where to watch "One" after the fact? Schedule's don't line up and I always miss the live card.

The morning muay thai cards? Youtube. Specifically look under their channel's Live tab:

https://www.youtube.com/@ONEChampionship/streams
here's the one from yesterday morning.

The evening mixed cards broadcast on Amazon Prime, I...think you can also just watch them after the fact there? I'm not totally sure but I don't know where else they would be.

Edit: Yeah they're there, here's the main ONE/Prime page, just scroll slightly past Live and upcoming to Replays and highlights, here's the one from last night.

I'm fine with Page in the UFC, but I want him to fight guys on that Kevin Holland tier for a bit before he sniffs a proper contendership fight. Treat him as an entertaining gatekeeper.

But what if...when's the next London card?

The problem with Covington is that you can see the doubt written on his face. It’s a part that requires confidence if nothing else—and the eyes don’t lie. This dude is constantly shook, afraid he’s going to get his lines wrong, afraid he’s going to get his rear end beat at a Miami steak house, afraid he’s going to die alone.

I'm mostly being facetious, but the number of fights that fell through last year/this year seemed quite high. The number of NHL and NFL players that have already been hurt this season is staggering too. Almost feels like bodies just aren't lasting like they used to.

The first thing that popped out to me that is that Geoff Neal missed weight by like 4 lbs last fight so suddenly moving his next fight a month earlier might not end well

Any cards on tomorrow? I don't do new years, so would be good to have something to watch in the afternoon.

CFFC have a grappling tournament happening in south philly, there's a few UFC fighters on the card.

https://cffc.tv/tickets/fury-pro-grappling-8-december-30-event-2300-arena-philadelphia

I'd consider going to see this but I'm still getting over being sick.

Other than that there's RIZIN's new years show https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/107924-rizin-45

actually now that you mention it, fighting chandler at 185 in this light looks like conor trying to get dana to say no to something so he can take his shirt off and scream redly on insta live about no one wanting to fight him.

Even Chandler's reaction I think can be summed up as "lol ok whatever dude"

Every athletic commission in the US would sanction this fight within a nanosecond. They shouldn't, but they would.

Yup. Deron Winn exists.
