View Full Version : UFC 72 - June 16, Belfast.
There have been a few announcements of late regarding some big MMA shows, so I will start a thread for each event...
Rich Franklin vs. Yushin Okami
-Forrest Griffin vs. Hector Ramirez
-Tyson Griffin vs. Clay Guida
-Jason MacDonald vs. Rory Singer
-Jake O'Brien vs. Tom Murphy
-Ed Herman vs. Scott Smith
-Marcus Davis vs. Paul Taylor
-Eddie Sanchez vs. Colin Robinson
-Dustin Hazelett vs. TBA
Kampmaan pulled out of the Franklin fight with a knee injury.
Hmm, initially doesnt look all that apetizing. While we get em all as PPV, this one is going PPV as well in the US, which I would have though looks more like a free tv type card. The popularity of Forrest probably made it PPV.
Doesn't look like there's much interest for this one. Understandable too given the quality of the cards following this one.
Here are some of the pubs showing the event if you think it isn't worth the $40 (http://www.foxsports.com.au/boxing/fight-night)
Yea, not really impressed with this one, although I will probably buy it as I can watch it in the morning, and the Malignaggi-Ndou fight wont start till later.

Are we still doing tipping? The above are my tips.
No Title fights..... Not the most ineresting fight card going around.
I didn't get it this time, but i'm definitely getting UFC 73 which looks to me like a corker.
