UFC 244 - Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz go to war for the BMF belt in New York

Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz go to war - and a guest appearance from the Rock!

#UFC244 was a dramatic New York UFC fight as always. The "Dog" Nate Diaz went to war with Jorge Masvidal for the BMF title at Madison Square Gardens and it was a great show of skills from both fighters. 

Nate showed what a hard fighter he was taking blows and giving them straight back. Even Masvidal called Nate a "Dog" after the fight was suddenly stopped by a doctor due to bad cut on Nate's face that was incurred during the early rounds.

However it wasn't bleeding and their cut man had done a good job in preventing it spilling blood everywhere over the Octagon.

Nate was obviously disappointed and demanded a rematch straight away from Dana White and it will probably happen soon as Nate OR Jorge couldn't believe the fight was stopped over a cut, especially one in which we have seen much worse during UFC battles.

If you didn't get to see the action then here it is.

The full fight between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz at #UFC244.

Did you see the guest appearance at the end who put the belt on Jorge?

Yes I didn't believe my eyes at first but it was indeed Dwayne Johnson, or the Rock. Hanging about in the background until he could put the belt on the winner by TKO Jorge Masvidal.

What do you think?

Should the fight have been stopped due to the cut, have you seen worse injuries and a fight continue or should it have been stopped earlier. Personally the worst injury I ever saw in the UFC was Anderson Silva breaking his leg in his 2nd fight with Chris Weidman. What was yours?

Michael Bisping v George’s St Pierre

Michael Bisping v George’s St Pierre

The retirement of Michael Bisping from UFC will be a major shame, especially to UK MMA stars, and I have already spotted him in a film "Den of Thieves" at the end in a coffee shop.

Maybe a career in acting awaits Michael?

 Anyway the fight with GSP who was retired at the time was brutal.

Whilst Bisping was still champion GSP decided to come out of retirement to fight him.

Dana White called it "one of UFC's biggest paydays" and it showed that the time away from the ring had done George’s St Pierre some good with his fighting skills but he still left the ring with a face that you would assume a loser would have not a come back fighter taking on the current champion.

The fights with GSP always seem to leave his face looking like a smashed in doll but he won the fight with TKO after taking Bisping to the floor and getting him in a choke hold.

Bisping's Bull Dog spirit would not let him tap out and he was prepared to go unconscious until the referee stepped in and stopped the fight.

You can watch the highlights of the fight between Michael Bisping and George’s St Pierre right here in case the later full fight video gets removed again by YouTube - why they allow them to be embedded if they don't want people to embed them I have no idea.

Just turn off the ability to copy and paste the embed code - simple - but no they let people use their OWN tool to copy the video to put on other sites and then attack those sites for showing said video. It's totally beyond me why they do this but anyway here are the fight highlights.

I did have the full fight but then YouCensor took it down.

UFC 208 - Dana White Interview

Dana White talks backstage with Megan Olivi and gives his thoughts about UFC 208. He was slightly disappointed from what I gather from his demeanour and voice.



The main event, Anderson Silva v Derek Brunson in which Brunson won on a tie break which a lot of fans, pay per view watchers, and probably Dana wasn't to happy with at all. Spiderman continues to say that at even 41 he will carry on fighting.

So let see some more spider action next time!

Here are some of Spiderman's best moments in the UFC.
