I've enjoyed the cage boxing fights I've seen at local shows over the years, all be it they are lads of a similar skill set and ability

It's not Cage Boxing, it's pretty much Thai-Boxing
A ruleset where punches, spinning back fists is allowed but not kicks and grabbing and clinching is permitted is pretty much Thai Boxing down to a tee.

And if you put a grappler and a Boxer into a Thai Boxing match there was only going to be 1 outcome. The fight should never of happened, it was like Triller level's of desperation

Cage boxing is different, I quite like it. No idea what this was trying to be, it was effectively a boxing match but in a triangle ring.

It's cage boxing down to a tee, boxing with the introductionof clinch allowing dirty boxing, punches only, Thai boxing you can use kicks, knees and elbows?

Because mir didn't couldn't utilise the clinch, the amount of times rogan and Co. Go on about miles excellent stand up has always had me baffled tbf, I like him but there is only ever going to be 1 winner in a stand up fight with a world class boxer

If you want to talk about huge guys for their weight… Cody Garbrandt fighting at Flyweight in 2 weeks time. He’s gonna look enormous for a 125.

Sensible move and good matchmaking for his fight too. Fotn potential on a stacked card against Kara France. 2 swingers, that bout not lasting 5 minutes and the winner will probably get next crack at the belt.
 
Dana White testing positive for COVID..... He's gone to using Joe Rogan's methods and reckons he'll be alright to attend fight night on Saturday, lmao.
 
Excellent main event between Aldo and Font... Don't let the scorecards fool ya how close the fight was.

Haven't seen the breakdown of the scorecards but a 10-9 for Font in 1 round in which he almost finished Aldo but a 10-8 in the 2nd round is why the scorecards look so unanimous
 
Buzzing for this weekends card, but won’t be able to watch due to a prior commitment, I will have to try and watch it on Sunday. Anyone know a good place to do that?
 
You know which Porier will turn up. The dog he is, he'll always be there to win and handle any pressure. Depends on DuBronx for me. If he is the form that got him the belt, then I have him to win by stoppage. Cant wait though, really like them both but probably prefer Charles style slightly more, technically perfect all action approach to Dustins brawl but fuxk me what a match up. Come on!!!

I’m going Poirier to dominate and stop him before the Championship rounds.
