UFC Fight Night Cro Cop v Gonzaga is on PICK TV (152 Sky Channel) 11pm Saturday, Freeview Channel 11.
Wondered why I couldn't find it. Unless Cro Cop is really angry and out for vengeance for their first encounter I think Gonzaga will probably take it.
Thanks for the head up surprised PICK TV picking this up as should be a good fight. Hope PICK get more UFC Fight night matches in the future, don't sub to BT Sports so have to get my UFC matches by other means and watch them on a Sunday evening.
An interesting development Pick picking this up (excuse the pun). I suspect that BT Sport have found what other channels over here before them have, that it is still very much a minority sport over here, and viewing figures have not warranted them buying the rights for the events that fall outside of their deal.
Just managed to watch UFC 186. Nice to see Rampage back and mixing it up a bit with leg kicks. Those flyweights are quick, blink and you'd miss the fight, Horiguchi is a good little fighter but Johnson was just that one step ahead. Glad Bisping got a win also.
They had a lawyer say on UFC tonight that a regular person doing that would be looking at 3 years & would have to try and plea bargain it down to a year in jail. Wouldn't expect Jones to get that because there is too much money involved but at this point he is a complete liability to UFC.
I don't care about Jones, the only interest I had left in his fights would be to see if he'd lose the title the same way Anderson did- get caught showboating- but aside from that personally I had lost interest in him.
Yes i saw the BBC article earlier, must be big for them to run the story.
I'm not a fan of Jones and like JCR said i only watched his fights to see someone take his belt, i truly believed that person was Anthony Johnson but for now we'll never find out.
One thing that i cannot find is how the incident happened?, and because the UFC have stripped him of the belt and suspended him was it due to drink or drugs, whatever the cause i cannot see Jones coming back to the UFC after all this. Personally i'd expect him to be signed up to Bellator as he's mates with Ortiz.

Jones, Anderson, Diaz and all must have really pissed them off. Anyone failing for steroids being gone for 3 years is the biggest change to the sport since Zuffa bought UFC.
Really disappointed in Rumble Johnson, i like him i think he's a nice guy and has a lot of talent, but if you are gassed after 6 and a half minutes in a 25 minute title fight, then you don't deserve the title, he needs to look at his training for that fight.
I also wanted to see Belfort win , but fair play to Weidman it was a good win, he's starting to show he deserves to be the champ.

Huge guys like Rumble are too musclebound to last long in the fight game I thought Cormier fought the perfect fight and am kicking myself for not having a bet as I picked every winner through the card
the Arlovski V Brown was great to watch while it lasted - time now for Donald Cerrone to get a title shot as well
That was the best set of fights the UFC has had for a long time, every one bloody enjoyable.
Still have the prelims to watch, fell asleep last night so at least I could fast forward all the tedious adverts and chit chat this morning, non stop gold.
Thought the whole card was very low quality... Dana white is letting more and more of these poor quality cards through the fans will walk if they dont maintain high standards

Was looking forward to that fight, still got Belfort I guess, be nice to see him remove Weidman's head with a roundhouse kick.
It isn't mate, just being shown on Fight Pass.

It is going to take a very good person to beat her for the belt, and I don't think that there is anyne in the division that is capable ast the moment.
