UFC 118

florian has won me loads in his time,by far the 2nd best light weight in the ufc and ill be backing him again.

Bets placed

£70 on Couture by KO 11/10

£20 on Florian by Sub 5/2

£60 on Florian win 4/6

A mighty Maynard/Penn double for me. Playing up my Challenge Cup winnings :-)

Smaller interest bets on Winner and Maia.

I'll be taking a toilet break while Randy punishes Toney. It wont be pretty.

Buffer's learnt how to pronounce Leicester. 

lord wrestling.

On Ken Flo too.

this guy is going to burn himself out methinks.

Winner with BJ like take down defence.

BF going to reopen the markets on the prelims?

probably not.

Lentz will get the decision and that makes a mockery of the scoring criteria.  He's not even attempted to inflict any damage, he's just being a limpet. 

has he thrown a punch??

That's what I was thinking.  He's now become my most hated 'fighter' in UFC.  Not attempted a punch, kick, submission attempt...  Just hugged.

Strongest bets?
Approx times of Florin and Penn fights?

I know sh!t about UFC but want to watch it and double the 2 of them.

Penns about 4.30ish

Florian i'm guessing 3.15-3.30

shame theres no hong kong racing...couldve gone straight in that :o

hmmm
pretty late..

Out of beer so guess I'll definitely be asleep for the Penn fight..
Couture and James Toney looks a great fight too!

lauzon was quality

Ruediger aint know what hit him there.

I don't think I've ever seen two fights back to back be so different!

Oh sh1t!!!

Smashed.

mate...you can watch them online tomorrow on mmacore.com

or the replay tomorrow night at a more civilised time.

Damn! Didn't realise the MN Vikings were playing now!
2nd half about to kick off.... will have to watch this, good chance of being awake for the decent fights later now!

Couture/Florian/Penn treble ... yay or nay?

That was more like it.

F*ck you Lentz.

go for it tav.

penn yawning then

doesn't inspire confidence

hahaha loving the intros hahaha

dont be scared homie :D

FFS....that doctor.

whats result in mov market if its stopped on cuts?

good fight

Good bout, pity it was decided by such a sh!tty punch in the 1st

shame for davis that he has rice paper for skin that could finish his career

Diaz is a beast.

Went out on his shield there...

outstanding soccer player :o

3.5 Maynard decision at Kenny 1.7 to win

Can you give that round to Florian?

maynard may have got that with the takedown

Zahavi....chop his arm off with you legs kenny :o

Florian or a tie, Maynard cant have won it

Kenny's brother is really annoying.

lame azz fight

dull

boring

And I'm going for Maynard over Florian, he does seem to have been tight on cutting the weight but he looks really quite determined and think he'll go through Florian and take him down and control him.

Predictable.

Glad i stayed away from that in the end, Kenflo looked like sh*t.

poor show from Kenny there.

Maia by sub 2.30 , lets do it .

any links?

Took a stab at Miranda cos of his striking

Is there many draws in the ufc? boxing over 12 rds usually around 50/1, only 3-5 rounds in ufc, can judges score rounds a draw?

Couture KO/TKO or submission ?

neither

toney by trash talk

The last two fights better bring it...

if a fighter is docked a point then you see the occasional draw

Let the freak show begin...

Toney via armbar would be pretty epic...

toney is a bit tubby

gonna be over

9 months training and zero takedown defence

utterly embarrasing

Oh dear, stop this.

didnt know how to tap properly imho

He verbally quit and then denied it, that's the impression I got.  Only bought him 20 seconds.

yes waved his hand at the ref lol

That fight was a joke but wasn't expecting it to be that much of a joke, might as well have fought some random bloke from the crowd.

I could have defended that take down better.

I'm sure Randy stopped and said to the ref that Toney had verbally quit.  But then carried on when Toney denied it. 

A pity it went as expected.

baffles me how he bewildered he looked at it all

every man and his feckin dog knew takedowns were of paramount importance

im not sure he took the training seriously

its the arrogance you see in many boxers I mean surely to fcuk they can get themselves in shape, something you rarely ask about an mma fighter ( Big Country apart).
Its as if they believe that despite not being in shape and despite not training, the skills they posess will be more than enough

I think age had a part in it.  He was hardly nimble.  Looking forward to watching a replay of the takedown later.

I completely fell asleep somewhere in the 1st round of that maia fight. woke up and penn is walking WTF :o

seriously.

You didn't miss anything mate

Toney fight was an even bigger epic fail than expected...

Penn by sub come on

Penn gonna catch him sooner or later

wtf has happened to BJ[:o]

backed franki @ 3.9 and greened at 2.54 :D easy

wander bj gettin dun here

another take down from edgar

RIP BJ Penn by the looks of it.

Has nothing.

stamina never been bj's friend

dam shouldnt have greened so early

Suspended ahhhh

oh dear takedown from bj could be in trouble frankie

or not

BJ looks a shadow of his former self.

Also, he needs a new camp, his corner is truly shocking, Rogan was right, their advice was just pointless. All yes men.

Personally think he should retire. He doesnt need the money and it would be shame to see him keep losing which is whats going to happen if he carries on with that attitude.

One or two nice fights for him though...Penn-Gomi would bring in the PPV money.

Interesting comment from Dana about Ken Flo being a bottler. 

Tell u what...Ross Pearson would be happy at the way the division is shaping up.

Something definitely off with Penn, what happened to the BJ who would enter the cage slapping his face, looking like he was about to tear his opponents head off... If that is what a pumped up and motivated Penn looks like these days, he should, like you said just retire. He had zero energy and had nothing. Maybe Frankie just has the style that will always beat BJ and has nothing to do with BJ looking off or under motivated....

And the advice in between rounds after watching it again was even more terrible than at first, 'Go get that c0ck-sucker', 'F*ck his speed', 'He took something from you, now go get it back'.....

I also thought about a Penn vs. Gomi rematch. Think we may see Penn back at WW though.


Watched the Couture Vs. Toney fight back aswell, at about 2.08 in the round you can hear Yamasaki say to Toney.... "You know, why dont you tap out...... huh?.."

Really disappointing fight from Florian, too bad. And what a **** advice to give Penn indeed

wonder if bj will talk $hit now or whether the bj lovers will say he won that fight too? Frankie Edgar the UFC lightweight champion.

poor show from winner,could have escaped being hugged by lentz a few times imo,maybe his infection had something to do with it,he'll be back anyway. I wouldnt celebrate if i had won by holding someone up against the side,pathetic and boring,please dont put him on our screens again Dana!

Florian didnt really have an answer for maynards wrestling,still think kenny is the more talented fighter,just a case of another wrestler holding someone down and not really doing much.

Will the plastic irish man be dropped now? He gets mucked on nearly every single time he fights.

my man Soti is coming for the LW title!

Will the plastic irish man be dropped now?

At least he brings a decent fight nearly everytime you see him, I'd rather see him lose again than see Lentz ever again given the choice.

118 was fairly pish- Not even a KO of the night bonus!!

so would i $wordfish,i dont really like the guy but at least i see him get smashed everytime

yeah 118 was a bit poor,didnt help with Ken Flo getting beat either

At least Toney was shut up though!

Ken Flo let me down on a 5 Fold never seen him look so poor! Toney was a joke! hahahaha so obvious! BJ is finished but Diaz looked the nuts! love his hunger during a scrap! always looking for summin! Wasnt the best event must admit but still better than watching some of that $hite Don King promotes!

As thought, Penn is going back up to WW and fighting Hughes at 123.
