Official UFC thread

[Shuto Makino]

If you guys like watching the ground game then fair enough, but I still feel a lot of casual fans don't. I guess being able to follow up when someone goes down is a big difference, to be fair, but I just always find it weird when people give it the 'Khabib's so boring' patter (which I'm not saying anyone here did directly). Rolling is a huge part of MMA, but to listen to some people you'd think he was breaking the rules somehow.

Paul Craig gets the W

If he could improve his stand up game he'd be a great fighter.

[Roger H. Sterling]

I really really want to like him but just have no confidence any time he fights. Good win though and probably buys him a bit more time in the UFC.

[Zizou]

I'm the same. He's been on the verge of getting cut a few times and wins his last fight of his deal

Not the most entertaining fighter but if he started to box he'd be decent.

[Shuto Makino]

I've seen Paul Craig cornering at fight shows (never actually had a conversation tbf), and there's just something really unlikable about him Scarily big irl, though - watching on TV doesn't give you a decent impression of just how much of a unit he is.

There's a good documentary on iplayer about Chris Bungard who is in Bellator. Think he's Craig's team mate. Called The Bad Guy.

Rabid tim but he's more likeable than Craig.

[Del-icious]

Is Craig the Jambo?

[Zizou]

You thinking of Lee McGregor the boxer?

[Del-icious]

I thought there was a Scottish guy from Edinburgh who was hertz that got a fight in the UFC but maybe picked it up wrong at the time.

[Zizou]

Danny Henry probably dunno who he supports though.

[Shuto Makino]

Craig was in the youth system at Hearts at one stage, but isn't a fan as far as I know. Don't think Danny Henry is Hearts, although I don't know for sure. Think Chrambo's mates with him, so he'd know.

Bungard has the typical MMA cocky persona but yeah, more likeable than Craig based on my limited knowledge. My teammate Chris Duncan (who's fought and won on Bellator himself) trains with him quite a lot.

Think thats maybe what I was thinking of.

Is Whittaker v Stylebender on PPV tonight or normal BT?

Can't wait for it

[Roger H. Sterling]

Regular BT. Can't wait half 5 kick off though

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I'm Danny Henry's a tim

That was meant to say “I'm sure Danny Henry's a tim”
