What'd he say about Leon's dad? I don't really watch the pre fight shit anymore.

that he would send leon to hell to be with his dad

 

[BroRogan]

Worse than the issues with pics/gifs is to not have a live thread tbh gonna be a nightmare later LOL

 

[Psychojoe86]

Another thing I want to note: Islam wants to fight for a 2nd belt, same with edwards, ddp, Strickland, etc. Will we start to see a trend of fighters looking past their current opponents/divisions end with defeats? Or wins?

My oldest 2 kids keep asking me about this fight and it's amped up since Colby's comments about Leon's dad. Apparently it's blowing up on IG.

I usually save any praise for Colby for his in-cage performance. I won't praise him here but iffffffffffffffffff the whole thing is a work then he deserves huge credit b/c he's sold the shit out of this fight to the 16-18 year old age group and that's not easy unless you're a Tik Tok Warrior like the Paul's etc.

And, sadly, guys like me advocating for Belal are literally proven wrong by this. It is a business and by hook or unethical crook Colby is indeed selling this fight.

Yeah, I don't see a bunch of 16-18 yr old Tic-Tokers shelling out 100 bucks to buy the ppv just to watch Colby.

 

[don't ask]

He said he was going to kill Leon so he could see his dad in hell or something like that. Classic dummy trying to be clever.

How did 2023 go by so fast

Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was

said he couldn’t even Dunk a basketball

 

[Mr Dilkington]

Good thing about being in the UK. Every fighter is a hometime fighter. I live 45mims from Birmingham and 1hr from Liverpool.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Look at the size of this guy's head

Thats pretty much been my #1 request. Word is we'll have something similar soon.

 

[BroRogan]

Looks like a real banger to kick off the card!

 

[BFoe]

@BFoe is in the building

You know it, grrrrrllllll

Ready for whiskey, dibbles and violence. Not necessarily in that order.

 

[Ares Black]

I am IN, Sherbros!!!!
Get hype !!!!!!!!

 

[Liverkick-king56]

Why didn't we get Luque vs Holland? This card is actually solid all around but that would've been a slick striking match too.

Still rooting for you to get through this ASAP, dude.

And that sucks about your cat We had a cat that ended up riddled with cancer, bless her, she barely complained until late on when there was nothing to be done.

Fuck cancer, and definitely fuck cat cancer.

Thanks man! Very kind of you to say. That's how this cat was. Sorry had to go through that. Pets are gone too soon.

That trend has been going on for a while now, you're just late. Ha

 

[Mr Dilkington]

Yes! First walkout and only 40mins late.
