It’s time for another Conor card. The main card is pretty weak as expected.
The only thing remotely saving the main card is the comain. Wonderboy/ Burns is a hell of a fight.
I don’t see the main going any different then it did 6 months ago. Happy Dustin is getting another big payday though.
The under card has a couple of decent things happening for it. Ryan Hall is actually going to fight. What is pretty big news for bjj people’s. I am a big Carlos Condit fan, so hyped for that. Niko and Pereira could end up being bonkers for an unimaginable amount of reasons. Because it’s Niko and Pereira .
Tuivasa/Hardy gonna end in a double tko via gassing out. O'Malley is fighting checks notes a ufc newcomer?? Excited to see Blinky McHeelhook do his best Vannata impression for a round and a half before securing the sub tho, that's always fun.
Gotta say I hate rubber matches tho with this trilogy fight. Like yeah, a trilogy between Poirier and McG was going to happen, but did it really need to happen immediately after the second fight? What are we really expecting to see different from Conor that he didn't have in fight 2? There's been no time for evolution as a fighter. I know this is happening on one part because Dustin wants the pay day but it's also so obviously Conor handholding from the ufc because they need to correct the record any time he loses so it can look like a fluke and not just that he isn't actually the best in the division. Part of me feels like Dana is up Khabib's ass about coming back for the 50-0 fight just for the purpose of having Conor avenge the loss
