I approve of this thread.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Excited!

 

[PizzaFace]

Has the weigh-in happened yet? If not what time is it?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I have Cerrone winning because he's been active and has to win a big one of these days.
How about you guys???

 

[bbd23]

Lets go Jones!

its been too long! THE GOAT

 

[serenewarfare]

Best card of the year by a hundred miles.

He lost to Masvidal. He lost to RDA. He lost to Diaz.

Lawler is a monster compared to those guys.

 

[polyh3dron]

Headed to Anaheim in the AM.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

He lost to Masvidal. He lost to RDA. He lost to Diaz.

Lawler is a monster compared to those guys.

Rust.
As long as Cowboy doesn't get kicked in the liver, he has a kicker's chance.

 

[ApharmdX]

I'm rooting against Jones of course but he's taking this, another clear unanimous decision.

Woodley should win, he's too powerful for Maia. KO Rd2

The third and final title fight, Cyborg is going to win by mauling. TKO Rd1.

I think Lawler and Cerrone both have a ton of MMA miles on them so it's a hard pick. Lawler should take this, though. TKO Rd2

Jimi Manuwa by KO Rd1.

 

[Host Samurai]

Finally a decent card on paper. Jones fights usually have a shit undercard. I also didn't know UFC signed Tommaso Ciampa.

Jones is gonna work DC. He's too long, tall and lanky and his wrestling is nullified. The person to beat Jones will be a guy just as big, has good TDD and is striking based. A wrestler will not beat Jones unless its Brock who will toss him.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Rust.

Since coming to WW, Lawler has only lost to champions. Just don't bet on Cerrone

Ceremonial weigh-in will be at 5pm Pacific

[Syder]

Finally a real OT

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

The Woodley/Maia fight is by far the most interesting fight for me.
I have no idea if Woodley will knock him out before Maia fucks him on the ground.
Kind of like if Conor and Khabib fought.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

If Bones is still Bones, DC gonna cry again.

 

[Brinbe]

DC gonna take another L.

 

[Obliterator]

So which of these is the actual OT?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

All I ask of idiot Jones is one thing:
Don't raise your hands up after every round like last time.
Shit's stupid.

 

[Rur0ni]

So which of these is the actual OT?

You're in one.gif

 

[Plywood]

So which of these is the actual OT?

Point to the easy work.

 

[Obliterator]

Point to the easy work.

Yeah this one is much better so I hioe this stays open but I thought miss usually close whichever one is open second.

I just didn't know which one I should post my opinions / thoughts in

 

[ldcommando]

Finally a beautiful ot for this glorious card. Other thread is fake news.

Picks:
Bones
Maia
Cyborg
Cerrone

 

[serenewarfare]

I have Cerrone winning because he's been active and has to win a big one of these days.
How about you guys???

Cerrone sucks against top competition. He folds. He got destroyed by Pettis. Dominated by Nate. Dominated by RDA. Killed by Masvidal. He got a robbery win against Benson and that's all he's got to speak of in terms of victories against top guys. I really think it's just a mental thing. He just doesn't bring it when it matters most. The best win he has recently is against Eddie Alvarez three years ago, and that was Eddie's UFC debut coming after almost a year out.

Exactly.
He's due.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

I've tuned out of UFC for a while and didn't realize this was happening until I clicked here. What a treat, can't wait until tomorrow!

 

[Sinatar]

Finally a real OT

 

[Krappadizzle]

Excited for pretty much the entire card. Hoping for Cerrone to win, Woodley to win, Cormier to win. Would be interesting to see someone take Cyborg down, but I doubt it'll happen Either way, excited for tomorrow. Been following much of the media since it was announced and have jumped hard on the hype train.

 

[gnomed]

Dear lord I have never seen this gif before. I've been blessed today unlike Cormier. Bones is his daddy in the octagon.

 

[serenewarfare]

Exactly.
He's due.

I mean maybe. I kind of hope so. I'd like to see it. I'll be happy either way that fight turns out. Should be a good one.

 

[Chamber]

Finally.

I hope DC has a shoulder to cry on.

 

[PizzaFace]

No stream for the weigh-in?

 

[Sato Koiji]

Conor round 2 KO. Remember this.

 

[DMczaf]

Why is Cyborg allowed to fight again?

Look at that bald red beaming bitch with his May/Mac shirt

 

[RBelong2Us]

The Prelims aren't even on FS1?

Jesus Christ...

 

[kikiribu]

DC is gonna get a lot of his belly fat blasted tomorrow. Probably lose a knee and an eye in the process, if Jones is indeed still Jones.

 

[gnomed]

Is Cain, Daniel-sans Mr. Miyagi after going full Cobra-Kai in last weekend's interview?

 

[BigJonsson]

Haha Lawler looked so unimpressed at having to do the fake weigh in

 

[kikiribu]

Haha Lawler looked so unimpressed at having to do the fake weigh in

He seems emotional about Hughes. He's looked that way all week. The interview he did with Ariel, I think yesterday, seemed so forced it was cringy.

 

[RK9039]

Lawler is a joker lol.

 

[BigJonsson]

He seems emotional about Hughes. He's looked that way all week.

Oh =/

 

[MRrogermoore]

Wont Jones be rusty as fuck? it's been like what 2 years?.

 

[BigJonsson]

That slo-mo shot of Rick Story's nostril blood flow

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

WTF OP.

 

[kikiribu]

Wont Jones be rusty as fuck? it's been like what 2 years?.

He fought OSP last year. It just wasn't a very good fight.

 

[BigJonsson]

rofl Jones

They both got booed lol
