It has been a crazy week for all UFC fans and that wasn't because of the Apex card.
Dana White did make a great speech at the MAGA convention on the very last day.

We have a good one coming up this week.
Here is the UFC 304 Manchester VLOG Embedded episode 1 to see what Paddy the Baddy is up to coming up against Bobby Green.

Odds must be right since Curtis doesn't sound convincing, he seems very slow in this video.

Did you guys read the new rules approved recently where fighters can now throw an elbow 12-6 or 6-12?
Before this, the elbow should have an angle but now, even the 90 degrees is okay. And also they can now kick an opponent despite their hands both touching the ground.

This is effective on Oct 1st however but they can not use the cheat sheet to have the advantage while on the ground.
Here's theweasel take on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2kHet38K9E

Finally some real action is back in UFC and it is great to have another event from Europe!
Leon Edwards is going to have big advantage with home crown against Belal Muhammad, and I think he is the favorite, but I am not underestimating Belal.
I dont think that Belal is not such a big underdog like the odds suggest, and I think fight is going the distance with full five rounds.

No doubt Tracy Cortez can go 5-5. Her cardio is strong.
Here is the post-fight interview.
Tracy Cortez after loss to Rose Namajunas: I waited too long to push | ESPN MMA

It's funny how we always know what we did wrong after the fact. When you get punched in a fight and come home, you always think like that . What if I covered my face straight away, what if I kicked him in the balls Cheesy

Guy was on vacation with his wife in Italy but flew back to the US of A to do this for his friend of 25+ years.

Dana white would make a great press secretary. He doesn't take shit from any journalist. I'd love to see him destroy those BBC idiots full time.

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. Petty boarish behavior is common for these lot. So nothing more to expect from such an interview really.

One a more important note which went on last night at the RNC 2024 convention the CEO of the UFC went on stage to give everyone a speech to never forget:

Dana White Introduces Donald Trump at 2024 RNC: Full Speech
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9YVJ5ZOVl4

Guy was on vacation with his wife in Italy but flew back to the US of A to do this for his friend of 25+ years.

Thanks goes to MMA Junkie for taking the clip!
That was a nice speech, a really moving one. We all know Dana White, he talks filled with emotion but this one is so important for him too, and being a good friend for that long is probably the biggest reason for him to stand there and tell his story. Donald Trump will win this one, the support for him is damn strong.

UFC 304 here we go. This week will probably be hyped even though there's a lot happening in sports, especially the Paris Olympics.

I already have 3 picks that I am sure to bet for.
Leon Edwards - Main Event
Tom Aspinall - Co-main Event
Paddy Pimblett - Main Card

I am locked on those names but waiting if the odds will shift so I can maximize the profits if ever it wins.  Wink Still deciding on the other cards.

The odds on the main and co-main event seem to indicate the fight will not go the distance but for Pimblett looks like they are going to have a close fight. King Green is not an easy fight. I don't see Belal winning as well but this channel picked Belal thinking this will be another upset like Belal did in his 3 previous fights.

Anyway, this is Shillan and Duffy Picks for UFC 304

Shillan & Duffy's 3 predictions on UFC Vegas 94 were wrong, Kaynan Kruschewsky, Barbosa and Bill Algeo didn't win it. They got it right about Jandiroba'sground game though and Lemos knows it's coming which indeed the fight ended in an armbar submission.
 
Next is UFC 304 this    July 27, 2024 in Manchester, England. Leon Edwards to defend his title against Belal.  Muhammad Mokaev is one fighter to watch out for.



Welterweight   Leon Edwards    vs.   Belal Muhammad

That is very theatrical of Dana. His tone is still about to announce a new hype fight. It would have been funny if he announced Trump as the greatest of all time Trump! 
Dana back to back with Hulk Hogan plus Kid Rock, democrats can't win this fight.  Grin

This is why the Saudis liked to copy how he can hype fights even the ones that don't make sense but yup everybody likes Dana when he is like this, so it isn't very surprising one day he becomes a republican candidate. Congrats to Trump!

Two English cont talking intimately always have something to talk about and it's mad you know what I meaaan.  
This is Paddy's last fight in his UFC contract and not sure if he will stay in UFC, he does have a boxing offer from a YouTuber though. I have no idea whether it's Jake Paul. But UFC hasn't offered him a new contract. Maybe it's his last but he is hoping he will rank in UFC after Green. If no offer still, I wouldn't be surprised to see this fight canceled, Green will have a pinky injury.

Thanks once again for the info Cabron!
These guys would rather talk about softball and their daughters playing in their tournaments than this UFC ESPN 60/Fight Night Vegas 94 event it seemed.
It is the dog days of summer after all I believe. So after that couldn't watch the rest of the over 2 hours of them talking about an event most are not interested in to be honest.

Actually watched the MMA Guru yesterday and he had an interview with Paddy Pimlett.
That was very interesting to watch since he was getting a large amount of backlash for posting on his social media when England lost the finals of the Euro.
It was due to him having a bet on Spain so to have an excuse for doing that ahead of the Main Event happening in London within a few weeks.
These are the fights we as UFC fans are waiting for and not much interest in the UFC until then.

The odds are very close but they did pick one. Amanda Lemos and Virna Jandiroba had to win each to get back on track to a title shot. Lemos has to try again which she will earn her rematch against Weile Zhang if she wins and for Jandiroba, this will be her first attempt to get close to TS. The winner will fight Zhang and whoever loses is likely done for her serious title contender as Duffy said. Most of their analysis is based on their past fights, but still, they matter.  The names I BOLD are their picks.

This  Shillan & Duffy Duo is from sherdog team. Not really the most appreciated channel overshadowed by the celeb fighters who analyze matches on their youtube channels. The controversial MMAGuru who calls every other fighter a joke/gay has attracted more fans than this channel.

Been watching the breakdowns and predictions of Shillan & Duffy since I'm hooked on what they are saying which I might try parlaying just 3 or 5 picks. Here are their picks. But there are some fights they both disagree on which one. They both have different views on the fighters.

7:49 Mohammed Usman (10-3) vs. Thomas Petersen (8-2)  
18:55 Luana Carolina (10-4) vs. Lucie Pudilova (14-9)
26:01 Loik Radzhabov (18-5-1) vs. Trey Ogden (17-6, 1 NC)   Disagrees with the pick of the other
34:40 Miranda Maverick (13-5) vs. Dione Barbosa (7-2)
45:34 Brian Kelleher (24-15) vs. Cody Gibson (19-10)   Disagrees with the pick of the other
58:10 Jeong Yeong Lee (11-1) vs. Hyder Amil (9-0)   Disagrees with the pick of the other
1:08:31 Cody Durden (16-5-1) vs. Bruno Silva (13-5-2, 1 NC)
1:17:35 Doo Ho Choi (14-4-1) vs. Bill Algeo (16-8)
1:30:24 Kurt Holobaugh (20-8, 1 NC) vs. Kaynan Kruschewsky (15-2)
1:40:13 Steve Garcia (15-5) vs. Seung Woo Choi (11-6)
1:49:18 Brad Tavares (20-9) vs. Jun Yong Park (17-6)
2:02:31 Amanda Lemos (14-3-1) vs. Virna Jandiroba (20-3)
2:18:07 A quick rundown of all the picks
Very nice to see another channel's selections that I hadn't a chance to look at yet.
Always nice to get a different persepective on the same event I will be interested in coming up later in the week.
So thank you for that @cabron !

Just wondering why you hadn't put in their choice for who they think will win the main event between Lemos and Jandiroba?
Or they couldn't decide who will win this bout? Maybe they think they are too close in their performances lately to make a decision on who they think might win.

Saw this article on aspinall--

https://www.mmafighting.com/2024/7/15/24199328/tom-aspinall-soaking-knuckles-in-petrol-every-day-for-ufc-304-hardest-knuckles-in-the-ufc

“When it gets to about 4 a.m., I get my alarm on, I go outside, do a bit shadowboxing in the hay bales — and then I do the old traveler method of dipping your knuckles in petrol for about 20 minutes as the sun’s coming up, and that hardens your knuckles.”
“These are some of the hardest knuckles in the UFC right here right now,” Aspinall said. “They’re like rocks.”

Interesting, has any fighter said they did this before ?

This might be very dangerous as petrol is a carcinogen  Huh

No problem at all @cabron !
That is what having this thread is all about so to learn and share things all and everything about the UFC! Grin
So let's do just that shall we?

Dana White who has been friends with the Orange man Donald J. Trump for nearly 30 years has not mentioned anything about what has happened this past weekend.
As for the last fight night he was not available to do the post fight press conference as he usually does since he was on vacation in Italy from what I recall hearing from someone on a random sports channel mentioned.
So once again: Do your own research as we are all grown a$$ men here! Wink

There was some rumblings that Trump was going to appear at the Denver UFC event just hours after getting shot.
But of course that was debunked and never transpired as a factual occurrence of happening.
He might be a bad a$$ guy but I don't think he would want to defy lady luck twice in one day.

Didn't know Elder/Flowers were asked to come in on just on three days notice.
Maybe they didn't have enough fighters on the card so they needed this one bout to fill it out more to make the alotted time within their contractual admittance to the networks.
Thanks for that info @cabron
The Ball Arena even is just under way and it should be a sizzler in the middle of summer.
They were talking about booking unranked fighters Elder and Flowers on reddit.com/r/MMA and how UFC decided to add them on very short notice.  Flowers is all just showboating but tapped when triangled. The Prelim fights have more finished fights than the main card but the FN is Silva vs Dobber where Dobber got the eyebrow cut because of the elbow.
It was said Denver is the adoptive city of Rose Namajunas in the interview after the fight. Which makes sense I guess that it was her being the replacement for Maycee Barbers.
Believe it was Tracy Cortez who replaced Maycee Barber due to her pulling out of the main event fight with Rose Namajunas:
https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2024/07/ufc-on-espn-59-rose-namajunas-indifferent-about-future-rebooking-maycee-barber-after-pullout-denver

But understandable if you did not realize that if not completely into the UFC scene. No worries mate!

Interesting post fight conference with Thug Rose with her take on Cortez stepping up to take her on in replacement for a main event which was not in her favor at all due to fight camp being on short notice.
"I was very happy with her stepping up and admire her as a god fearing woman and if she continues walking in that path she can really excel and transform her life."
UFC Denver : Post-Fight Press Conference
https://www.youtube.com/live/oF__HCMElCc

It was funny when she was explaining how Cortez was wearing fake eyelashes and if you rewatch that knockout, she actually punched one of them off her eye.
Also how on the scale at the weigh-ins Tracy's camp told her to breath out air so to make weight. Which Rose found that sounded weird aswell.

lol Totally mixed up that Rose and  Barber.
Tuporia vs Holloway is going to be a big fight and as shown seems to be held in Abudabi or not? Putting that BMF belt on the line will make it even bigger. The promo image don't show Max's belt, I guess not.

Holloway gonna be a champ again but as they said, Tuporia can mix his fight plan to beat Max. This fight is opposite to Merab vs Sean where Merab could be an easy target for Sean. Tuporia is fast and might easily take down Max and bring that fight over and over to the ground.

Tracy Cortez after loss to Rose Namajunas: I waited too long to push | ESPN MMA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ptt0UjKckfU


She took too long pacing. She knows it and she admitted it. Maybe she thought it was going to be a long fight and that is why she never went too aggressive. While pacing you must also let the opponent know that you are there. She also said she wanted to be back, and that she wouldn't take too long to rest.
The talent is there and I think she just didn't manage the time perfectly. Also, Namajunas is dominating her on takedown attempts, and that cannot happen the next time they meet or even for other opponents.
Now, that ended her long winning streak.
