PBP UFC Abu Dhabi Whittaker vs. De Ridder Official PBP Discussion: Sat 7/26 at 12pm ET

[DreyDay]

Still a shit card

 

[BFoe]

I'm kinda scared for Pico, I want him to win.

He’s just so chinny, you never know when he’s gonna get cracked and slept.

 

[AstralPanda]

Pico already getting co-main status

Pico gets the title in 2026

You heard it here first

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Actually, no, surprisingly. Many were, of course, but there were many bands of pirates who were locally liked more than the imperial rule of the area.
The Republic of Pirates by Colin Woodard is a good book on this topic

I'm gonna just believe that Shara knows nothing of this

 

[maximus__]

I have wife's parents coming over soon and missed this match. Busy cleaning.
The timing of this card and todays plans are conflicting.
What round was it?

I love the Fight nights because I just catch the fights later and can skip the shit ones.

 

[Fact Checker]

Murphy vs. Pico is a good fight. Props to both for taking that on very short notice.

Sheesh, I just walked away from the broadcast… was this confirmed? When?

 

[contrail]

Khamzat the most Dana White privileged fighter in the UFC

who would you prefer DDP fight in the top 5? He already killed three of those dudes and Imavov will get taken down and subbed/smashed.

 

[Bradillac]

I assume whoever wins that is next for the title.

 

[rollthedice]

Bellator matching him up with a guy who had 20-ish fights was just plain fucking dumb, lol.

It wasn't as dumb as matching CM Punk with the highly touted Mickey Gall, that was just lamb to the slaughter

 

[Hymen Crusher]

Marcus looks like he is about 58 years old. What's wrong with his face

 

[forsh]

For the record Petr Yan beat Sean O'Malley

 

[Substance Abuse]

Again, Yan fighting down the rankings, just like Royval did with Van, deserves a ton of props. Ranking, division status on the line, while giving a guy a chance to prove himself. More guys need to do this. Whittaker is doing it tonight with #5 vs #13.

 

[don't ask]

We get a stoppage on the feet from him recently off a single knockdown, but now he needs 7 to even contemplate it...

That's the issue, just be consistent.

I don't blame him for panicking and stopping that fight when Tallison wasn't defending intelligently and then put both his hands on the fence for many seconds as Lewis was teeing off.

But, yeah, I agree with inconsistent reffing in general.

 

[AmonTobin]

"I want to fight in the UFC."
Sure kid. How does co-main event sound?

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Ok Murphy vs Pico is an exceptable last minute comain

 

[Substance Abuse]

Sheesh, I just walked away from the broadcast… was this confirmed? When?

Just now.

 

[wufabufa]

 

[Shoguns Prodigy**]

Pico gonna get ruined again, pushing him to the top without being proven in bellator let alone ufc

 

[Poirierfan]

He’s just so chinny, you never know when he’s gonna get cracked and slept.

Yup, that's precisely why I'm scared. Lol, I like the guy and want to see him do good, but that damn chin.

 

[xhaydenx]

Man, Bisping says some nonsense.

Earlier said Shara is one of the best kickboxers on the planet, yet he would get slaughtered by top kickboxers.

Now, just said Pico is one of the biggest names outside of the UFC. Like what? Pico has beaten no one. Never been a champ or anything.
