The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- UFC 300 ON NOW

[Vincent Van Goat]

DC told a story to Ariel that there was a Conor fan who he was sitting next to, and when the melee went down, the fan casually went into the cage to check on Conor it's the dude in the plaid suit breh

Keep forgetting Rockhold vs Weidman 2 is coming up. About 2 years too late but excited nonetheless.

I got Weidman here. Luke has looked hella suspect since getting KOd by Bisping. He's got a glass chin that Weidman just needs to touch and he'll be out

weidman better leave those spin kicks at the door

at that random fan in the cage with conor

 

[spiderjericho]

Damn. Eddie is gone. So disappointed. Felt like here we’re still a few good matchups in UFC for him.

@Chester McFloppy needs to chill with all that. He could have gotten hurt.

With Canelo's new Dazn deal and Bellator moving their bigger events to that platform it will be interesting to see if this affects UFC's PPV model moving forward. Outside of Conor-Khabib did any PPV this year do over 1 million buys? I could see them enhancing Fight Pass down the line and charging like $15-20 /month to include live numbered cards.

 

[xbiker47]

Dont most of these cards do under 500k?

 

[jewseejay]

Dont most of these cards do under 500k?

Yup. I think so

Only time they break a milion is Connor. Brock. Rhonda. Prime Anderson

 

[jayt1202]

If this page, https://www.tapology.com/search/mma-event-figures/ppv-pay-per-view-buys-buyrate , is legit then outside of Conor's last 5 fights, they haven't cracked the 1 million ppv buyrate since UFC 207. I'm thinking they definitely restructure the current model sometime next year.

Also really hope this Khabib-Mayweather boxing talk doesn't happen. Khabib would get embarassed much worse than Conor, he knocked down Conor yes but mainly due to threat of the takedown.

Khabib can’t be talking all that talk about only caring about fighting then trying to get a Floyd fight going. If you about that purse then own it, nobody gonna judge. Him vs Floyd would be a **** show, just like Floyd vs any MMA fighter in the octogan would be

 

[sea manup]

Feels like khabib was just fooling around with that Floyd talk. He ran into Floyd’s manager at an event and jokingly cut an Instagram promo.

Ahh I see. I never watched the video just saw a caption of it lol wouldn’t Be surprised if it eventually did happen. I never thought Conor vs Floyd would happen

 

[OTG]

i wish floyd would just **** off go do something else dammit.

 

[getback]

They should do Malignaggi-McGregor at some point.

 

[equality]

They should do Malignaggi-McGregor.

Think Conor would get washed. Conor really just needs to take a safe fight. Another loss and that shines gonna look real rusty

 

[illphillip]

Thought this might become reality when Paulie started barking again after this last McGregor loss.

 

[dman14]

mma or boxing?

 

[illphillip]

I'm guessing boxing because they'd likely both make more money that way and that's where the "bad blood" began.

Didn't know Chick Lidelle was still fighting.

Didn't know Chick Lidelle was still fighting.

He hasn't since 2010 and shouldn't be now but oh well.

son is probably gonna pop for something messing with that stem cell treatment, ish is not regulated at all in the US.

 

[whtascene]

Shame about Alvarez going to ONE, the fights there can be pretty bad.

 

[getback]

My co-worker is adamant about betting against me on the Liddell-Ortiz fight.

I already took $200 from him between the McGregor-Mayweather and Khabib-McGregor fight.

I put $20 on Ortiz for the hell of it.
