I saw a guy in Coles wearing a UFC shirt the other day.

I wanted to just go and fly-kick him in the face.

Watched TUF 20 ep 1 this morning.

16 females , star weight.

I like the way its set up. All 1st round fights are set up already. They seeded all fighters. They got 8 fighters from the invicta comp then auditioned for the other 8.

Way the seeding works is 1st vs 15 , 2nd vs 14 etc.

The fights should be good. There seems to be some talented fighters.

Great event today. 11 finishes from 11 fight and Aussies kicked ass today :)

Don't waste your time with fight pass, I had it and most events were blocked for Aussies due to licensing issues.

I would like to see Whittaker training with Sera and Longo. Longo is IMO far and away the best striking coach in MMA.

The UFC came so close to having an Australian based heavy weight champion over the weekend. That would have been huge for the sport here.

Mark Hunt was looking good until that knee to the head :( I hope he can string 3 or so wins in a row together and get another crack at it with a full training camp.

Agree he looked good.

Do worry about his ability to go into the 3rd round. He looks to get tired too easily

Yeah his odds def go down as the fight goes on... 1 thing I liked though was how he was being very conservative with his shots, he didn't have many wasted strikes which helps in those later rounds.

Edgar was brilliant in the 1st 4 rounds , the recording ran out just before the 5th. Swanson had no answer and was bashed up.

The Barboza and Green fight was good , I enjoyed it. I liked how Green would brush off every punch or kick until he copped the spinning heel kick , he didnt do it for the rest of the round. Shame the heel kick just didnt quite connect properly.

Also the big boys banging on was good. Rosholt and Oliynik . That fight result was only ever going to happen one way. KO

Prelims were poor. I thought Luke Barnatt was **** on TUF , He is still ****
