Yeah, should be a fun PPV. I wish the undercard were a bit better but oh well, gotta see this main event.

Makhachev will smesh. I want Dustin to win though, obviously. That guy rules.

Gall v Hafez was a banger. I like Hafez a lot, hope he goes far.

A lot of MMA is boring these days to be honest. Bring back Pride rules. And the shrieking Pride announcer lady.

Wow, great main event. Poirier took it to him like few ever have.

Apparently Makhachev had a staph infection as recently as 2-3 weeks ago, which is why they brought in Khabib to corner him as they were understandably very worried about the outcome of the fight.
Absolutely insane if true. Staph is some serious shit.

The UFC is coming back to Denver for the first time in like eight years. I just looked at tickets and...yeah, I feel priced out of most big live events these days. Just can't justify dropping that kind of cash, especially since the card isn't super exciting thus far.

The wider MMA fandom is cringey as fuck and I would never go to a live event tbh. But yes, expensive.

i feel like there's a greater than 50% chance of getting into a fist fight at a ufc event. i'm embarrassed to even tell some people i follow this sport, honestly.

If I worried about being associated with any fandom at all, I wouldn’t tell anyone I liked anything. Lots of MMA fans are morons but all fandoms are garbage, it’s not worth worrying about

The main event is worse but overall the card is much better now IMO. Ortega v Lopes and Ulberg v Smith are bangers

This card fucking sucks so far. And last week was even worse. Time to end this weekly ESPN deal, please. Too much filler on the roster.

I'm watching this whole card. Not because there are any fights that stand out, but because the timing is right, and Mighty Mouse's (Demetrius Johnson) podcast has reignited my interest in the sport.

Welp, Belal Muhammad just Khabib'd Leon Edwards for the belt. It feels like MMA has been "solved", and it kinda bums me out.
