Price vs. Wells
Jeremiah Wells, TKO, R1
Niko has looked terrible in his last outings and to say his chin might be gone it only gets worse here if i can say anything about wells it is that he hits like an absolute truck price is getting flatlined

Who wins the striking battle?

Predictions: 11 of 12 Pending   |   Tied for 1st with 1311 others

Obviously Makhachev will have his way with Poirier on the ground, but who will win the striking battle? I think Makhachev has the right style to outbox Poirier. He's too patient and defensively sound for Poirier to find his counter strikes and the threat of the takedown will open Poirier up.

Outside of a cheap shot to back of Dustin's head Islam has no chance on feet quit joking.

Arman calls out Islam and turns down the fights because it is too soon. Who knows maybe he "Jalin Turnered" his chance.

Costa vs Strikland for 5 round is good, Also Exited to see Fluffy fight 

I’m happy illegal streaming is a thing, don’t want to pay $70 for a card unless it worth $70

The card needs 2-3 more fights, why not to add Gamrot vs Hooker or Moicano

First UFC Event

Anyone have advice for purchasing tickets for a UFC event? 

Is it better to get your tickets presale or moments before the event?

Are nosebleeds worth purchasing for UFC events?

Whats a fair price?

Thank you!!
