    @Duluth said in UFC:

    City Kickboxing is building a good roster

    ..and it looks like they have another UFC fighter - Brad Riddell

    Not officially confirmed but it's been reported that he'll be making his UFC debut in Melbourne. He has a Muay Thai background.

    There's a few videos on youtube of him.

    A couple of hype videos are up for UFC 243

    I'm looking forward to Hooker vs Iaquinta as much as the main event

    The kiwi-ish title fight should be fun too

    Hyped for this. Like both fighters for different reasons but I'm leaning towards Izzy for support and prediction.

    Same. Will probably cheer for Adesanya because it’s better for the sport in NZ.
    Hoping for a big card in Auckland next year

    Any predictions for the main event?

    I have no strong opinion.

    Maybe Whittaker? I don’t think he’ll let the fight stay at the Adesanya range.

    If he's fully fit, then Whittaker.

    If not, Adesanya will exploit it quickly.

    Al v Dan could be the fight of the night though.

    In Melbourne for the fight and just watched the weigh-ins. The old style genuine weighing are so much better for the fans

    Aussie crowd strangely quiet. Too early? I assume they’ll be drunk tomorrow despite the early start

    Plenty of boos for Israel

    Ragin Al is tiny next to Hooker

    Adesanya could've knocked Whittakers block off to be fair after that knock-out, and its the measure of the man he didn't - stunning victory

    Incredible results for city kickboxing

    Adesanya’s striking is freakish

    Hooker I thought might squeak a victory against Al, but he did far better than that. So happy about that result, that’s huge for his career.

    Riddell’s debut was entertaining, one of the more enjoyable fights on the card. Shame he didn’t quite get the finish

    Aussie crowd was strangely quiet until the main event. Not a great night for their fighters either

    Now give Auckland a big card in 2020

    Adesanya knocks out Whittaker to unify UFC title

    Adesanya knocks out Whittaker to unify UFC title

    Israel Adesanya knocked out Robert Whittaker with a right-hook-left-hook combination at 3:33 of the second round Saturday in the main event of UFC 243 in Melbourne, Australia. Adesanya unified the middleweight title with the stoppage victory.

    Funny how ESPN always refer to him as a Nigerian, when he appears to ID as a NZer
