What fights are you (anyone) most looking forward to?
Loaded card. Should be fireworks throughout with quite a few caste matchups! 3 straight starting with Parisian, Olek, and Cutelaba. Gamrot Vs Dos Anjos should be a banger as well. That’s only mentioning prelims.

Della Madalena and St Dennis have been mowing down opponents and face toughest challenges yet. Of course Chito vs Sugar will be worth staying up late!

Venom Page’s elusive in and out style from deep range is so awkward. Reminds me of how Lyoto Machida’s Karate style took a while for people to figure out when he first came into the UFC.

Saint Denis is tough. There is no way he can keep up that pace for five rounds. If he doesn’t have the gas tank, Poirer has fought five rounders before and may outlast him, even though he (Poirer) looks tired (Round 2). Poirer has wasted a lot of energy with those guillotines also. Those are high risk (will drain your arms) high reward, especially in a five rounder. *while typing: Poirer by KO. Wow*

The Chito fight had me worried, Sean can't knock him out like anyone else so he had to be near perfect for five rounds.

Anyways, Sean is far superior and it's great that he got to avenge this loss.

BSD's striking defence was lacking and his striking looked weirdly lackadaisical and slow, but he was winning until the knockout, this was one of the fights were I did not want anybody to lose.

I hope MVP gets knocked out sooner or later.

The stoppage during the JDM fight was almost like they really wanted Gilbert to win at any cost, JDM is the real deal, nice reversals he improved his grappling.

The comebacks from JDM and Poirier definitely overshadowed Yans performance! Overall the card didn’t disappoint.

“Jack Della Maddalena broke his left arm early in the fight against Gilbert Burns, per his manager Tim Simpson.

Jack won via TKO/KO in round three. #UFC299”
That was a crazy KO, and he was still winning the fight before the KO even came, hes so good and now hes calling out Shavkat, welterweights most feared fighter that noone wants to come up against, a pretty gutsy move, but again what else can you expect from an Australian man!
