Last weekend's card was better top to bottom.
Yeah I was surprised by this. While Crute looked decent in his last outing it's definitely a jump up in competition.I know most people don't care about this fight but it bothers me that Sam Alvey is the underdog to Jim Crute for some reason.
Fair call though Dong and Smith should be a decent scrap and Kai Kara France is supposed to be decent, Crute looked solid in his last outing plus Lando almost always brings it. Certainly top heavy.
I don't understand why the UFC do this to themselves. This event relies SO MUCH on the 2 top fights. If one of those fights falls out, the event is a total dud.
I remember that being bad on paper but ended up being a pretty damn good night of fights. Hopefully this follows suit because there alot of fighters ive never seen before on this cardThe Aussie PPV card has been pretty weak as of late.
Last year we got Romero vs Rockhold for the interim belt with a co main of Blaydes vs Hunt
This is much better imo
yeah, I don't think its the worst card i've ever seen in my life or anything, but, this is really mediocre at best. Of every card from ESPN+ debut until maybe the card in O2 (I don't remember the full card off top of my head) this is by far the worst card of the bunch and its 1 of 2 PPV's. I'd have much rather have paid for last weekends card or the cain vs Francis ESPN card than this one.
no WMMA on the main card at least. Count your blessings.
I can’t believe they are still having fight pass prelims. Such a joke
driving 7 hours to melbourne to watch it, wish me luck
It's only at 18k stadium compared to MCGWith a sellout and tickets on the resale market going for 3x face value. I think Australians think the card is good enough to watch in person. Cards like this are usually end up very exciting as most of the fighters have a lot to prove. So they prove it by actually fighting, not dancing or running.
Sam got finishes by lil Nog didn't he?I know most people don't care about this fight but it bothers me that Sam Alvey is the underdog to Jim Crute for some reason.
Fair call mate. Hoping it's one of those cards that under promises and over delivers. The Co-main and main should be great regardless. As for the Cain Francis card I'm not convinced Cain's fighting again until I see him making the walk to the cage, I mean what's it been 2.5 years since he last fought?yeah, I don't think its the worst card i've ever seen in my life or anything, but, this is really mediocre at best.

Probably because Alvey is just going to shuffle around the cage waiting for a chance to land a counterpunch bomb. Chances are that won’t happen and he’ll lose a decision.I know most people don't care about this fight but it bothers me that Sam Alvey is the underdog to Jim Crute for some reason.
