BMF on the planet event is here!  (almost  Grin)  The video below is a must watch!  There isn't gonna be a bout like this again imo.  Not in a decade at least. 
Rooting for Diaz.  And if you're putting action on him, do it now before the fan boy monies come in and move the line down.
I hope they will carry on with the BMF belt and make it an open weight category and if that happens then we might be able to see some dream matches.
Diaz was flagged and now he is allowed to fight and the tickets are sold out for this event and it shows the level of fans Nate has and the UFC never identified that until he faced Conor in a short notice fight which was a record breaking event.

@NavI_027. Agreed. All the UFC's old stars beat him, not including the controversial stoppage versus Robbie which Ben almost lost.
He should have fought from the bottom and rose the ranks instead of riding his own hypetrain. However, he might be back hehehe.
It would have being a good idea to start from the bottom looking at how things went for Ben but he is signed because of the hype he had and he was undefeated for a long time and he is good in the mic and he was calling out everyone and if you are not able to back that up he will be embarrassed and with the fight he had with Dana White in the past i am sure he will be laughing after seeing all these results, if not all the core MMA fans were blaming White for not giving him the opportunity to perform in the world stage because of a silly fight in the past.

That's the best thing he can do right now after getting humiliated by his last two losses. Or at least stop being braggart and do tons of talk shit, on that way he might got the sympathy of the crowd and reclaim their respect Cheesy.
However, he might be back hehehe.
I believe he will but I hope he could have a decent win by that time. He should work harder or else his "sleeping moments" collection will grow lmao.

I just the hype is over for Ben now, he can't back that big mouth of his because of two successive lost.
That's for sure mate Grin. I hope he is finally tired and done of boasting but ending up lying flat on the canvas. I can't help but to laugh because it's very ironic. How come that a fighter which is good in the ground got submitted seems so easily. If I were him, I'll just return to ONE lol.

“ Fight of the Night: Demian Maia vs. Ben Askren”
Are you serious? I, peronally, didnt like the fight. I wonder if it is possible NOT to choose the fight of the night and pay the bonus Smiley
If all the fights end up in a decision and nothing interesting and two fights end up in a submission they would choose that and it is fair to give out bonus to those fights because majority are not winning huge amounts when compared to super stars, i agree that the Demian Maia vs Ben Askren was not the best fight this year but it was the in this fight card as both these fighters were going at each other from the starting bell until Ben Askren continued his sleeping ways just like his last fight Cheesy.

I think Ben Askren will continue to improve and come back learning from these mistakes.
If you remember Ben Askren retired from MMA and was teaching wrestling in schools before getting an opportunity in the UFC because of the media sensation it created because of social media hype that they wanted to see the undefeated Askren in the UFC and i have no doubt that he is a good fighter and a good wrestler but he was not facing elite fighters as a champion in other organization but in the UFC you will only see killers in the top ten and a lapse of concentrate means you are sleeping.

Pretty much Askren and Maia wants to show everybody that they can fight in a hand to hand combat as well, but pretty much Askren sure have many mistakes when they decided to take it on the ground and yes Maia has a pretty big advantage over Askren it is shown on the third round people have seen the big difference between the two, and yes maybe Askren need to sit this one now he now got two consecutive lost pretty much Maia is a better when fighting on the ground and all have seen this when the two collide.
If they wanted to show the entire audience about their hand skills we all saw that in this fight, it was wrestler against a ground specialist and Ben Askren never faced anyone in his life who has a ground game like Demian Maia and a single mistake to a top level fighter like that will be disastrous and we saw that in this fight. I think Ben Askren will continue to improve and come back learning from these mistakes.

A great fight for both fighters the first round was for Demian Maia giving pressure to Askren with some punches even though Askren is doing some sneak attacks on the upper Maia keep on waging the fist on Askren, While on the 2nd round was Ben Askren had turned the table and pretty sure Maia was slow in this round but still when the 3rd round comes Maia was so crafty with his moves turning the tables against Askren by taking the submission and turning it on until Ben Askren got in a wrong position that Maia take the chance in taking the punches then the submission rear-naked choke on Askren,


Well they decided to have a stand-up fight on the duration of the fight and I think Askren has some success and caught Demian several times. There where attempts on Askren for a take down. Ben was successful with his upper cuts and when the fights goes to the ground,  Maia proved to be the superior one. Askren said that he had a lot of positions that he shouldn't be in the first place, that's why he lost.

I just the hype is over for Ben now, he can't back that big mouth of his because of two successive lost.

With majority of the fights outside EU and US time zones should be advertised so that everyone can watch the match live

I don't know why they don't use simple countdown method on UFC website.
That way anyone in the world would know exact time when event is starting.

I missed several events for this reason only Sad
Maybe someone can even earn by creating website dedicated only for this.

I was a bit surprised with Stevie Ray decision win against Michael Johnson (29-28, 29-28, 28-28).
Before fight I was thinking that Johnson was favorite and odds where in his favor also.
I missed the fights because of the time zone changes and i was expecting the fight to take place later but then when i saw the results here i was thinking what the hell, i was looking for the Ben Askren fight and i am looking for rebroadcast to watch those or have to download it from somewhere.

I wish there was some countdown to UFC events, as I can't track all this time zone changes   Roll Eyes
With majority of the fights outside EU and US time zones should be advertised so that everyone can watch the match live, i never like to watch the matches after learning about the results, but Askren and Maia is a great battle for position and i am waiting to watch that match.

Well, I get quite the lost over there but I somehow managed to take my lost back by betting on Stevie Ray on the Co-Main fight but it is still a great fight and I think Askren needs to make a decision if he may still continue or enough is enough for his career.

Ben Askren is finisihed!
I think this guys should not fight in UFC anymore.
You can see that UFC is top class compared to all other similar organisations

^  Yup...  So I guess he's done at the UFC?  I think he should stick to coaching.  He's a really smart guy imo.
I missed the fight altogether, he is a smart guy and he might consider retiring , unless and until he is able to move down the division or create a new 165 pound division i do not think that he is able to compete with the elite UFC fighters in the 170 pound division and now it is difficult to be back in the title contention as he already lost two fights in a row.
