the same way a Lion vs norman human in the ancient time were violent, It just not alot of fair fight

280 is all competitive fight, Only really mismatch is Yan vs O'Malley, That why is the best card of the year, And this is the worst PPV

Anybody think Tiuliulin can get it done? 

If I remember his last fight right he was going to war just the other fighter was better and Pickett is weird to predict for me.

I want to believe he can get it done, and he’s very live to do it, I just worry Pickett is gonna wrestle him. Tiuliulin doesn’t have tdd but if he can stuff the attempts he could ko Pickett.

I think this card is going to have the dogs barking, that's what will make it a fun card to watch IMO 


And we'll just be hoping and praying Diaz puts Khamzat in a triangle choke.
