Is that independent or state run media?
Crazy that they got the Rock considering he stays very far away from any wrestling media/podcasts.

Uncle Dana is probably the editor, if he knows how to use a computer.
Yeah, official UFC podcast, but they've had some really interesting interviews so far. Serra trips all over himself, but he and Jim work well together in this situation.
Every now and then it gets a little too loose for a minute or two and it feels like the awkward bullshit at the start of Dana White Looking for a Fight, but 95% each episode has been great so far.

Always good to keep in mind that Ronda is a Sandy Hook truther.
Cool maybe I'll check it out.

That article has an incredible amount of conjecture, outright speculation, and even more cherry picking.

I know that faber is an anti-vaxxer.
DC must have been told by Dana that you can't call Jones a drug addict or junkie because he says everything that's close to it without saying it.
Counterpoint: Dan Quinn
I thought he was a Salvia spokesman.
That audio quality...
Because he arguably beat Jones, and had a close decision with DC.
Having close fights shouldn't warrant you a top spot when you beat none of the top guys. Bader Davis and Glover should all be above him.

1) Bader is terrible and will be knocked out by Latifi (Gustaffson's training partner) in September
2) Davis is in Bellator
3) Glover is actually ranked above him lol
This is the current UFC rankings at Light Heavyweight :
Champion : Daniel Cormier
1 Jon Jones (Interim Champion)
2 Anthony Johnson
3 Glover Teixeira
4 Alexander Gustafsson
5 Ryan Bader

In other rankings fun, Cain is #2 in the HW division with his last win being in 2013 and Michael McDonald is #5 in BW and has one win since 2013.
I sorta get Cain a little bit - HWs are volatile and if he could keep healthy he has a good chance of beating anyone. But McDonald has the likes of Garbrandt, Lineker, and Dodson ranked behind him. How does that happen? And I say this as a long time McDonald fan.

Maybe doing 6 sets of 50 reps of 300lb leg extensions isn't a good thing.

Good. I'd rather see that than Jacare, Weedman, or whatever.

Hendo as a champ in 2016 would be incredible.
And I know I'm almost 2 years behind the curve but holy shit is Run the Jewels 2 good.

It's not a bad idea for a fight but it's just the fact Bisping has the title and Jacare/Romero are definitely top contenders. Weidman/Rockhold are right there.
And I don't understand how Cain could be #2 when Arloski, Overeem, Stipe, Werdum, Dos Santos, etc have fought and remained relevant in the division. Browne is a good matchup for him.

Why even worry about rankings when Joe Silva and Dana have no issues ignoring them when creating matchup?
Maklershed

The Ali act would certainly make things interesting in that regard. If I understand it correctly rankings wouldn't be allowed to be ignored.

If that's the case it might just lead to creative ranking. Imagine eternal #1 rank fighters like Dodson or even Tate constantly derailing new talent while never being able to beat the champ.
Ken Flo might just come out of retirement for that.

Tate IS the champ so she's not ranked. I'm not sure how rankings work under the Ali act. Who does it. I know now it's supposedly a consortium of journalists but I figure the crew UFC chooses from are idiots or practically on the payroll. I'm curious who would do it if it passes - the commission? *sending the Sien signal*

God knows what Cains trainers are thinking with that regime of his

I was referring moreso to the fact that if the UFC was forced have fighters fight by ranking then Holm never would've got the shot and would've lost to pretty much any of the women ranked above her at the time. Rousey would have continued to dominate all non-striking based challengers including Tate and Tate would never have held a title.

Fuck all compared to 189 or 194.
I'm excited.
Brock is terrible at hyping fights despite his WWE background, and Jones/Cormier banter like prepubescent COD players. Far cry from Rampage and Rashad's epic black on black shit talking.
McGregor and Diaz would've made this card much more entertaining to follow.

What kind of ppvs have you been watching? 200 is fucking stacked with or without Brock.

Agreed. Every fighter on the main card has been a headliner except for Sage Northcutt's opponent, who still has a modicum of notoriety for being on Latin TUF.
