They neither confirmed nor denied that Hughes would receive some of Alves's purse for failing to make weight. However, that is the standard penalty imposed by state athletic commissions in America. I don't know what the case is as this particular show is in the UK.
All over with knees. TBH the fight shouldn't have went ahead. 4lbs over the limit is a joke. Hughes is a spent force sadly.
Yeah, but look at the size Alves? He looked bigger than Bisping at 185. Sad to see a great fighters demise but he should retire now.
Firstly I forgot what side of the pond it was on and miss it. Secondly the I was pulling for Hughes and Vera and they both lost. Thirdly Matt Hughes needs to retire before he becomes a gate keeper and Vera needs to be at 205 where he belongs.
Werdum vs Vera was a ****ing joke. Werdum was tickleing Vera with those shots and that bald **** stops the fight. I was embarassed for both fighters.
Just got back from the o2 and overall it was a good show and had a good time. Its a shame Davis vs Swick was poor as I thought it would have been a decent match. During the 3rd round the crowd did a mexican wave . What prelims fights were shown on the main broadcast?
