Excited for Barao vs Stephens. That has FotN potential. Someone keep the baron in a padded room til then.

I would love for Cain to smash that idiot, but we know he'll never make it to the fight.

You want Caim to fight Dan Severn?

my first thought is, so who is really gonna fight travis browne at ufc 200?

 

[Brerlappin]

Urijah Hall v Silva rumoured for 198

 

[FUME5]

Tank Abbott out of fight vs. Dan Severn, replacement being sought

Send up the Keith Hackney Symbol!

For truth, justice and the American way!

 

[FUME5]

Urijah Hall v Silva rumoured for 198

No longer rumour:

 

[parrotbeak]

Wow, that fight is going to be so hyped and will be the MMA equivalent of an oxycontin valium combo.

 

[alr1ght]

Andy is going to lose to Uriah fucking Hall, isn't he?

[op_ivy]

Yeah

Sobs

 

[juliushandle]

not just lose but KTFO by some spinning shit

 

[Archaix]

Andy is going to lose to Uriah fucking Hall, isn't he?

There's always the very real chance that the fight ends in a no contest when the ref stops everything just to make sure time itself hadn't come to an end. Nobody loses if nobody attempts a strike.

Do they just judge it like a dance-off in that event? If so, you don't have anything to worry about. Anderson's got this one.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Well if Hall tries to hug him as much as he did Doomsday I think Candy will be fine.

 

[VoxPop]

living the dream right now

 

[alr1ght]

Rogan would wreck him IRL.

 

[Levito]

I don't dislike CM Punk, or pro wrestlers that come over to try MMA. However I do hate that he's probably going to get paid better than any UFC fighter that isn't Ronda or Conor. Hope he gets his ass handed to him and the UFC's plans blow up in their faces.

 

[FUME5]

I only had enough time to create a fighter and do the TUF entry fight (sidenote, the intro to this one using the Lawler / McDonald fight is genius) before a friend came over last night, I did not know Rogan is in this.

Got some of the boys heading round tonight, I know who I'm using now.

 

[MrSerrels]

This seems like a bad match-up for Barao. Stephens is a big 45er and hits hard as shit. I see him losing this fight.

You need to unlock him first, Konami Code in title screen.

I think I'm starting to see the UFC plan for Ronda.


She wants to come back in November or October right?

What better way to show off the UFC than the first MMA fight in New York and MSG than Ronda going for the belt?

UFC already has a November date set aside.

The UFC sets aside a NYC date every few months hoping it'll get legalized by then

It might finally get voted and signed into law next week.

It would be the second UFC show in New York. They ran in Buffalo in 1995.

 

[nick nacc]

Man does it feel like Pettis just dropped off the face of this earth to anyone else?

 

[Fox318]

But the assembly is going to vote on it this week.

 

[TheCool69]

For some reason Sage is posting in Russian?? Put apparently he is fighting in Summer

 

[Maklershed]

Hmm he does kinda look like a young Ivan Drago. And he's the right age to be his son. And the Russian thing? Could it be?!!

Conor vs Diaz rematch at UFC 200?

http://www.mmafighting.com/2016/3/18/11261716/conor-mcgregor-vs-nate-diaz-rematch-in-the-works-for-ufc-200?utm_campaign=arielhelwani&utm_content=chorus&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter


Why? I'd much rather see him defend the FW belt

But the assembly is going to vote on it this week.

Oh yea? Strange that the usual suspects haven't been tweeting about it this time

Err... what?

Frankie will have an aneurysm. Conor must badly want revenge. Its risky, as a ripped, confident, full camp 155lb Nate is even worse.

 

[alr1ght]

Now that fight makes no sense unless he's getting a huge cut of the ppv. He'll get beat again and his stock will drop terribly. Him losing really fucked up their GSP/Connor plans.

 

[Levito]

Conor vs Diaz rematch at UFC 200?

Why on Earth is Conor not defending the FW belt? This seems like a terrible idea.

Him losing really fucked up their GSP/Connor plans.

Hah GSP would run through Conor like a hot knife through butter. That fight will never happen.

 

[BigJonsson]

That would probably be the main event too, non-title main event for 200? =/

 

[Eanan]

Looking more and more likely that Conor is never defending that belt, unless Frankie and Aldo fight at 200 to determine the No 1 Contender.

 

[Dysun]

Ariel had been beating that rematch drum and no one listened

 

[Collateral22]

Looking more and more likely that Conor is never defending that belt, unless Frankie and Aldo fight at 200 to determine the No 1 Contender.

For vacant FW belt more like.

This is at 170 again too =/. Not sure how I feel about that. If he paces himself and listens to his corner I think he can win it. A more prepared Diaz will give him a better fight though.

 

[IKizzLE]

But why? Another meaningless fight.

 

[Heel]

Looks like Bellator Kickboxing has a headliner on the way.

 

[alr1ght]

Hah GSP would run through Conor like a hot knife through butter. That fight will never happen.

Of course he would, which is exactly why GSP would want that fight. Easy fight and an enormous payday.

 

[zewone]

Rematch doesn't make a lot of sense right now.

After the loss, Conor defending his belt makes the most sense. Or if he gives it up he can fight whoever he wants.

 

[Levito]

Immediate rematches are hurting this sport, at least from a PPV customer's point of view. McGregor vs Diaz 2 at UFC 200 makes no sense and isn't interesting.


I think Conor really doesn't want to cut to 145 anymore and that's why this is happening.

So fight a lightweight contender

I personally think a rematch is still more interesting than Dos Anjos, Edgar, and Aldo fights.

How are you not intrested in seeing Edgar fight seeing as how he has dominated the division and one of the greatest UFC fighters ever?

I mean even if Coner loses you have an Aldo vs Coner fight stilll there...

 

[brentech]

Diaz has a personality.

I hope this is some seasoned MMA humor, uce.

 

[-MD-]

He needs to vacate his belt if he's going to keep taking fights outside of that division. Have Aldo vs Edgar at 200 for the title.

This rematch though lol, does he think it'll go better for him when Diaz gets a camp this time? His stock will plummet if he takes back to back Ls to him.

 

[iddqd]

I like this sport better when it keeps a healthy fiber diet of spectacle and sport.

Diaz/Connor was fun but it would be great if he would get back to defending the belt once or twice before the crazy stuff comes up again.

Gotta eat your Edgar oatmeal to wash out the Doritos.

 

[Jest Chillin]

Edgar bores me. Not really sure why. I think the trifecta of Maynard fights combined with how much he whines in general have just soured me on the guy.
