main and co main could be good ones. the rest of it is like question marks. These are the type of cards that usually deliver though. The hyped ones often don't live up to the buildup while these fight nights create lower expectations and overdeliver. Ironically I rarely watch the fight nights because of the low expectations. lol |

I wonder if their "miscalculation" was lineker downing a jug of water thinking he could lose it in a day. What a performance by Lineker though, that guy is a mini demonic beast gremlin sent to wage war to the death.

supposedly his hotel room scale wasn't calibrated right. resulting in being over a half lb. im guessing they thought they were ok and rehydrated a bit.

I must say, this event was disappointing. I tuned in for the main event because some dude on sherdog was saying that this was a can't miss between the p4p heaviest punchers in the UFC, but the fight was all build-up, no catharsis.
I mean, I get that this is MMA and you can't expect guys to really throw down all the time what with the longer rounds and threat of takedown, but surely all that circling around is ludicrous especially when grappling was a practical non-factor in the fight. Looked like one guy was willing to fight and the other just didn't want to be there. Ended up being a mediocre KB match, only mediocre KB matches usually get yellow cards and admonishments from the ref.

What was cool to me was that usually you can't do much against that kind of constant moving away style and have to simply pick your shots on the entries, and score some sneaky leg kicks when they dont expect it. But Lineker just said: "Fuck that, I dont care that I've been fighting for 15 minutes and there are still 10 minutes to go, I'm just going to sprint at him throwing bombs and eat what counters he throws." I've been watching fights regularly for over a decade now and I've never seen anything quite like it. I've seen guys try it and gas, but Lineker kept going.
