Think we all need to be prepared for his “redemption” ark, and more “nice-guy/respect” stuff like this.

Easy?Nice of Dana to give Conor an easy fight against someone who has lost their last two and 6 of his past 10.
Easy in terms of the other alternatives where Conor would almost certainly lose (Khabib/Tony etc). Another Conor loss would tank his PPV marketability in future fights, so they are giving him an easy one in fighting an ageing Cowboy.Easy?
I'm absolutely convinced Cowboy takes this. He'll either spark him or choke and tap McNugget out.
I'm loving these odds bookies are giving Cowboy, I think I'll be putting a decent wager on Cowboy for the win.

Although if Aldo performs terribly after a high profile MMA fighter like McGregor has publicly said he should be on top of his game then it makes Aldo look a chump.
In before the @George Owen prelims are starting alert....

And ROZENSTRUIK!! (SMASH!) hit him so hard he tore his face open! That'll be a permanent scar once sewn back together.
My goodness that power is phenomenal. And he takes punches like they aren't even there.
If he and N'Gannou ever match up, we'll either get an absolute bore fest, or the shattering of a city as hands collide!

What's interesting is N'Gannou probably hits harder, but I'm not sure he has the chin of ROZENSTRUIK so any 50/50 exchange would be fascinating.Tweet

Yeah. The Lewis fight was also expected to be fireworks, and it was the worst fight in UFC history. Hopefully this one will be different.
Agree. he should be a couple of fights off facing high-end HWs, but if Dana likes the sound of it, or N'Gannou asks for the fight, he is likely to get it.Also Rozenstruik was probably going to lose a narrow decision on points if not for the improbable last second KO against an ageing Overeem, so I don't think he is nearly ready to face someone like Ngannou. Let's see how he does against a Derrick Lewis or a Walt Harris before fast tracking him to the very top of the division.
Not watched any build up me find Covington hard to watch. Looking forward to the card thoughSurprised that there’s no talk in here about one of the best cards of the year.
There has hardly been any build up.Not watched any build up me find Covington hard to watch. Looking forward to the card though
True, usually watch the Embedded's, BT Sport interviews etc not bothered with any of it me.There has hardly been any build up.
