I don’t mind them promoting in Europe, but man I like watching the ladies fight.
I never thought I would, but 9/10 times, they deliver. It might even be 10/10 times, I don’t know. I can’t think of any women’s fights I didn’t enjoy. I confess that i do not like watching women’s anything else either.
I wish they would broadcast it to US, I hate to have to resort to...
There have been a few I thought were boring, but yes I like them too. In a few years when the skill level of the average fighter is higher....
Anyway I’ve got Jerder..Jerjach....the Polish girl. ;p
And Dennis Siver in the co-main event.
It does look like Aldo is pulling out though it isn’t official yet.
As for any possible replacement foe for McGregor, people think that Diaz is just trolling Dana White. LOL.
In light of recent reports regarding the status of UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo, UFC has received official medical confirmation from several doctors that Aldo did not suffer a broken rib. Following a review of the scans, it has been determined that the champion suffered a bone bruise to his rib and cartilage injury during training
With this news, Aldo has expressed that he has every intention of facing Conor McGregor at UFC 189. While Aldo has indicated that he will compete in Las Vegas on July 11, UFC has confirmed a contingency plan. No.1 featherweight contender Chad Mendes will face McGregor for the interim UFC featherweight championship in the event Aldo cannot compete.
UFC remains committed to delivering the featherweight and the welterweight championship fights at UFC 189 during UFC International Fight Week in Las Vegas.
I want Aldo 100% I think he should side step this one.
Honestly, this sucks. I bet the UFC is bribing Aldo to fight injured since they want their obnoxious Irish posterboy to be the champ. If Aldo loses, he will then get an immediate rematch and the bastards at UFC get to make even more money off of a rematch.
Yeah you’re probably right it wouldn’t shock me in the least if that’s the way it goes down.
Well I’m glad the fight’s still on, been looking forward to this one, it was scheduled so ridiculously far in advance.
