💰 👋

harvey.leonard161d ago

Rousey to win a bad fight. Struggle to see Carano being in any kind of fighting form after 17 years away

Paddy pimblett doesmt need any more stock he didnt need the UFC at all if anyone knows paddy is a star already win or loose. His proved now he already had proven his obviously a WORLD CLASS fighter top 5 on earth in that devision which arguably has the most talented fighters out of all the devision in the lightweight devision.

dr.cheyno245d ago

Who has he beaten that's world class? Remind me.

harvey.leonard246d ago

Wouldn't use the term world class yet. Think he's missing a big win

♥ 2

kyle.dimond247d ago

He's definitely a star win or lose but I think if he'd got stopped in the first or second it would have really hurt his momentum.

Who agrees that when rescheduling Harris vs Nunes that it should be a Main Event!!!!? Period

seabright05163d ago

Ask yourself why they never made an all female ppv card and you'll be able to figure it out LMFAO, any compliment of a female fighter or possible excitement level has to end with " for a girl " for girls" here ill go first " Amanda hits hard FOR A GIRL.

kyle.dimond248d ago

Totally agree, though it won't headline the White House if Kayla is back in time for that card

harvey.leonard248d ago

Absolutely. Regardless of Gaethje vs Pimblett turning out to be an entertaining one, that should never have been put as the main event over Harrison vs Nunes

Tsarukyan? Never even heard of ya until Paddys name brought yours up. You riding his coat tails Bubba? You're just a baby throwing shots at him whenever you can. You know why, because youre a loser. Start acting like you care and show some respect for others and also yourself maybe?

angmaraboli243d ago

Really? You never heard of him? And you call yourself an MMA fan?

dr.cheyno245d ago

If you never heard of him until Paddy said his name then you're clearly not an informed UFC fan.

paigecamdad249d ago

Never heard of him? Tell me you’re a complete casual without actually telling me.

7.18million households watched UFC 324!

Are you surprised to see such a massive number tune in on Paramount+?

jwalker02740234d ago

Anybody that's outside the United States that couldn't view on Paramount Plus get yourself a VPN problem solved

dr.cheyno245d ago

It would've been double or triple if they actually streamed it as part of Paramount plus outside of the United States.

jordan.ellis250d ago

It was always going to be massive.

Pick Paddy Pimblett's next opponent...

esmagicman104d ago

He should fight Ilia next assuming he wins against BSD. Both Ilia and Paddy were undefeated in the UFC until they got beat by Gaethje. With the bad blood between those two it would be a great fight.

augustinejtrujillo193d ago

Dan Hooker would be a good next opponent for him.

alanorr41172196d ago

They will give him hooker

What's the first Justin Gaethje fight you'd show a new fan?

'The Highlight' has multiple classics under his belt, let us know which one is your favorite.

johnporterjordan152d ago

His first in the UFC.

jmpalos81163d ago

The KO of Vick was beautiful

knifeart666246d ago

I've never thrown a punch and just happen to have my thumb pop out and gouge someone's eye🤔 Easy way to wear down an opponent by continuing to punch at it make it bleed and give them something to focus on defending while you work the rest of your strategy. I call this cheating, but apparently the rest of the world didn't see it this way.

How do you think a fight between Valentina Shevchenko and Natalia Silva would play out? 🤔

The Brazilian contender is 8-0 in the Octagon after her second straight win over a former champion at UFC 324.

donaghcorby1997250d ago

I think the real winner would be whoever opts not to watch it.

jamie.theodosi252d ago

I've always been extremely high on Silva and UFC 324 isn't changing my mind.

harvey.leonard252d ago

As much as I like Silva and her fighting style, this feels like the kind of fight Shevchenko will resort to just grappling for. She's shown a willingness to lay and pray over entertainment, so we'll see that against Silva

Who would you be more excited to see Petr Yan defend the bantamweight title against?

Did 'Suga' do enough to earn a rematch at UFC 324? Let us know in the comments.

kylejamessandy222d ago

Sean o Malley because I said so lol

pope03301988233d ago

Merab would be the better fight. Peter took down Merab what do you think he is going to do and can do to sean?

paigecamdad249d ago

Why can’t Zahabi get a shot? He’s on a 7-fight win streak and is the only deserving or semi-deserving guy who hasn’t fought for the strap.

What did you make of the first UFC event on Paramount?

Some fans complained about the ad-heavy coverage following UFC 324.

mickeyfin1240d ago

now that you have a new station for the UFC can we get some new announcers instead of exaggerating fanboys filling up the fight calling with oohs and ahhs and wows. Just call the fight and leave the oohs an ahhs to us

mickeyfin1240d ago

it's good to see top fights without the PPV cost. That said, I'm hoping for better fights down the road. Seems like we keep getting Holloway7 vs whoever. Where's the new blood and I'd sure like to see a few more Americans and English speaking fighters on the cards.

neilbarker692245d ago

I didn't mind the ads, I did mind all the music playing over t top of the commentators trying to do their piece too camera. You couldn't hear a word!! Hopefully it's just teething problems.. Apart from that keep up the good work.

Who do you want Justin Gaethje to fight next?

gerry.elishathompson136235d ago

I'd say the champ ilia cause he's already been put to sleep by max and Arman is just a push boy. Justin and ilia match-up sounds like more sense of you ask me guy's and girl's. Paddy deserved that title shot over any of the fighter's. He's more exciting and has better skills

justinholton837235d ago

Keep the boring inbred dagastanis off the White House card

jason.marion246d ago

Justin should be the BMF.

What's your thoughts on Paddy Pimblett after UFC 324?

'The Baddy' showed tons of heart during his five-round war with Justin Gaethje.

tonebell156d ago

Paddy will get b eaten by z Frenchman

Well after punching Justins fist with his face and not backing up anything he said was gonna do. I give it an F, who cares he can take a punch. I’m sure his brain wouldn’t agree

Tell us your thoughts on Josh Hokit...

The 8-0 UFC heavyweight certainly has a way with words. 😳

jbdizzl545178d ago

This is what happens when authentic is considered boring

mike12yankees250d ago

I have never heard of him, is he any good?

kyle.dimond253d ago

He makes noise and I guess that's something, especially at heavyweight. That being said, it's painful to watch.

Should the UFC ban weight cutting?

Cameron Smotherman collapsed on stage after making weight for UFC 324.

johnporterjordan163d ago

A max percent of bodyweight allowed to be cut should be implemented.

russianroulette3715245d ago

D. White, like D. Trump are both stubborn and stupid !! They thought the world evolve around them and make decisions fit only to themselves.....time to show them who's the boss by not buying the PPV. Rather watch the delayed telcast instead unless worth the money and time.

kyle.dimond254d ago

Smotherman's comments don't suggest that he had a big cut which makes it tough. I do think the UFC needs to be more proactive with getting people to fight closer to their natural weight

Is this guy the future of the lightweight division?

Paddy Pimblett will fight Justin Gaethje for an interim title at UFC 324.

jamie.theodosi254d ago

I mean, he likely wins on Saturday night but with a guy like Arman waiting in the wings, his reign will never last long

kyle.dimond255d ago

He'll be in the mix but Tsarukyan is younger and I think most people would favor Arman in that matchup

harvey.leonard255d ago

Think he will no doubt hang around the top for a while but I struggle to see him having a long title reign at any point.

What is Derrick Lewis' best KO in the UFC? 👊

'The Black Beast' has knocked out Curtis Blaydes, Alexander Volkov, Gabriel Gonzaga, Travis Browne and many more inside the Octagon.

mwmaddox55252d ago

No accolades for quitters!

kyle.dimond255d ago

Definitely Volkov. Peak Derrick Lewis to ignore MMA common sense and land that shot.

seabright05255d ago

I had $ on volkov and was screaming get away from him you dummy then the bomb landed lol

Which UFC 324 star has a better chance of dethroning Petr Yan in 2026? 🤔

mitchellbeau1983252d ago

Kape will dethrone 🤑

jordan.ellis253d ago

You simply have to make Yan vs O'Malley 2 after UFC 324.

kyle.dimond255d ago

Umar but I don't think it's that wide. Yan should've beaten O'Malley but the striking was competitive and I don't think Umar can control Yan with his grappling.

Far too emotional to ever become champ imo. Let alone the skill set. He's a fun fighter to watch though no doubt.

Not convinced after UFC 324. Arnold could've won that.

Gaithe,porier,alvarez, are the top war wagers, id give the nod to Dustin since i can't recall him losing a bloodbath

jordan.ellis258d ago

Dustin is just that slight bit more calculated, which makes him a better fight but also slightly less fun to watch

Will Paddy Pimblett's lack of discipline come back to haunt him?

'The Baddy' gains more than 50lbs after every fight😳

jamie.theodosi257d ago

I think the fact he's never missed weight in his career says more than how he blows up in between fights. Fighters are human too, guys, they enjoy food too🤣

kyle.dimond258d ago

Definitely not. He's super disciplined when he has a fight coming up

harvey.leonard258d ago

I feel like we've seen him answer this enough times with his performances

Is the UFC 324 main event a mistmatch?

One TalkingPoints user thinks Justin Gaethje will run through Paddy Pimblett.

mike12yankees253d ago

Still waiting for the day that someone pummels Paddy.... Is this the day?

wisemannyoka55255d ago

nope i doubt there's ever been a mismatched fighters and if so for sure that's what Campbells will be always looking for to keep the fans on the edges of their seats; if it's a mismatch then this one is nteresting and I think the pressure is more on pimblett to prove his not getting favours let's go!!!

kenchurchill256d ago

Justin has good takedown defense and thats Paddy's strongest part of his attack but he might have been putting in training for a stand up, he might confuse Justin although i think Justin is the harder fighter, punches harder but takes a few incoming to get the good one to connect so if Paddy can use that to his advantage then we could see a very interesting

Now that Kayla Harrison vs Amanda Nunes is off, which UFC 324 fight are you looking forward to the most? 🤔

33plusman258d ago

Me? I'm looking forward to Valentina's next fight. OR the PFL's Dakota Ditcheva return. If neither of them is fighting, no other female fighters matter to me at all. Wait! That's a lie. I forgot the amazing thug Rose.

kerlarosario025261d ago

Im upset because Kayla called her out n know this like if u knew why u did this Kayla anyway Amanda is a good respectful woman but she will knock u out

kyle.dimond262d ago

Probably the main event just because it should be a great watch. Allen vs Silva is also really good
