PBP UFC 297 Strickland vs. Du Plessis: Preliminary Card PBP Discussion - Sat 1/20 at 6:30pm ET / 3:30pm PT

[MMA4Life]

Allen x Evloev such a fun fight on paper

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Robertson a -300 favourite? I'm a big fan and think she will win this but the chance of her getting sprawled and brawled is always there for every damn fight sadly.

I think it's because Viana is more of a grappler as well, but she has also been worked over on the ground in the past...

When they loaded up #UFC279 instead of #UFC297 LOL

 

[HerpDerp]

How's the card so far? It's 3am here and I just woke up, so good morning everybody!

 

[SuperNerd]

Kill everybody, after sweat.

 

[PurpleStorm]

Next up. 115: Gillian Robertson (12-8) vs. Polyana Viana (13-6).

War Gillian!

Do they still release the gate numbers later? Curious what it's looking like. A decent seat is around $500 right now on stubhub which is waaaaay cheaper than they were and there is an abundance of them. I'd have gone if they didn't go absurd with the price for this mid ass card. Scotiabank is dope

 

[Neck&Neck]

Viana could get something

Agreed. This is the fight I'm looking to forward the most on the card.

 

[Yoricks Wisdom]

Chick fight!

 

[BEATDOWNS]

War Gillian lets get it gurl!!

 

[MMA4Life]

Hope Viana fights to her true potential. She is so hot and cold. Inconsistent. Gilian by sub might be a gamblers dream

Canadian crowds usually feel hyped for these cards. One of the reasons they seem to give us weaker cards because the crowd is always intense... except for Edmonton, that was brutal.

I love it man.. it makes every fight seem more important. I can't stand the Apex, there are so many problems with it, it was only ok for Covid lockdown.. just to get through. Now its hurting the fights badly, theres just no atmosphere or energy or excitement at all, its so flat, makes every fight seem and look so unimportant.

I love these intense crowds. I wish they do it for every event. Please no more TUF set

 

[Yoricks Wisdom]

Lol at Peyton hawking bud light.
Beaucoup bucks were paid.

Polyana 'the One Who Pegged Colby' Viana should be her nickname.

 

[DrRodentia]

How does the average male fare against an elite MMA fighter the morning of weigh ins?

 

[MMA4Life]

Agreed. This is the fight I'm looking to forward the most on the card.

More so than the MW title. Who do have winning?

 

[KOPPE]

anime will ruin this women
