UFC wagering: no longer stuck with the old thread title. The window to change it is here! (2 Viewers)

When boxing is at it's best, there is nothing better, imo.

To me though, there are more watchable fights in MMA than boxing.
 
I'm gonna pimp the One Championships again.
Best part (as an MMA fan) of the ONE Championships is that the fighters fight near their walk around weight.
They don't allow massive weight cuts and officially test during training camp, the fight weigh-in, and after the fight to make sure fighters are within 5%. Not just weight, but very strict hydration testing as well. Keeps the fights more evenly balanced and keeps the fighters healthier.

I haven't finished today's One card yet. Pausing for long breaks here and there. It isn't nearly as wild as the past four weeks. You can find those on YouTube too, but...

This is what I'm talkin' 'bout

What. A. War. Hard to get into boxing matches after seeing countless numbers of these. MMA is better than boxing for raw excitement but it pales overall to Muay Thai.
That guy certainly has moxie...
He does but they gave him an IT guy for his debut. He'll have his hands full at 157. That's actually good size in Muay Thai and some of them are beasts. Name to watch for sure. Another fun thing about this organization and muay thai in general is they fight frequently. My favorite dude is Rodtang. 27 years old. Last fight was against Takeru who looked unstoppable to me. Rodtang's record is 274-43-10. :lmao:

Main event. Two Asian superstars who'd talked a lot of **** for a couple years. Big fan of both but really wanted Rodtang to win.

Rodtang Takeru

They're talking about the fight on UFC Live right now, no mention of it being camceled.
What the heck. Sorry, it went completely off the board for a while and ESPN took it out of the lineup. Have no idea what happened.

Glad it's on, going to be a good fight. 👍
 
Aspinall says he wants to be an active champion and that's great, but active against who? He seems head and shoulders better than anyone else in the division currently. Are there any prospects to keep an eye on? I'm an Aspinall fan, but who's going to test him?

I've heard Alex Pereira could move up but I don't see it any time soon. Maybe Ngannou comes back, but Dana isn't a fan and doesn't want him back.

Top 10 HW contenders as of now are

Gane
Volkov
Pavlovich
Blaydes
Almeida
Cortez Acosta
Tybura
Spivac
Lewis
Tuivasa

Not a lot of excitement in that list.

Aspinall is not that exciting either (;)), but it's so funny that Ngannou called Dana out on fighter pay being pathetic and so he parts ways with him. Wild to not resign an active champ, Dana's a %#$@ but we already knew that.

I guess he has to be careful with the amount of money they spend on UFC fighters since power slap is a massive failure.

That's ugly when you see it all laid out like that. Ngannou is about the only thing that would get me excited and that's if he's been training to fight. I haven't paid much attention to what he's been up to.
 
Paddy has to fight Gaethje before a title shot right? Arman should be up next, but I'm not sure it matters. Topuria looks levels better than everyone.

Van looks like a guy that's going to make a lot of noise for a very long time. What an awesome fight!
 
DDP let it slip that Gaethje v Pimblett is the co- main at 319. I haven't seen anything official so I guess we'll see. Seems the logical fight for both of them as a title eliminator.
Paddy shut that rumor down.
Dang it. I figured it was probably gonna end up BS but i was holding out hope. That's a fun fight if it ever happens. Paddy did look a little "thick" to be fighting so soon.
