Still can't pick between Darren and Kevin.

I am picking Kelvin Gastelum to win the fight as Darren Till is moving up in weight division after having losses in 170 pound division
~

The moving up in weight is one thing to consider. The strength and power of a natural middleweight might come as a surprise for Darren. We could also see a repeat of what happened to Rockhold and Weidman when they moved up.

For anyone interested with Marvidal's preparation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apUcpvkrfh0

I think this will be very interesting event and I hear that even president Trump will attend it.
Maybe some fighters will be extra motivated.

SO many fights I want to see like Nate Diaz, Derrick Lewis, Gastelum...

Donald Trump is a fight fan for a very long time and he even owned Affliction MMA and majority of the early MMA fights were conducted in his tower when no one was giving space for the early UFC events to be even conducted Donald Trump welcomed them in his building and hence he has a history in the UFC and the sport of MMA being this big and now Trump being the president even he wants to see the BMF belt Cheesy

I don't really post on this thread but I was surprised to see a sitting US president attend an event like this but I'd say when you look at Trump's time in the wwe it's really not surprising at all.With him billed to attend the game, I know for a fact that a lot of Democrats are going to attend just to boo at him just like they did last weekend.

I am picking Kelvin Gastelum to win the fight as Darren Till is moving up in weight division after having losses in 170 pound division and he is basically a striker and Kelvin Gastelum was never stopped in any fights and his fight against Israel Adesanya was a display of his chin to hold up even after getting blasted multiple times and he has the wrestling pedigree to defeat Till in his Middleweight debut.

Anyway here it is! This event is def stacked! At first glance my picks are Diaz, Gastelum, Thompson, Ivanov, Gillespie and Walker. No idea about the rest tbh.

I am yet to place a bet as Jorge Masvidal is on a winning streak and both are durable fighters and i am confused on who to bet but the Gregor Gillespie fight depends upon how Kevin Lee rectified his issues and what changes he made to his arsenal and his stamina is a big concern. When it comes to Johnny Walker whether his shoulder is completely healed after his post fight celebration is to be seen in this fight.

For a second there, I thought Kevin was sparring with Ben Askren Grin

Still can't pick between Darren and Kevin.

KG is supposed to be mauling people because of his good wrestling background but it seems he prefers fighting stand up now which is kind of more dangerous for him. He did well against Adesanya but when he goes against a superior striker, he'll most likely lose. We all know Darren is really good with his striking.

A must watch video indeed.

This is probably the best first three minutes of all UFC videos and it reminded me of that time watching the very first UFC tournament.

As for Jorge and Nate, it's tough to pick between the two. It will probably go down the distance and the fighter who is better conditioned will win via unanimous decision. We all know Nate still has a tough chin and some crazy cardio.

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.

Exciting fight. Both are bmf champions on their own ways. These guys especially Nate know how to sell tickets. They are not the best in their divisions but these guys can earn bigger than some UFC champions. It's like Connor McGregor, everybody want him because he is bigger than any other MMA fighters.

@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

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

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
