Hi Ariel,

Where is the best place to send questions in between the Q and A's you post before your M/W shows?

I am wondering the same. IS there usually an "On the Nose" separate forum?

Would be cool if they renamed these specific events β€œfight like hell” and numbered them.

I think leg kicks are gonna be the difference in this main event. I got Aldo! Who do you guys think wins?

Cant decide. It’s going to be one of those stand to watch the rounds and hold my face the whole time type of fights.

68-65 Haney? How do I watch both this and Fiziev v Riddell and score both accurately? Tough choice.

What’s the story with Geoff Neal? Anyone know?

Ryan St. John's avatar

Last I read his lawyer was disputing that he was over the legal limit. He was legally allowed to carry a gun but because they arrested him for a DUI apparently committing a crime while carrying a weapon is an extra charge. They said they’re getting tested to show his actual alcohol blood level. If it comes back under 0.08 then apparently both charges would be dropped. Doesn’t sound like UFC planning to remove him as they wait the results which said could take weeks. So TBD I guess and doesn’t stop him from fighting.

Well, to me, that last Walker fight against Thiago Santos was crazy boring, and he lost. I think can get a better match up than him or Costa.

Zack Payne's avatar

yeah that fight was literal top 3 most boring fights I have ever watched live.

Penny Ensley's avatar

Totally. It was part of that string of boring ass Fight Nights too. I love having so much MMA to watch and across various promotions but those UFC cards were making strong arguments for the UFC taking a break.

What a night! Action man made me a fan with his MMA Hour interview and then comes out and does that to a top prospect. Woo-hoo!

Then, my friends, Clay Guida! In a time when we see so many OGs leaving the game it's special to see someone like Clay do something like that.

Main card has delivered so far!
