I was so stunned by Tex being dropped by the left that I completely missed him using the cage to get back up lol. Makes a lot more sense after watching it back.

 

oof this is sad

 

never thought i’d see a good schaub take

 

UFC 319 co-main is currently “tbd vs tbd” lmao

 

wow what a round!

 

Crazy how that card last night had six finishes in a row followed by eight decisions in a row. I fell asleep and didn’t make it through lol.

I really wish I ever bet on UFC events because I saw D-Rod was a +425 underdog at one time and almost jumped on it.

 

Dana’s announcing some stuff tonight, sounds like Aspinall/Gane at 321 and maybe Movsar/Pico at 319

 

damn 320 is stacked

 

Jiri vs Khalil is a fucking banger.

 

I just said this weekend that this match up would be a worthy Light Heavyweight BMF fight. So glad to see it made regardless.

 

320 is gonna rule. Glad Tom is finally getting to fight but Gane is hard to get excited about lol

 

was torn because i don’t mind RDR but lfg Rob!!!

 

Fun 3rd round. Could have gone either way.

 

I think that was anyone’s fight in the 5th but Rob was out of gas. Pretty incredible fight though!

Rob almost had him finished at one point but I think RDR was grabbing his gloves (don’t think it was intentional and it probably didn’t matter in the long run so oh well)

WWE announced a partnership with ESPN where all of their PPVs will be streamed on a new platform for $30/month


It would not shock me if the UFC takes this route too when they are ready to announce the new media deal.

 

Guessing the NFL/ESPN deal results in RZC and games behind that $30/mo paywall too. Fun times.

 

I would gladly take paying $30 a month for all UFC shows including PPV’s.

 

Huge money. Fighters will still get paid shit.

 

PPV model being dead is incredible

 

Huge deal; will open up the sport to a much bigger pool of people. Should really help grow Paramount+ as well

 

I'm wondering how this will impact the schedule (if at all). Because if there is no PPV deal that they are having to meet, they won't HAVE to have title fights saved for specific events. It might help them balance things out with bigger fights so that maybe we won't have quite so many cards that are completely top heavy.

 

really wild thought lol

 

this would be massive
