The reason I posted the video was actually because of what Askren had to say about the Ali act (especially as this is so relevant right now with the proposed McGregor/Mayweather fight)Askren's got some gums on him if he's saying the UFC's roster sucks (i've not listened to it) he's been fighting cans and scrubs and being an all-round boring bastard for years the floppy haired shite-hawk!
I saw many of his early fights in Cage Rage, I never thought he'd become a UFC fighter despite his high energy exciting style and his one punch Mickey gimmicYup, I swerved the London UFC event.
Have any fights other than Pickett been announced? I saw him get smashed in Manchester, and he's not a pull to buy tickets for me.
Seems that McGregor and Mayweather have agreed terms on a fight and it could actually happen
Anyway regardless of the UFC London card I have my ticket. I went for one of the cheaper tickets but it will be my first UFC live and it's on my birthday. They've now added Gunnar Nelson vs Alan Jouban which should be a good fight. It's not the strongest card but some good fights still.
That's a good pointYou'll love it, the live events are great, make sure you are there for 'Baba O'Reilly' - big names on a card don't always = great fights of course
Dana said he believes the next time we'll see Conor is in the unification fight vs the interim winner. I hope thats the case as that is the way it should be. But we still need McGregor/Diaz 3. Ideally we'd get both fights this year but I doubt that'll happen.
I really dont think a Mayweather/McGregor fight will ever happen. Think thats all just a bunch of bullshit made up by Mayweather to keep himself relevant for a while longer. He knows that Conor will obviously respond to a call out and the internet will always take a minor thing and run with it. Doesnt mean a UFC fight or boxing match will ever happen between the two.
