Thank you, and please be respectful. We appreciate it.
 
Just subbed to the channel. Can't stay up as it's 11pm UK time and I need to wake up at 4am. Hopefully catch the next one.

Good thing about these broadcasts is that they we set them to automatically upload to the channel after it's over, so you can replay them any time.
 
Please feel free to ask questions for the guys to answer soon, including anything you want to know about the press conference.
 
Thanks guys for doing these.

How much do you think you can tell about a fighter from watching them during fight week? How much stock do you put in open workouts, press conferences and stare downs?
 
How ya doing Ant, Danny here. Nice to meet you sir. One question for ya....McGregor or Khabib. & how do you see this fight going/ending? Simple enough yeh :)

Another one actually, a lot of MMA fighters have stare downs as we all know. Is it just me or can you tell when an opponent fears the other opponent?
Or do you believe it's all for PR/Show? For example like when Conor stared down Aldo before their fight
 
Would you say the Irish outnumber the Americans at the press conference's sir?
 
Conor Mc is still not a proven champ in peoples eyes even after holding 2 belts and fighting floyd.
 
This is awesome @jei , I can see both of you btw
 
Yes. We can see Ben.

Nice shirt.:cool:
 
Random question, do either of you believe Israel Adesanya will be or has what it takes the next MW champion?

Rampage and Wanderlei's last fight was a good 1. Definitely want to see the saga end with a 5th fight!
 
Derrick Lewis giant status confirmed.
 
Did I miss it again? Just got out of deliberation... Short and simple. Do ya'll want to see Jones vs Cormier at Heavyweight for the belt and the last fight for DC?
 
Eyyyy, thank you Ant & Ben for answering one of my questions!
