    What's your tip for Rousey v Nunes in December and Mystic Mac vs Eddie Alvarez next month?

    GEALE was robbed!

    I hear that he was suffering from altitude sickness, and recovering from a bad cold. Also, his toe was sore.

    He woulda won if they hadn't spiked his water with PEDs.

    Ref was as biased as hell. Stopped the fight early, just as Geale was getting his second wind.

    Obviously anything can happen in MMA but I favour Nunes and Alvarez to win those fights.

    I feel as though Alvarez will really try and nullify Conor early with his grabbling as he did in the Pettis fight. McGregor's cardio looked terrible in both Diaz fights. Alvarez has very solid stiking himself and beat the sheeet out of RDA who looked like a killer in his previous fights. Can't wait for this fight though.

    Nunes can really put a beatdown on an opponent and Rousey could be in for a tough night. You have to consider Rousey's mental state/confidence/doubts in herself after she was completely schooled and brutally ktfo by Holm. Even if it hits the ground Nunes will be hard for Rousey to finish imo. If Ronda loses clearly/stopped she will never fight again imo.

    I just can't see Nunes losing. Don't know too much about Alvarez to make a decisive call against CM

    The Horn kid is fighting some German bratwurst maker on Friday night.
    It is IBF eliminator apparently and the winner will be fed to Errol Spence Junior.
    LOL Spence would destroy Horn & the German bratwurst maker in the same night.

    Well Algieri has fought far tougher opponents than Jeff and ESJ schooled him so you maybe right. Hopefully Jeff can rise to the occasion.

    He can try to buy his way out of it all he likes. He will always be remembered as a drug cheating injury faking bum with a gorilla style.

    Horn should definitely not fight Spence at this stage in career, he has had next to nothing in terms of competition, if he is serious about contending in his weight division, he should get over to the states and start upping his competition, firstly a journeyman then a couple of contenders to see if he has it..... Spence would smoke him right now then he will just go back to club shows being televised on Fox on Wednesday night
