Paid Members lambyUK Posted January 15, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2016 I can't stand TJ. Randomly I can't stand him with his love of hunting for sport. Seems a lot of those "alpha" male guys do it. He just looks like a little shit bag at the end of day. Â I'm going for Cruz because whilst we've talked about footwork, if the same Cruz turns up, he can mix it up better than Dillashaw. He has great take downs that are so well disguised that it may trouble Dillashaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2016 I'd be very surprised if this actually happened but I'd love, fucking love, to see Cruz just go in there and Mizugaki him. Just completely bulldoze him in a minute or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted January 15, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2016 Nah fuck TJ. I'm Team Cruz all the way. Â Where's Cruz come off as a prick? I haven't followed the build-up to this one much at all. Are you talking about that Counterpunch thing or something else? Its just in general, ive never been fond of Cruz. I listened to a Jon Anik interview this morning and he said something along the lines of 'Cruz is a good friend of mine, but he's a bit of a prick'. Â Still, my money's on him so i will unwillingly cheer him on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members lambyUK Posted January 15, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2016 Cruz is a bit of a prick who's up his own arse. However, what he's gone through to get here is hell and must be applauded for not giving up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2016 I'm the opposite with Cruz. I used to think he was a twat but he's grown on me over the years. I really like him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 16, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 16, 2016 Card's been shuffled again. They've only gone and moved Felder vs Cruickshank back down to Fight Pass.   FOX SPORTS 1 MAIN CARD TJ Dillashaw vs Dominick Cruz - Bantamweight Title Anthony Pettis vs Eddie Alvarez Travis Browne vs Matt Mitrione Ross Pearson vs Francisco Trinaldo  FOX SPORTS 1 PRELIMS Patrick Cote vs Ben Saunders Tim Boetsch vs Ed Herman Chris Wade vs Mehdi Baghdad Maximo Blanco vs Luke Sanders  FIGHT PASS PRELIMS Paul Felder vs Daron Cruikshank Charles Rosa vs Kyle Bochniak Ilir Latifi vs Sean O'Connell Rob Font vs Joey Gomez Francimar Barroso vs Elvis Mutapcic 'Cause the world was crying out to see Wade vs Baghdad and Blanco vs Sanders.

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted January 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 16, 2016 Felder/Cruickshank has been listed on Fight Pass for a couple of weeks now wand. Â The UFC are definitely making a conscious decision to put meaningful fights on Fight Pass. That CM Punk opponent thing will be on there too, that's gonna draw some eyes. Â Personally i love it. We get to see some live fights at a decent time. The FP prelims is a mini card in itself for this show so i'll view that between 11-1 tomorrow night then watch the remainder of the show on Monday. Â Get on UFC rewards too, its pretty easy to get Fight Pass for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 16, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 16, 2016 Felder/Cruickshank has been listed on Fight Pass for a couple of weeks now wand. It was on Fight Pass originally but they moved it onto the FOX Sports prelims the other week when injuries forced a card reshuffle. Now it's back on Fight Pass. Â How's the rewards thing work? Thing is I'm not always going to be around to stream the prelims live so how does that work? Do they get the prelims up immediately after the show? I'm guessing not, right? So if I'm not able to be in front of my laptop as the prelims happen, have I got to wait days for it to appear on Fight Pass? At least if it was on the FS1 prelims I can just Sky+ it and watch it when I want. Â Fight Pass just seems like more pissing about than it's worth. The way I'm doing it at the moment, I'm watching the main cards and televised prelims on BT obviously. Then any Fight Pass prelims that take my fancy, like Poirier vs Duffy at 195, I'm just finding the videos the next day. It's been a bastard avoiding spoilers for the Fight Pass fights though.

jimufctna24 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 We should start a fund-raiser to get Wand a FightPass subscription.  Come on lads, let's all chip in  I'm the opposite with Cruz. I used to think he was a twat but he's grown on me over the years. I really like him now. Cruz had a habit of not coming across well in interviews. I think a lot of the time it was his facial expressions, or lack thereof. He is quite stoic and cold. I always enjoyed watching him fight though, and I thought he came across well as a coach on TUF Live (what a horrible series that was)  I hope he wins tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 It's very odd - surely there's nothing the UFC could've done to force them to sign new contracts without them walking away as the only alternative? Â I think if they had decided to walk away they'd still have been held under the terms of their previous deal, meaning they'd likely have been shelved in the same way Wanderlei was.

I think you have an idea that Fight Pass is more of a potch than it actually is wand  You can start the prelim portion from the beginning even if the broadcast has already started i think. Its basically available to you as soon as it starts to air live.  The reward thing is just a point scheme for using UFC.com they give you points for reading articles, clicking polls, watching videos etc. Save up so many and you can have fight pass free for a month, or get other rewards (its surprisingly easy to get enough points).  The only downside to Fight Pass is the spoilers that can appear the day after shows...if you know how to avoid them its easy enough but they can just stare you in the face. The UFC needs to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
