what has happened to all the UFC fans here on DS did no one watch the fight on sunday / monday evening?
What did you think to "the old man" Randy Couture beating gonzaga admittedly mainly due to an injury but they all count and George St. Pierre seems to be back to his old self.
UFC 75 is on on Saturday in the O2 Arena if you have tickets or on Setanta Sports. I will be watching on Setanta, but do they offer the event as a stand alone PPV event or do you have to subscribe for the whole month and cancel again for £9.99? (Which might actually work out cheaper than ordering it seperately...)
Also, UFC 76 is on 23rd Sept on Bravo at 8pm.

Ok folks. Since another UFC is around the corner we're seeing the usual "Ban MMA, its human cockfighting" BS as usual. If anyone spouts this crap, just copy and paste this below. it should shut them up

Anybody watching on Setanta?
I never watch , but since setanta is free on virgin media i'm watching.
It's been good....the last match with Torres and Leo Don(?) was amazing, a TKO in the first round.
The current match is really great too. The guy playing now is british - Bisping - but Hamil is really beating him up.
:O Just found out Hamil is infact deaf . . .i ...
Felt the Bisping win was a bit of a homer decision, as I thought Hamill just shaded it. Rampage/Henderson was a good technical main event, and the right call was made in giving the win to Rampage.
Yeh I thought Bisping was beaten too! Was a good show - though i'm not like my friends who willingly pay about £15 on PPV to watch them usually when they're not on Setanta.
I think Hamill was totally cheated out of that victory. Bisping was running from him for the whole fight and every time he punched Hamill, he was blocked well and didn't really make an impact on him. all Hamill got was a cut or two, Bispings face alone was a sight. I think the only reason he won was because he was an English fighter fighting in the UK and they wanted to get thr...
why can't mirko get it together in UFC on paper he should be ripping through people but 2 defeats now ? Dana won't keep him on the books much if that carries on
I love MMA but there's so many great shows out there as well as the UFC. UFC have brought the sport to the forefront but its been around for years. There's Cage Rage, Cage warriors, Ultimate Force, Strike & Submit to name but a few, these are also great shows.
Cage Rage is on Sky Sports 3 tonight @ 9pm of which there is a title fight between the 2 best heavyweights in the ...

I would suggest you get yourself some classic Pride FC dvd's if you are new to MMA....

Renzo Gracie v Matt Hughes is the main event of 112, apparently. Yeah to avenge the defeat Royce suffered to Hughes. Renzo the 42 year old who hasnt fought in nearly 3 years. Dana White loves to criticise boxing but some of his decisions deserve real criticism.

Well guys apart from being disappointed with the result of TUF final last night, personally I think Roy Nelson is a disgrace as a so called athlete, I though Five USA's highlight's were crap, why the hell they cut the actual fights down and put the stupid flying banner in, whereas they could have easily cut the crap before and after the fight's and left them untouched. From what I could see they saved about 4 or 5 minutes at...
Big shame about Lesnar, was really looking forward to him beating Carwin (not that I have anything against Carwin, but he has no chance against Lesnar. Neither does Cain, too small) In terms of the Machida fight, one of the judges released a statement saying that the reason he gave it to Machida was because he landed the more clean strikes - i.e quality over quantity. Need to watch the fight again to make up my own mind for definite though
