Mean while, Tony Ferguson is crushing quarantine "You've got good old meathead, f—ing fathead Khabib. He didn't want to fight. He ran away like a dog with his tail between his legs. It's the same thing with Conor.(McGregor)

"'I'm gonna be next, I'm gonna be next' is what everybody said. But where the f— are they at? Obviously they're back home trying to quarantine and obviously we're here crushing quarantine."

Woop woop!

Arum trying to keep his feud with Dana going by attacking Dana for fighting to stage UFC 249. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/mma/article-8281883/amp/Bob-Arum-slams-Dana-White-ahead-UFC-249-veteran-promotor-hits-cowboy-behaviour.html?ico=amp_articleInlineText

But Dana doesn't take anything lying down "Listen, I think by now everybody realizes that Bob Arum is a d***head. This guy has been talking (expletive) about the UFC and me for 20 years,

He’s (expletive) bankrupt this guy. Of course, you don’t want to put fights on. You can’t afford to put fights on you (expletive) j*ckoff. You’ve been in this thing your whole life and have completely destroyed the business and the sport. Congratulations, Bob Arum. You’re brilliant,”

So here's the full fight card

Lightweight Tony Ferguson vs. Justin Gaethje

Bantamweight Henry Cejudo (c) vs. Dominick Cruz
Heavyweight Francis Ngannou vs. Jairzinho Rozenstruik
Catchweight (150.5 lbs) Jeremy Stephens vs. Calvin Kattar
Heavyweight Greg Hardy vs. Yorgan de Castro
Preliminary Card (ESPN)
Welterweight Anthony Pettis vs. Donald Cerrone
Heavyweight Aleksei Oleinik vs. Fabrício Werdum
Women's Strawweight Carla Esparza vs. Michelle Waterson
Welterweight Vicente Luque vs. Niko Price
Early Preliminary Card (ESPN)
Featherweight Bryce Mitchell vs. Charles Rosa

Some absolutely fantastic fights. Main event looks an insane fight. Two former champs, Dominator Cruz and Verdum returning after long lay offs. Anthony Pettis taking on Cowboy.

Predictions? Which fights are you looking at the most?

Looking forward to it

I imagine the Ngannou Rozzer fight won’t last long

Pettis Cerrone will be a great fight and of course, Ferguson v Gaethje will be a barnstormer

Shin

Ngannou vs Rozenstruik I hope they go all out. Sometimes these giant fights can disappoint.

Ferguson says he's sharpening the elbows but Elbows are like Sponge to Gaethje.

Will you be watching live?

Will be an all out war between Ferguson and Gaethje, could be fight of the year. I expect Ferguson to win, but it will be very close. I'd love to see McGregor and Ferguson but I don't think Connor would get in the ring with Ferguson, he would be far too dangerous an opponent.

The Conor McGregor of today would get beat by Ferguson, yeah. I don't think he will ever return to the level he was when he put Aldo to sleep.

It's his stamina, we all know he's a banger, but he can't seem to sustain it for 5 rounds. Ferguson on the other hand has insane stamina but also has far more to his repertoire in terms of skills than most of the UFC put together. Some great matchups in the making for the future of the UFC. 👍🏻

In don't want to post spoilers fprbanuone who still hasn't watched but that was a great event.

I'll just leave this one https://twitter.com/i/status/1259326290483609600

That's 4 knockouts in 162 seconds in the Octagon for Ngannou.

Amazing.

Certainly something missing without the crowd.

Yeah Busby, you're right but it's now expected and included in the psyche of the fan. Manyy times I forgot there was no fans.

Also, forgot to mention that Jacare pulled out of this show because he tested positive for Covid, 11 hours before he was supposed to fight.

Amazing power from that guy

Never knew about Jacare

Who was he fighting again

posted on 10/5/20

Wow, what a performance from Gaethje, he absolutely hammered Ferguson. Never seen anyone dominate Tony like that, superb! 👏

He was supposed to fight Uriah Hall.

Enjoy the rest of your viewing Shin. Was a good card.

Wool woop.

But what does this mean for the title scene? Gaethje is now interim champ

Thanks man

Ferreira looked a beast on the ground

I really wanted to see Khabib try and hold down Ferguson, like he does with TF throwing them nasty elbows.

The Werdum Oleinik fight was also a good one

In fact, not seen a poor fight yet

Still got Esparza, Hardy, Price and Stephens’ fights to go

Obviously has to be Gaethje v Khabib. Can't see any other option.
