As much as i want Poirier beating the fuck out of egotistical moron markhachev, i hardly see him win... except conor is right and he tires quick from a staph infection.
Almost every Oleksiejczuk loss comes from submission, i got holland subbing him on that one.
Strickland should beat Costa, i don't see him getting knocked out by the sloppy brazilian.

Ahead of the main card, in comes Donald F Trump, escorted by Dana White, high-fiving the crowd, greeted rapturously by Rogan and the commentators, and no mention of recent events.

This shit really puts me off the UFC. Is it a legitimate sporting contest or just some sort of political rally?

for the main i picked islam to win probably by submission I don't bet on fights but man it was tempting to bet on this one i feel like its easy money. i picked costa by some lucky punch or head kick lol if it goes the distance then strickland probably gets it. i picked holland over the polish guy who i don't really know but i remember checking on wikipedia him losing some of his last fights don't know if he is a wrestler/grappler than holland will have problem with that but I still pick holland

I'm in the UK, and we probably wouldn't have this situation here without 'former president' being prefaced by 'disgraced'. Or at least some mention of the recent felony convictions.

Still, I'll pick Islam to win also. I don't know how Dustin got the title shot, really. I don't like those Russian chinbeard guys, they're exhausting to watch - like highly skilled versions of Clay Guida - but they're super effective in MMA.

didn't like they eye pokes but solid win by randy brown probably needs to work on his ground game. wanna see him against a ranked guy next

Olek made a disastrous move which you always see.

Guy doing well knocking opponent down. Instead of striking from atop, The guy moves in smothering on the ground and got caught in an arm bar. Broke his arm limp too. Olek just wouldnt give up!

Olek made the mistake of giving up his arm, then was literally was going to give up his arm to continue fighting. The level of toughness these guys possess just blows my mind.

I think Trump went to these kind of events since the 80s, it was always a spectacle.
