=BK= Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 Jackson has had one amateur fight and one pro, losing both and losing to Mickey Gall worse than Punk did. So they went out and found Punk the easiest fight they could short of grabbing some homeless dude off the street for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is legitimately the fairest fight they could book for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and Mike Jackson is 4-0 (4KOs) in professional boxing, so Punk is going to lose again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skummy Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Has anyone watched the first Quintet show yet? I'm watching it now, and bloody love it, though some of the rules seem a bit arbitrary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meacon Keaton Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 If Punk loses this fight, he's gotta give it up at that point, yeah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forky Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I would think so but he's pretty damn stubborn. I think it would be his last fight in the UFC though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Quote UFC®, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, and The Walt Disney Company’s new Direct-To-Consumer & International segment along with ESPN, have reached an immersive, multi-year media rights agreement for exclusive live UFC content on ESPN+, as well as across a variety of ESPN’s television, social and digital platforms, in English and Spanish, taking effect in January 2019. This first-ever rights and distribution agreement between the two companies provides for 15 live UFC events to stream exclusively on ESPN+ -- the recently-launched multi-sport, direct-to-consumer subscription streaming service from The Walt Disney Company's Direct-to-Consumer and International group, in partnership with ESPN. Each event will be branded “UFC on ESPN+ Fight Night” and will deliver a full card of 12 UFC bouts. Kevin Mayer, Chairman, Direct to Consumer and International, The Walt Disney Company said: “One of our goals for ESPN+ is to bring sports fans of all genres content they love and are passionate about, and this agreement with UFC is illustrative of exactly that.

We will now have the ability to deliver fights to our young fan base wherever they are and whenever they want it.

Benjamin Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 It's just confusing to me, because they say that Fight Pass is still available. So do I get rid of my Fight Pass and get ESPN+? So weird since they already have Fight Pass, why keep it if they have ESPN+ now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forky Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 Jesus, that kick from Machida was something I would have expected about 10 years ago, not last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tristy Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Looks like ESPN is getting the TV rights that FOX currently has. $300m a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arjen Robben Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Yeah, this isn't for Punk, he needs to just stop. There's living out a life goal and there's getting destroyed like this in pursuit of a goal that you can't achieve. This is sad to watch.
