Shit man. Cheers for spinning my positive into a negative! Now all I’ll be thinking on that Wednesday is what we could’ve watched. 

HAHAHA sorry dude that's my bad. But these are the unfortunate facts we all have to come to terms with. On this occasion I'm that guy still 3pm start on a Wednesday BONUS!!

Sweet news about that Magny vs Chiesa show especially. That would’ve been a bit of a ballache being on a Wednesday with avoiding spoilers at work etc. I finish work at 2pm so a 3pm prelim start time is perfect for me. 

Yeah man i couldn't agree more with this 3PM start time for a tasty little Wednesday show is always a nice treat. However this just bums me out even more to think it was originally the Edwards vs Khamzat show but such is life

Fucking over the moon for the first 2 show's start time. I will absolutely be watching live however like i said a couple of weeks ago I won't be paying £20 for the Conor vs Dustin show as i won't be watching it live I would be watching it when i wake up so it doesn't really make sense to pay for something and not watch it live

I believe the book will be going to ebook. Stay tuned! 

Well up for reading it when it does move over, I have listened to a few of his podcasts and he isn't one for holding back so I would imagine the book is even more raw and revealing.

Well colour me excited for this one, With all the hype that went into their last build before it fell apart at the very last minute. You started to get excited and look at Burns as a true contender and I was hyped for it (Obviously I'm a huge Masvidal fan so what ended up going down made me even happier until the cage door closed) After seeing Usman do what he did to Masvidal I think this has made Usman look even harder to beat and dethrone so this will be a really fun one.

fuck sake...

 

If this is true then the main card for this PPV that is already very weak suffers even more. Surely they have to try and look for a replacement fight to add to the main card instead of just going for the easier option of just bumping up a fight off the prelims. They are already repeating themselves from the last Conor headlined ppv which was also incredibly weak and riding solely on the fact Conor is in the main event.

To save this post and mean I haven't bumped the topic for nothing, I've just picked up Dominator Stu Allen's book, along with The Saturday Afternoon War by Tony Earnshaw from Wrestling Heritage which looks like a nice little archive that'll sit nicely alongside The Wrestling & Have a Good Week...

Has anyone picked up the two new Meltzer books of Observer reprints?

I would have been well up for reading Stu's new book but i just looked on amazon and it's not available on kindle which is a shame as i really struggle to stay focused and motivated to read physical books (Part of my disability I'm not anti books or anything) Hopefully it will get put as a ebook sooner rather than later

Is there any chance he is genuinely ill or is attempting an Ernest Saundres/Vincent Gigante stunt?

No matter how vile he is; to me it is the former and he needs help.

I actually respectfully disagree with you here dude and I think it's completely the other way. This guy has convinced the majority of the world he is a total fucking idiot and a complete laughing stock but I don't believe that is true and he is actually much much smarter and more switched on than he ever wants people to know, If those people pointing and laughing stop and actually work out he is calculated and Knows exactly what he is doing and he knew exactly what his words would ignite on Thursday morning which is why he is a truly scary character. 

I think he was very close to ending his term and getting away with many of the things he should be made to answer for in front of a judge ext but his ego & his stupidity stepped in and at the final hurdle he did what he has done and now I think he will end up in some serious serious trouble. I also realise even without being president he is a powerful figure with powerful friends and assets so weather he gets the right punishment for his crimes we will have to see. But when Facebook/Instagram/Twitter are the first in line with the absolute balls to say what you have done is unacceptable your now banned from using our platforms just shows what a huge black mark he has made for America and American politics. 

I've just read on twitter that all 3 of the fight island cards this month will have limited number of fans attending for all 3. Jesus christ can you imagine what they will be charging for tickets for these 

I completely agree with the comments above. I have defended and been the biggest Conor McGregor fan for years now he was the reason i fell in love with the sport. However his behaviour and disrespect towards the sport that made him the superstar he is today made me look at him very differently like many of his other long term fans. 

I'm guessing with the meeting Dana had with Khabib and reports coming out the title is indeed vacated, We all know this fight will now be for the title and on some levels it makes sense but like it's been said above Conor has only fought at this weight 3 times in 4 years AND on top of that has only fought in the ufc 2/3 times in over 2 years. The sport in the time Conor has fucked about and tried to play the superstar has evolved and because he has been gone new stars have worked their arse off and should be given this opportunity over the guy who is unpredictable and unreliable for the company and the division. 

My thoughts on how the fight goes doesn't change at all I believe Conor wins it in the first round But with how he has behaved and treated the UFC and his fans in MMA I don't believe for a second he will stick around and fight 2/3 times this year, I think if he does win, The media and praise he will be handed will once again go to his head, He has already said he wants to go fuck about in boxing again so he will leave again, Take a bunch of coke, Get accused of Rape a few more times only to pop back up in the UFC for the first PPV of 2022 and rinse and repeat till he finally pushes Dana and the UFC over the edge and disappears forever. 

I just watched a video on Youtube saying that dana said Khabib has indeed vacated the title and this main event will be for the vacant belt but i can't find anything on Twitter or whatever to support that. HOWEVER the meeting with Khabib did take place yesterday so I and I'm sure the rest of the world is extremely egar to hear what has come out of it. 

ALSO I don't know if you guy's have seen on twitter and Instagram but Dana has said the UFC are putting measures in place to make it even harder for those trying to illegally stream the PPV, Which I'm also very interested to see what there planning on doing with that

fuck sake i was literally looking for ages where to put it

Just because there is nowhere else to put it i'll put it in here. 
I got from asda the special bakery edition muller light yogurts - one special edish being cinnamon swirl flavour and the other being lemon drizzle cake flavour. 
I love yogurts it's one of the few things i actually eat but last night i was eating the lemon one and i shit you not it tasted like washing up liquid, I understand how weird that statement is but i've never experienced anything like it 

I think they will probably look to rebook the Khamzat vs Edwards fight for mid/late February or early March.
To be honest with this fight it was already a big fight and had a lot of eyes on it but with it having to be rescheduled and pushed back twice now it's only played into there hands more as they have both done bits of press and hype for it already so it just adds to it doesn't it 

It's been reported on twitter by MMA junkie that Neil Magny VS Michael Chiesa will now be the main event for this card and the Khamzat vs Edwards fight will once again be pushed back.

tidy fight:

 

Well up for that fight, I guess that means Holland won't be stepping in for the January card against Edwards

Kevin Holland has said he wants the fight with Edwards which I'm not totally against if they are wanting to go down the route of giving this opportunity to a up and comer prospect 

Apparently the reason behind Khamzat pulling out of the fight is due to him testing positive for COVID 19. 

Fuck this virus twice it's impacted on this fight happening. I wonder what the main event will be now?

Yeah it's just been posted by Bloody elbow on twitter. I can't begin to express the level of dissapointment on this one and you have to hope the undisclosed reason for him pulling out is fucking good because this was the biggest fight of his career, If he got the win he could have been a title contender by the summer. GUTTED

I've had a look on twitter on the mma junkie & Bloody elbow pages and there is nothing on this report. I hope to god it's not true because i will be so disappointed and angry but I guess we will see

AS IF this is the card that gets the early start time and not the Conor vs Dustin card. I did hear on the UFC open mat award show last night that indeed the Conor VS Dustin card will be on BT sport box office (like anyone thought anything different) I think with that one if it's not being put on a reasonable time for the UK I will just download the following morning instead of shelling out for the show on box office that I won't watch live at 3am anyway

I completed Uncharted 4 this morning and I can easily say it is one of the best games I've ever played I was completely immersed. I started the lost legacy this morning but only played it for around 30 mins just to get a feel for it. I will get properly stuck in later on but yeah also with the game modifications and add on section after you have completed the game I think it could really give that extra go back and replay element to it.

Yeah the third game feels rushed and unfinished, I hated when you're playing through the really interesting John Dee storyline and then it just vanishes, dropping you into that (boat or plane?) set peice and never mentioning that part of the plot again.

What really disappointed me about the 3rd uncharted game was the amount of Improvement and thousand times better gameplay mechanics they had implimented from Uncharted 1 & Uncharted 2, They chose to completely backtrack and go back to the irritating and clunky ways the first game handled and bare in mind I've been playing these games back to back so it really felt confusing as everything that was wrong in the first game they spotted and fixed only to go back to square one again, Games shouldn't work like that in a franchise it should always be seeing what could be improved - improve it rinse and repeat. 

That being said though I think this 4th game is a complete masterpiece. I'm having so much fun with it and the storyline has really drawn me in with the huge reveal that gets dropped just before Elena comes into it (I'm not going to spoil it so I'm guessing Merzbow you have played it so you know where I'm up to) 

I've played alot of the Tomb raider games in the past i think the only one i didn't end up completing was the newest one (shadow of the tomb raider is it) 

So i was talking to my best mate on Christmas eve about the uncharted games and we were having like an hour long conversation about how amazing they are so that's when i bought uncharted 4 thinking it was the last one in the series, But he told me there is a 5th game which is a sort of spin off without Nathan drake and instead with women so as i've been completely addicted to this 4th game and within the space of like 3 days i'm on chapter 16 I've just gone and bought the 5th spin off game ready for when I've completed this one haha. 

I did the same when i was playing hitman i was half way through and fallen in love with it so i went out and bought hitman 2 for when I'd finished it. Speaking of Hitman the 3rd game comes out on the 20th of January i cannot wait for it!!!
