[No More Sorrow]

The weigh ins are on in two hours, and the last episode of the Diaz/Condit special airs tonight for anybody who's interested in either one of those.

 

[Dale]

I'll catch the weigh ins tonight hopefully if I remember then probably catch the last prime time some point tommorow when it's on YT.

Here's the weigh-in video it starts at 11:45

Rather uneventful other than Pierce wearing a Koscheck wig which seemed to rile him up

 

[No More Sorrow]

:

The wig was pretty funny, and Roy Nelson's mullet is pretty sweet.

Primetime Episode 3
​

 

[No More Sorrow]

Thought this final episode of the special really delivered, the last few minutes of it pumped me up for the fight even more.

Also : at Diaz trying to convince people he's not crazy.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Really wish this show was on sooner, prelims don't even start for awhile.

 

[Andrew]

I'll probably watch on stream or at the local pub.

I believe Diaz will beat Condit here, not an appealing card but it'll do I suppose.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Well the main attraction to this card is Diaz/Condit. First time since, 2007 somebody other than GSP will be wearing the welterweight title.

Really hoping It's Diaz, the guy is a machine and to finally see him and GSP fight later this year would be one of the biggest fights ever.

 

[Dale]

tbh, I think the main 3 fights are pretty damn appealing. I hate Koscheck but he should make for a good fight with his heavy hands and Nelson always seems willing to slug it out. I'll be watching for sure.
