Great card, good battles and a few upsets
Volk mauled Yair. Hard to see where the next challenge is at this weight
Hooker turned things around after a tough start. Not sure how that was a split decision, at least the result was correct. Finished the fight with a broken bone in his arm (the same wrist that cancelled the last fight?)
Du Plessis winning is great for the division
Happy I was wrong about Lawler

@MN5 hes terrible aye....
Dircus looks horrendous on the feet and scores a powerful KO win haha.
Really looks like an amateur. Tough though, Like a Vettori who can actually hurt people. May give adesanya Trouble but just seems way too stiff and slow.Volk way too good. Great win for Hooker chin seems to be back.
Really classless. That bizarre racist rant was cringeworthy. Let the man have his moment for fuck sake. Beating Whitaker like he did is huge, his awkward defence will be tough for anyone to breach.
Great afternoon of fights, bloody entertaining.
Bo Nickal showed real stopping power.
Hooker showed immense heart and toughness.
Volk too savvy and tough.

Blame the UFC, it was pre-planned. On certain fights they've been bringing in the next challenger/current champ into the octagon to set up the next fight. It has always been cringey. Particularly because one guy is fresh and one guy just had a fight. I've never seen it 'work'

Preplanned or not there wasn’t any excuse for Izzy to act like that. du Plessis on the other hand reacted really well.
What an absolute cock bringing all that race shit into things.

@MN5 this goes back further between them. He questioned how African Adesanya was. It’s dumb shit but it keeps some people engaged I guess
I guess I just long for the good old wholesome days when Mike Tyson said he was going to eat Lennox Lewis’s babies…..
But yeah, it’s certainly made me keen to make sure I catch UFC 293

Fair enough. I guess the promotion did it's job then
I think I'll be dipping out of following the leadup chat though. Two guys deliberately confusing the different uses of the word African (African born, African race, African resident) who probably quite like each other and will be friendly after the bout

100% agree.
Really good card all round.
Izzy’s antics though, geee i cringed pretty hard. Can’t wait to see him and Dricus fight soon!

Unusual for the UFC to put a fight up on youtube only a few hours after it happened. Nice clean shot.
They are going to push O'Malley hard.. he's a twat but they clearly see him as the next big star.
Ian Garry looked good despite not quite getting the finish. Was there bad blood in the leadup? If not, I guess he'll be another polarising fighter.
Ultimate fighter bantamweight final was awesome

Huge result for Suga
Huge result for the UFC
He's Social media catnipAldo was very gracious in defeat, Suga very gracious and honest in victory
Garry had a beef about Magny saying he hit his kids when they arced up
I like Garry, he's very skillful
But he's starting to come across like Darren Till, and we all know how that panned out
Superb FOTN from Katona and Gibson for the Ultimate Fighter Bantamweight Finale
