      Hey! I’ve got chucky and Nunes. I’m pumped for the olives vs Beneil!! Hopefully it’ll be 5 rounds of high octane grappling.

        Nobody predicted what actually went down, and I couldn’t believe it!

          I knew there was a chance due to other fighters stating how hard Charles hits. I figured beneil would know that and just chain wrestle and try to keep top position. Charles just made it look easy....

          I knew there was a chance due to other fighters stating how hard Charles hits. I figured beneil would know that and just chain wrestle and try to keep top position. Charles just made it look easy. After Volk made Islam look mortal, I can see charles doing much better in a rematch.

            Honestly, I would like to see a Volk/Islam rematch. I’m loving what Craig Jones is doing with the meta.

    I think Oliveira by decision, Nunes by TKO.

      The production isn’t that great considering their revenue. And the advertising is obnoxious. I’ve watched a few ONE events and really enjoyed them. The mixed rules and Muay Thai make for a fun...

        ONE is the most fun for sure. Part of that might be how they don’t always have very even matchups though. Still fun to see Rodtang styling on people though.
