Conor just tweeted this video

press conference starts soon

 

Let's goooooo!

I feel like this sport just got the shot of adrenaline it needed. The injuries and drug test failures have killed much of the momentum of the most exciting cards recently, so if this one comes together...oh man.

 

the video is pretty similar to the one they used for Brock prior to UFC 200

"CAN YOU SEE ME NOW?"

 

Helwani starting the hype train

 

presser delayed 12 min and counting....this is happening.

 

Watching the countdown right now waiting on the presser. I'm torn on TJ and Cody doing an immediate rematch. On one hand, I loved watching these two fight the first time and really want to see it again. On the other, I feel like it kind of diminishes the impact of the story - feuds with Cruz, feud between TJ and Team Alpha Male, that moment after the fight where they got in each other's faces. Now they're forcing them to run it back. Oh well.

Cody also makes me cringe with his attitude sometimes. Like saying TJ was classless for screaming at him after the fight...he clearly stood up and ran straight into TJ as he was celebrating.

 

Finally starting

lets goo

 

ROMERO VS COSTA IS ON

YES

 

There's no way Till makes weight by 228. Dude is enormous.

 

I was just about to say this.

He looked like a heavyweight next to Woodley

 

No shit, he looked like Rumble in there

 

Adesanya has the potential to be a huge star imo

 

Nate is in the building. God I love all these guys.

Edit: Seriously, I don't think there's a guy up there I don't like.

 

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

THANK FUCKING GOD

 

Dana was terrible at hiding that...fuck yes.

 

I’m so glad they’re doing it in October and not hyping it for 4 months and doing it New Year’s Eve weekend.

 

I think they’re gonna convince DC to defend the LHW belt at MSG for the main event.

Otherwise you’re looking at Rockhold vs Weidman.

 

Who would DC even fight? Not saying it’s not an option but I legitimately don’t know who I would be excited to see in there besides Gus maybe.

 

Romero Costa is gonna be sick

 

Welp

 

I wonder what Conors getting paid

 

What? What happened

 

I honestly think they’ll give him someone lower ranked.

Latifi is ranked third and doesn’t have a fight. Why not haha
