UFC 209 on Saturday and it's a good 'un: Tyron Woodley vs. Stephen Thompson TITLE FIGHT Tony Ferguson vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov Mark Hunt vs. Alistair Overeem Rashad Evans vs. Daniel Kelly Lando Vannata vs. David Teymur UNDERCARD Mirsad Bektic vs. Darren Elkins Paul Craig vs. Tyson Pedro Mark Godbeer vs. Daniel Spitz Marcin Tybura vs. Luis Henrique da Silva Luke Sanders vs. Iuri Alcantara Albert Morales vs. Andre Soukhamthath Cynthia Calvillo vs. Amanda Cooper Particularly interested in Woodley vs Thompson 2 (Thompson to take this one by stoppage. KO headkick probably). And Ferguson vs Nurmagomedov (Nurmagomedov by GnP). I'm really hoping Khabib does for Ferguson firstly because I think Ferguson is a knobhead but mostly because I'm dying to see Nurmagomedov vs MacGregor. In other news George St Pierre is set to return against Micheal Bisping. Can't be easy for people like Jacaré, Romero and Rockhold watching GSP walk straight into a title shot against the most vulnerable champion on the roster. All available to watch on Sunday, when you get up stinking of farts and ale, here: www.allfreefightvideos.com

Looking forward to Hunt v Overeem, always get a battle with Hunt even though he's not the most technically gifted. Overeem has the power but not sure the heart is there.

As much as i like Bisping he's taken some beatings in the last few fights. Can't see him lasting much longer as champ.

You should be appreciating them for the dedicated and highly skilled sportsmen that they are instead of objectifying them like this, you sexist pig.

I'd have bet my house on Brock losing - he's shit. Once he gets hit he turtles up and Hunt can really bang. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to find out that fight was rigged. Hunt's too old and not good enough to get a title shot so it would have been a big payday for him. Brock brings in the numbers so I could see Dana White bunging Hunt to take a dive. It's all irrelevant now anyway since Brock was found to contain more 'roids than Overeem's gym bag.

I will bow to your superior UFC knowledge since I don't really watch it, apart from looking out for McGregor's results and how the wrestling contingent like Brock and Punk get on, but Brock was the champion and has a good record, he can't be that bad can he?!

Yep, he was terrible. The heavyweight division is the shallowest in the sport and every time he came up against someone half decent he lost. His record is five wins and three losses. One of those wins was against Min Soo Kim who was flat out fucking terrible and another was against Randy Couture who, although an all-time great, was a comfortable 205lb light heavy weight while Lesnar struggles to get under the upper 265lb limit for heavyweights. It was a total mismatch. Shane Carwin dropped him then inexplicably failed to capitalise and subsequently gassed. Brock was pushed to the front of the queue because he was a big payer for the sport and sold more PPV's plus, even by the standards of the heavyweight division, it was shallow then. As soon as he faced a decent heavyweight in Valasquez he got mauled and he turtled up against Overeem too. Brock would get eaten alive by (off the top of my head) Velasquez, Dos Santos and Werdum and even Big Foot Silva would most likely beat him but he'd probably make top ten through lack of competition. So no, he's just not very good.

fair enough. he's done now anyway after the drug scandal. which I'm genuinally surprised by. I think he only got a one year ban from the Nevada licensing people so it'll be up to the UFC as to whether he fights for them again. Which he will simply due to the PPV sales. I'm dying to see him take a beating but he quits before it comes to that.

I think he thought this martial arts game would be easy but it hurts when the big guys "really " hit you. Once he realised his WWE moves don't work in the octagon he has little to offer other than Dana White likes him because he sells pay per views.

I think actually getting hit and getting hit like a truck had Brock shitting his britches. Watching him turtle against Valasquez and fold like a pack of cards against Overeem was embarrassing. If only he'd stand up long enough to take a proper beating.

Watching the Bisping GSP pre match bollocks. Can't decide whether Bisping is funny or an embarrassment. Seems to be permanently angry. Doesn't do the trash talking very well. Just swears a lot.
