Nicco Montano on The MMA Hour!

[Me&MrJones]

Just wait what happens if khabib pulls out...same things gonna happen...enough of this pulling out of fights..get your training down, so you don't get injured...especially in the last couple of weeks before the fight...hard training should be over at that point.

The King (Khabib) does whatever the fuck he wants.

 

[dormammu]

I never watch these things, but might make an exception to hear her cry

That's funny because previously Nicco had cussed out Ariel and called him a liar for reporting the UFC was growing impatient with her. Which one is it?

at the time ariel was reporting it the UFC were not frustrated with her, that came from Val's camp.

UFC had even paid her medical bills, had her treated in vegas etc.

But, once treatment had concluded, then they pushed for the september date

reading between the lines it looks like at that point she said "september is too soon" and that was the point at which UFC said "nah, youve been treated, you are well again, get on with it"

but that is after the val/ariel thing

Ariel reported the UFC was growing impatient with her in May. Then in June the fight was booked. Reading between the lines makes it obvious he was right. How would they go from not impatient to forcing her to accept a date a month later?

Currently listening to Nicco on Luke Thomas' MMA hour. She said when she started her cut on Thursday, she was 144 lbs. She was 141 for the TUF finale.

Edit: She also stated VS was really hoping she(nicco)would pull out because she's afraid to face someone like her(nicco).

Your favorite MMA Show is back in your life with Luke Thomas.

Montano still has some issues with Ariel apparantly so she's on Luke's show.

Her interview will be at...
1pm ET
10am PT
18:00 GB time
19:00 Dutch time

You mean when Ariel was right the first time months ago and she went on a rant and then was proven right again this time round

 

[Mbowes]

I'm just glad we had Niko price to replace her.

fight actually wasnt booked and announced till late in July...

You are being quite liberal with your dates. Ariel actually caused the shit on April 30th, Fight was booked in Mid july.. over two and a half months later

fwiw, and i know dana isnt reliable but he also came out and said Ariel was talking shit about it.

except he said that in april.

the fight was booked 2 and a half months later.

Ariel was wrong at the time, UFC were not pissed off with her at that point.

Yes.

There's no smoke without fire. Ariel knows enough people in the backroom to hear the gossip etc going around

 

[Son of Sonnen]

You're wrong. He had a leg injury and then concussion symptoms. That's different then your body shutting down because of cutting.



The UFC allowed her to sit on the title for 9 months through various injury issues. Her failing to make weight was the last straw. The division needs to move on.

Max tried to make weight on short notice to fight Khabib and New York stopped his weight cut. Last I saw, the Dr.s attributed his symptoms before the Ortega fight to water intoxication which was due to him water loading as part of his weight cut. Thats 2, and again not arguing he should be stripped, I am arguing that fighters that have an issue with a weight cut, should not have it used against them.

The division needs to move on. Divisions, plural, sat while Conor did whatever he wanted. Divisions sit while they film seasons of TUF. While champs heal up, take a break etc. You couldn’t name 5 women Flyweights so cut the crap about the tragedy of a division without a title defense for 9 months.

Wasn't defending his title, he was doing the UFC a solid on 6 days notice.

Last I saw, the Dr.s attributed his symptoms before the Ortega fight to water intoxication which was due to him water loading as part of his weight cut.

You saw wrong.

 

[Omega Man]

Nothing worse than someone that talks a lot of shit and then pussies out.

 

[FightsFTW]

Funniest part was her delusion in saying that Valentina was actually relieved that she got pulled because she is afraid of her.

Lol that logic, Valentina showed up and was ready to go, Nicco wasn't. Lets get 2 real fighters in there to fight for the title please.
