Well, looks like it won't happen after all! Ferguson's hurt and Holloway's replacing him. That definitely changes things!pieceofme wrote:I just hope it happens!dmbrocker wrote:223 predictions, boyos?

I'm thinking Khabib, but I think Ferguson is getting underrated. He most definitely has a chance.

He is, though at this rate we may never see a Khabib/Ferguson bout. Makes me wonder if it's just a coincidence or they're both avoiding each other and making up excuses...pieceofme wrote:I was hoping it was an April Fools!!dmbrocker wrote:Well, looks like it won't happen after all!

I didn't realise Holloway was ready to fight!
It is a coincidence. An annoying one at that. Dana White says he is never booking the fight again. 4 times it has been cancelled!dmbrocker wrote:He is, though at this rate we may never see a Khabib/Ferguson bout.

This card is cursed! loldmbrocker wrote:Holloway's out and Conor pulled a dick tantrum and might be banned. UFC's a mess right now!
Well he beat Wonderboy! I just hope he makes weight for the Woodley fight.pieceofme wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2017 3:49 pmI agree. Unfortunately.burt1098 wrote:RJD brought it to Lawler for 5 rounds. Damn that was impressive. However, I think Woodley destroys him no problem.
Who can give Woodley a run for his money other than another Thompson snoozefest? Covington could barely handle Maia's standup. Woodley would eat him alive.
Maybe Till, but he needs a big fight against a legit top 10 contender.
Also, Lawler's leg was fucked up in the second round. Impressive he lasted the full fight.
Yeah, and McGregor's corner man gets knocked the fuck out, too! Badass!
The great metal sludge MMA geniuses back in action.............
That's what I thought too until someone just posted a clip in slow mo that clearly shows Cain's head snapping back from a punch right before his knee gave out. The punch was kind of similar to the one Henderson landed on Fedor as it was barely viewable due to the camera angle. I'm pretty sure a half uppercut by Ngannou would be enough to knock out most.
True, but Cain's facial reaction was not that of being knocked out by a punch. I'm sure it hurt! But the knees blowing out was the big reasonEarl Skakel wrote: ↑Tue Feb 19, 2019 4:14 pmThat's what I thought too until someone just posted a clip in slow mo that clearly shows Cain's head snapping back from a punch right before his knee gave out.

Yeah it was probably a combo of the 2 for sure and with Cain's scrambling ability he might have gotten out of that mess but with Ngannou standing over him 1 clean shot and it's over. Cain looked frail to me, I know it's strange to say that about a 250 pound guy but he didn't look healthy to me.pieceofme wrote: ↑Tue Feb 19, 2019 6:02 pmTrue, but Cain's facial reaction was not that of being knocked out by a punch.

And his skin looked kind of yellowish to me which could be any number of things. I can only imagine the germs these guys and girls pick up rolling around on a mat and in MMA gyms which given the volume of people who train there are rarely 100% clean.pieceofme wrote: ↑Tue Mar 12, 2019 7:32 pmI agree.Earl Skakel wrote: ↑Tue Feb 19, 2019 11:04 pmYeah it was probably a combo of the 2 for sure and with Cain's scrambling ability he might have gotten out of that mess but with Ngannou standing over him 1 clean shot and it's over.
