Exciting card on paper. Let’s hope the action is not marred by poor reffing and shit judging.

Yet some people in here don’t even plan to stream it.

That’s what they’ve said.

This contrarian shit needs to stop. It’s brutal, mein freund.

It IS the MOST stacked card in the history of this 31 year old sport.

 

[Siver!]

Nice and early with the picks.

This is what I need to help me with my Tap. And I really like Embedded, because it gives me that fight week news, and feeling.

Are they looking even a little bit peaked when the wheels touch the ground. I want to hear about it. I need that airport arrival footage.

True story.. I’ve never seen BJ, or any other fighter in an airport.

Cool. We'll have a blast in the PbP thread.

 

[blaseblase]

I'm noticing there's a lot less naysayers, two months ago everyone was shitting on the card.

By the Numbers: Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill​

Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO Dana White had unequivocally delineated his vision long back while teasing the magnitude of the upcoming landmark UFC 300event. His plan was unmistakably explicit; each bout on the main card of the evening should embody the potential to headline a Fight Night event or even a pay-per-view on any given day.
Yet, as the matchups were incrementally disclosed, a discernible undercurrent of discontent pervaded among the fans — not solely stemming from the caliber of the scheduled card, which without question underpinned the main card, but rather due to the glaring lack of a premier attraction capable of transcending the spectacle to uncharted heights. It’s unclear if those uncertainties were mollified with the revelation of the main event spectacle that would pit freshly crowned 205-pound king Alex Pereira, set to embark on his first title defense, against former champ Jamahal Hill.

“Poatan” seized the vacant light heavyweight throne when he defeated another former champ, Jiri Prochazka, via TKO in the second round of their main event clash at UFC 295. These developments in the division came by the stroke of misfortune as Hill ruptured his Achilles tendon playing a basketball game during UFC International Fight Week 2023, which led to him relinquishing his title. With the stage set for the grand spectacle, we take a look at some of the statistical intricacies that bind the fighters together:

2 years/7 bouts: Pereira’s rise in the UFC is unprecedented, underscored by the fact that he took the shortest time and fewest bouts to win championships in two divisions in UFC history.

1: “Poatan” remains the only fighter in the history of the organization to lay hands on the middleweight and light heavyweight throne.

4: The Brazilian’s explosive ways have garnered him the Performance of the Night honors on four occasions.

62%: With a significant strike accuracy of 62%, Pereira ranks fourth among the best across all weight classes.

50%: Besides his offensive prowess, Pereira displays a commendable defense, evading 50% of opponent’s strikes.

70%: The 36-year-old averages 70% takedown defense, a testament to his ability to keep the fight standing and evade grappling advances.

6.99: With 6.99 strikes landed per minute, Hill occupies the second spot in the 205-pound bracket for the same.

157: Hill achieved the fourth-highest significant strike differential and the second-highest in UFC championship history in his fight against Glover Teixeira at UFC 283.

562: He also holds a significant spot at No.3 across all divisions for most significant strikes attempted at 562 against Teixeira.

1: “Sweet Dreams” is also the first Dana White’s Contender Series graduate to become an undisputed UFC champion.

As tempting as all that is, and I wasn't even invited by the way but that never stopped me before, I'll be living it up in the Casa Siver!

Good food from my open air kitchen

and if any of y'all get thirsty:

Come on down, guys, there's room for all!

I'll be there and even help clean up!

*closes kitchen cabinets and drawers, drinks too much squirrel hooch and falls asleep by the 4th fight

All of us loyal followers to the JBG will must be satiated and ufc 300 will satisfy our dampness

If he's up for it I'd like to see an official JBG UFC 300 post/thread by the man himself @Thrawn33

Nice to see Chuck with the belt, he got that look in his eyes again

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

They should have brought back Chuck and Mike Goldberg for UFC 300. I would have loved to see either Chuck vs Tito 9 or Chuck vs Randy 16
