Watching UFC 223 right now. Unbelievable drama leading up to this one.

I'd never heard of it. Had to look it up. Sorry, not my cup of tea. But you may have guessed that.

Not my type,sorry

I use to watch it religiously.

Lost my touch a bit and was not even aware of this one.

How did the card turn out after what Coner did?

[–] TexasJack (12515) 6 years ago

The card overall was very good with one early Fight of the Year candidate (Magomedsharipov vs Bochniak).

The main event was surprising because it lasted a full five rounds despite that facts that Iaquinta was outclassed and took the fight on only two days' notice.

Are you a WWE fan as well Jack?

[–] TexasJack (12515) 6 years ago

No. I know it's quite popular. My nieces are big fans.

Nah, never enjoyed it much, too scripted and way too much PEDs. I like to watch real fighting, such as Wrestlemania 34 ;P

I used to until every fight had to become a PPV event.

[–] TexasJack (12515) 6 years ago

I hear you. They seem to do two "Fight Nights" on free TV for every PPV, sometimes more. There are three Fight Nights between 224 and 225.

Often I just watch the two hours of free prelims and don't order the PPV afterwards.

I don't know... something about watching two guys spend half an hour in the missionary position punching each other is just too weird for me...
