Now Covington vs Lawler is a match! A better bout than 240's main event imho. If Covington wins he gets a shot at Kamaru Usman, if not I hope he fights Woodley. Lolol. Those two have been at it for a couple of years now. Cheesy

Clay Guida Shocked

How old is he? This guy is still fighting?
It's a little bit shameful for him to be relegated to the "Fight Night" exhibitions. Even if the lightweight careers are longer than the heavyweight ones, he should rather take his retirement I think.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay_Guida

The Carpenter! Well, 37 is not such a bad age and if he really wants to fight that bad then he knows what he's doing and let's not forget about Manny Pacquiao that is already 40 years old and still making a great debut in his every fight, they can still give the audience a great fight and just like everyone said age doesn't really matter if one got a strong will then I guess then can truly win just using it,

But again analysis would truly consider age as a limitation to a persons strength and a lot may not agree that even a 60 years old fighter can sure win if he is pretty focused about it, Well no one can surely predict what can truly happen.

Dana might be creating a new storyboard for his pet Conor's comeback to be a champion again.

My prediction, Conor versus Jorge Masvidal will fight for the championship of a newly created 165 pound weight division on 2020.

Can Colby Covington Finally Get A Title Shot If He Beats Robbie Lawler?

He should be based on his win streak. It's unfortunate that he is an organization that doesn't really have a standard on who gets the next title fight. If he can finish or win impressively, that will increase his chances. If only Woodley was still the champ, he could have his title shot already.

This looks fun to watch. I think we'll see a lot of blood in this fight Cheesy

Covington wrestling is great to see but a guy like Lawler is hard to take down either. I'm going for Lawler on this one.

I agree that this will be a very bloody match and one the fans will be excited to witness
Here is a interesting video I found talking about if the winner of this match will get the next title fight:

I made some BTC on the Max Holloway fight. I can't believe how good he is with the jab these days. He put a boxing clinic on Frankie, which to be honest needs to retire. Reminds me of a smaller Cowboy these days. Both have kids, which they bring to their fights, and they end up being beaten up into a bloody mess. Not a good look for the family.

Frankie Edward is still fighting really well the only problem is that he is facing a much larger opponent in Max Holloway, Frankie needs to go down to bantamweight and that is his natural weight division in accordance to his height, he is just 5.6 and Max Holloway is around 5.11 and that is a huge height difference and Frankie was fighting all his career against bigger fighters and now it is time for him to think about coming down in weight if he wants to fight further.

Did also made a smaller bet on Cyborg winning by KO so lost some there but the Holloway fight made it a profitable night nonetheless. Either Spencer has a brick for a brain or Cyborg is now becoming washed out and she can't properly KO anymore. I don't get how she wouldn't go down, I was actually laughing at losing money to such nonsense. She was like a female Nate Diaz or something.

After the massive cut on her forehead, Cyborg can finally retire and play as an ork in the up and coming LOTR TV series.

Well even CYBORG herself was shocked with the unanimous decision as she celebrated jumping on the fence!
I dont remember a time we have seen CYBORG take such punishment and it all began with that nasty elbow early in the match

UFC thought "FEENOM" is tough as nails - https://twitter.com/ufc/status/1155329629093150720

Almost a close fight, the nasty cut is a very big plus to spender but much of the fight I think its cybrog that dominates. Still she did a lot of damage aside to the cut, a rematch I think can be negotiated for this match to happen again Spender has a good chance of winning with little push to hit harder. I'd like a rematch.

If there's a rematch Spender would rather fail again if there's no changes of strategy from within. Training is a must for a fighter in order to beat their opponent, for possible rematch fight. Cybrog showed an outstanding performances, and that must be noted by Spender so in the next event positive outcome will be initiated as winning over Cybrog be the hardest challenge.

It's an outstanding performance that leads to Cyborg winning it, But Spencer is a pretty tough one to handle and that is why Cybord got a pretty tough time-fighting Spencer, But if Spencer would want a rematch I guess all she needs is to take on some hard training for her to win against Cris Cyborg, Because I think that Cris Cyborg is a one tough fighter to beat in the woman's division.

But an outstanding performance for Cris Cyborg even though she doesn't take the TKO over Spencer she really plays safely after taking a bad cut from an elbow.

In terms of competition it is a much better main event than UFC 240, Lawler looked really great on his return after the injury against Ben Askren and we all know the controversy at the end and i am not a big fan of Colby Covington either but he usually win fights and has great stamina and it is a good match up as both can last five rounds and it will be a title eliminator, surprised to see that Jim Miller and Clay Guida are still fighting.

You made very good predictions by the way. You were right for the 4 winners of 4 fights. The number of rounds were wrong but not the victories.
Good game!

Cheers buddy, when ever i am wagging a bet on a fight i usually post it here and this fight card was a clean sweep, i never went for rounds for Cyborg in my bet simply because she was coming off a knockout defeat after ten years and i had a doubt what her mind set would be and with Jason Perillo being her trainer she has changed her wild fight style and the measured approach is needed in her rematch against Nunes.

Before the fight Cris Cyborg was not the most handsome woman on Earth, but with that cut almost in the centre of forehead she would have troubles to find a man. Previously she was with Evangelista Santos, but as far as I know they are not together anymore.

Okay! It seems that things are getting intense. I hope Dana make Cris' request do come true because for sure many fans are waiting for this, besides it surely makes more money for him so why not? Cheesy

If ever that match happens and Nunes defeated Cyborg once again then no doubt she is the real GOAT. I'm now excited for the rematch.

Amanda Nunes has defeated everyone in front for her till now which includes Valentina Shevchenko, Miesha Tate, Ronda Rousey, Cris Cyborg, Holly Holm who are considered to be the top fighters in MMA history and she defeated everyone and cemented her legacy and more over she finished all the former champions in quick time, what more you need to become the greatest of all time. I too want to see rematch between Nunes and Cyborg but win or loose Nunes is still the greatest of all time.

For one, longevity, if Ronda or even Carano win after a devastating defeat then they good be all time great as well. But because the lost was too much for team mentality, they suddenly quit. Cyborg though, came back after the defeat and prove that she still have the will. Although at this time, Nunes is untouchable and we do hope to see the rematch to prove who's the greatest.

By the way, Congrats to Holloway as well for bringing an outstanding performance and it's pretty impressive to see that he dominated the fight against a UFC legend. Furthermore, in this fight we saw what factor lead Holloway into victory — the reach advantage. I mean, it was obvious that Edgar can't get close effectively to Holloway because of the huge gap between their reach. He throw punches and make takedown attempts but only few of it succeed probably because he was threatened by possible counter punches from Holloway. Nevertheless props to him for the good fight

Another thing to watch after an event is the post fight press conference... Especially Dana White. It gives you a view of where everything's going, what's next and all that.

Dana White starts around 38:00. Enjoy!
