Imagine having the cheek to use Robert whitefords picture from last time and not even give him a fight on the card, out of order!
Douglas
Brendan Armstrong
Conor Mcghie

Craig Thomson
Is there any news on the open workouts, weigh ins & Q&A yet? It’s nearly fight week!

Thanks ??
Bobster Watson
Still no Rab ?
Just cos hes scottish doesn’t mean he should get to fight at it…he was dropped from the ufc…only good thing he done was in glasgow 2 years ago…thats just the truth
I’ve been following him for years, well before he got a contract at the UFC.
It’s not the truth, it’s your opinion.
I would have loved him to be on the card too! It’s a weak card as it is
Shocking he’s still not on it. So many people not taking their tickets because he’s not on it.
Theres a lot worse fighters in the UFC. And he’s coming off a first round finish of a UFC vet. He deserves to be on the card over guys like Charlie Ward (another McGregor team mate living off his accomplishments).
Robert Garbett
Ross Wallace
Derek Craig
Bring out the bearjew ?
Pure shite Jones isn’t coming to Glasgow ☹️?
Im sure at least two decent names will be on the card eventually but beggers can’t be choosers ?
After party in mango wee Dana on the decks ?
Plus McGregors yeam mates fighting. Might make an appearance and do another 3 day bender ?
On one with that pellet .. beggers can’t be choosers ??
Who else thinks BJJ is cool ?
Yeah just give us any old shite and we’ll spend the money anyway. Insulting card. Felder vs Ray is the only decent fight there
Get JoJo and Whiteford on that card! Come on, do the right thing ??
Kevin
Get jojo in there. She is well due a fight!!!!
Calderwood should fight Cynthia Calvillo
Rachael Graham
