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

[spiderjericho]

I could not believe how hard Dana dodged that current event question and no one is pressing him on the issue

Can’t press him for anything. Hard questions are to be avoided.

Just that he’s the only show in town. This isn’t easy. This is the hardest thing he’s ever done. There’s no gate. No concessions. The fighters are still getting paid. There’s a pandemic. The world is crazy. But fight island is real.

On one hand I’m a huge MMA fan. On another...it’s just blatantly obvious and im ignorantly complicit.

Vince is right. Next few cards are trash. Wonder what the next move is...

I think the co headline for fight island July 11th is going to be yan vs aldo and that rose rematch.

Really hope Dana can pull off a miracle and get Izzy vs Costa

Also, did anyone peep that one reporter ask Dana some question that really bothered him and he followed it up by saying due to all the madness in the world right now a lot of the media is going to get laid off.

[Vincent Van Goat]

Yeah a number of writers for The Athletic got let go. Chuck mindenhall and josh gross at least

It was one sided throughout

The Man with the Hat.

That sucks. I hope he lands on his feet soon.

Dana was being petty but also conveying a grim reality of COVID.

You guys see Andrew Yang was tweeting about the fighter situation on twitter?

YANG GANG

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Can we get sean o’malley a ranked opponent please?

He’s sneezing on guys and they going down at this point!

Cody looked good, reaaaaal good.

Man pretty happy for Aljo, I remember he was on the verge of leaving the UFC to go to bellator at the end of his last contract, I know he was unhappy....good to see him put his head down and put in the work. He’s definitely earned everything he gets from here on out.

 

[imasoleman18]

one thing i dont care for about cody is his "show off tactics" dont hit someone and rock them then point and stop going for the kill

 

[xbiker47]

Who do you want to see next for O'malley?

 

[spiderjericho]

I guess ranks 13-15. Marlon Vera...maybe.

And those rankings. Jeez. P4P is so jacked up.

 

[steevoo1]

I'd say Chito since they were suppose to fight and talked a lot of **** to each other already

 

[misha]

Who do you want to see next for O'malley?

Give him Cody stamann
OR jimmy Rivera hes needs a big step up in competition

Hope DC wins the fight and retire on top

 

[Cashflow]

 

[steevoo1]

Wow that main card is ****ing fire. Ribas coming out party .

Guessing Izzy/Costa maybe September?

DC says he been training with Mark Henry while in Vegas and Mark will be flying out to AKA to help him for this camp. DC don't want anything to do with them body shots again

 

[atransta]

damn Costa still need more time healing?
