Sweet..

Hope there’s a sudden sandstorm during the main event so that Maia can lock in a hold while Silva’s distracted..

Conan : You are known as a striker. Is that correct? Tell me what that means.
Chuck : Well I like to punch people, or kick them.

That’s the only shot I give Maia!

nothing to panic about i guess.

UFC in the rain would be awesome.

I give Maia NO CHANCE if they fight outside when it’s pouring.

jesus!

30 with the humidity is quite hot! Not scorching, but you’d definitely be sweating without moving. Has there been any word on if they would do a rain delay? Or simply fight and deal with hundreds of complaints/excuses from both fans and fighters?

Mir sucks, FreeNow82 was right!

this idea all sounds honky dory in theory

..but it could be a huge mess if blowing sand, or lighting, or rain, or humidity etc cause legit excuses for a fighters complaints. Add that to the ever growing illegal strikes, and low blows, plus eyepokes and we could be in for a long and controversial night. It’ll be interesting to say the least.

I'm sure it'll be fine

Zuffa will just buy nice weather. fire some money at the sky, out of a solid gold cannon. I don’t think they would have done this without considering weather. must be some kind of provision in place, maybe it’ll have some kind of covering stretched over all of the crucial bits.

On a side note: “honky dory”, how do u like dem apples? Lol

lol Wordy, ur a train wreck brotha :-))

In China didn’t they have some thing that they shot up into the clouds to make them drop the precipitation before it hit the main land. I think it was for the Olympics or something. Probably would be a good idea for this, but I’m hoping for rain! How cool would that be? Mostly because it can’t happen in an indoor arena (obviously) and would be so dif. Curious how the fighters would react to such a thing. BRING ON THE THUNDER!!!!!!!!

i dunno man. if their slippin om kick attempts etc

It’d just turn into a grapplefest. We’ll see I suppose. Shoot shit into the clouds, the more weird stuff to talk about Monday morning the better.

Mir sucks, FreeNow82 was right!

I'm guessing

It’s around 70-75 in Abu Dhabi..

never underestimate the power of billions of oil dollars and tens of thousands of workers imported from other countries with little oversight about safe/health regulations.
