Who's going to be watching this then? Is it just me and Ziggler?

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Stopspot mentioned it in my status I posted.. so maybe him.

Hey, if not it won't be the first time me and one other guy were discussing a UFC event lol.

The last UFC PPV was just me and Seabs for about 5 or 6 pages

 

[Saylor]

I guess people aren't into UFC. I want to get into watching UFC, so I guess this is the perfect time.

Just me and you, hey? tunga:

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Seabs and Crayo generally watch the PPVs.. we should get some more interest in the PPV next week with Jon Jones fighting Rashad Evans.

[Saylor]

The stadium looks nice . Hopefully you can teach through the steps of UFC, sometime tunga:.

If you have any question about anything feel free to ask. I love new fans who are willing to learn about the sport and am more than happy to fill you in on anything I can.

First fight prediction: Picket by submission. Probably a choke, perhaps a guillotine.

The little guys are non-stop action, so it should be a good fight.

Ah, thank you very much mate. It's great to see that you're offering to help.

I don't know any of these UFC fighters, shows the lack of knowledge I have of UFC. All in all, I expect something entertaining .

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

These two are going at it. Great pace

Page was winning the standup IMO, but he probably lost the round by getting taken down 4 times. 10-9 Picket

Also this crowd is hot

Honestly you would have to be a hardcore MMA fan to know most of these guys. Casual fans probably only recognize maybe half of the names on the card.

 

[Saylor]

That was a nice double leg slam, so far the match is going good .

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Damn, dropped his ass with that left

 

[Saylor]

Wow, that was a shot. I thought that match was going to be over.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Goddamn what an uppercut

__________

Rear naked choke. Page was gassed.

Great showing for Picket. He should be in line for a 135 lb title shot soon.

Really exciting fight to start the card though.

Very nice uppercut. It's an entertaining fight thus far.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I don't really know much about John Maguire.. he only has one fight in the UFC. I've never really been impressed with Johnson, so idk what to expect from this fight.

__________

UFC is worse than WWE with all of these damn commercials.

__________

Great exchange on the ground there

__________

lol Bret Hart is this guys hero

__________

Really nice groundwork from both guys.. tough round to score.. I'll give it to Macguire 10-9

__________

Macguire looks like he could make 155 easily. He should try his hand as a lightweight IMO

__________

Wow that was a fucking great transition to the armbar.

Really fun fight, lot's of great technical work on the ground
