Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 21, 2021 Author Paid Members Posted August 21, 2021 Yeah, had a quick look at Lazishvili and he seems a very decent substitute. Just disappointed Said’s out. One of the cool things about that matchup was that they were both kind of at the exact same point in their UFC journeys. Now Shore’s got what might be just as difficult an opponent but even less well known and it’s a switch up a couple of weeks out. Not ideal. I wonder what else is gonna change then. Can’t lie I’ll piss myself if Pimblett’s out after all his bellyaching.
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 21, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 21, 2021 yep, same here. I hope its Pimblett ?
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 21, 2021 Author Paid Members Posted August 21, 2021 Another one down and it’s not Paddy. Charles Jourdain’s confirmed Lerone Murphy is out. Shite.
Paid Members SBD Posted August 22, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 22, 2021 Another one bites the dust
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 22, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 22, 2021 ouch, thats a big one. This is gonna be one of those shows that ends up with like 1 fight from the original card left.
Zebra Kid Mark Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 Losing Gustafsson is a huge loss to the card. I hope they can find a replacement for him but I can imagine Paul Craig will be disappointed as it will be hard to find a replacement with such a big name value as him.
Paid Members SBD Posted August 24, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 24, 2021 Seemingly Brendan Allen is the only fighter thus far to offer to step in
Paid Members Carbomb Posted August 24, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 24, 2021 I'd be up for that, probably be a grappling masterclass.
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 24, 2021 Author Paid Members Posted August 24, 2021 They’ve moved Ankalaev vs Oezdemir to 267 now as well. Like 267 needed it. This card’s gone from a fantastic London card that I would’ve got tickets to, to a fantastic Vegas Fight Night, to now rapidly approaching a ‘they might as well scrap the card’ card in almost record time. Still some good fights on there but literally all the best ones have either fallen apart or been poached for other cards.
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 25, 2021 Author Paid Members Posted August 25, 2021 Seriously, is there even a point to this Sep 4th card anymore? They’re slowly taking every worthwhile fight off it and moving them to other dates. And the one’s they’re not moving are being shagged by injuries. If Till gets injured again (likely) and the Aspinall fight falls apart they might as well pull the plug. Don’t fancy a Molly McCann headliner much.
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 26, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 26, 2021 sounds like Jack Shore is getting a 2nd replacement opponent too...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 26, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 26, 2021 yep... Liudvik was on this seasons Ultimate Fighter.
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 27, 2021 Paid Members Posted August 27, 2021 this still has my attention (and Jack Shore is still slumming it on the prelims):
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 30, 2021 Author Paid Members Posted August 30, 2021 Still a UK timezone for this UK card that’s in Vegas. Only just noticed that Tom Aspinall’s got a new opponent there as well. Sergei Pavlovich out, Sergey Spivak in.
Zebra Kid Mark Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 It's a shame that Paul Craig wasn't given a replacement fighter, he's normally good fun to watch and a co main event spot would have been good for him. Jack Shore's fight is against a TUF season 29 alum in Liudvik Sholinian. He won his first fight on the show but lost out in the semi finals. It will be a good fight but one that Shore should be able to handle.
