Sage vs CM Punk makes great sense. Both terrible grapplers and big draws.

Sage would still work CM.
They need to find a genuine bum for CM, someone with zero fight experience.

The Aldo slander up in this thread, smh. Y'all shameful.
idk much about that world, so you're probably right. There was a lot of wrestle-gaf that were excited to see him in the UFC203 OT. Though I guess there was a ton of wrestle-gaf laughing at his expense in that thread too.
My point being he can easily be fed to young guns over and over cause there are so many eyes on him.
Naah, Aldo is being a baby. I've been(was) a fan of Aldo forever, but this "I never lost the championship" stuff is mental backflips to the max. Conor destroyed him and the same thing would probably happen again, if anyone is a paper champion, it's Aldo right now.

They know it.
Cain Velasquez ready for Fabricio Werdum despite ongoing pain http://es.pn/2hsPrDf

This is why it's a blessing Cain doesn't have the belt. At least with Steipe we could get 3 fights a year.

Wasn't it Cain who has surgery scheduled after his fight?
Yep. Immediately after. He's also taking medical marijuana to deal with the back pain. No clue how that works out with the commission/drug tests. You can't get exemptions for weed, right?

What the fuck are AKA doing to their fighters to have them all constantly fucking crippled??
I seem to recall they were always going 100% in sparring ala Chute Box, think it was Kos or Swick who mentioned it way back.

Maybe we will get a new legendary fighter.
Pre-surgery Cain. Poor Werdum doesn't stand a chance.

Not that any commission will recognize. Matt Riddle had one in Nevada and the NSAC still dinged him and then UFC let him go.

Very unfortunate that Cain treats himself like shit. The guy hurt himself more in training than in the actual fights. Its sickening.

Statement from Cyborgs camp
This was her first random drug test outside of the normal fight camp testing. It would make sense and be the reason that she turned down a championship fight in a weight class designed specifically for her. Especially since her last fight was in September and she was tested on December 5th so medication for severe weight cut goes out the window.
Can't really take a stance though until they reveal what exactly it was that she poped for.

Really, just think about it. Rousey defies the odds and reclaims the title, announces her retirement, then this happens:

52-year-old politician/pro wrestler Shinobu Kandori got hurt
Gabi Garcia's new opponent is 49-year-old (50 in two weeks!) pro wrestler Yumiko Hotta, who is shorter and lighter than Kandori was in that ridiculous image of Kandori/Garcia facing off
RIP

The medication is part of the POST fight therapy and I believe her this time. However it doesnt mean that she didnt juice her brains out in the past (she has).
The ultimate should just set up an interview with Ronda and Cris and ask them difficult questions. Ronda is bipolar and crazy and she could break Justinos armor and make her cry and thats when I grab the popcorn and let it rock!

Diuretics can be used to mask usage of other things.
After Ronda gets smashed next week it won't matter because we'll never hear from her regarding anything related to UFC ever again.
Her publicists will demand that no interviewer for movies or whatever even fucking bring up that she was ever a UFC fighter, I have no doubt. Ronda is insane, I can't think of a single story by anyone in the company that makes her come off like a mentally stable person, whereas there's several backing up crazy shit like Meisha Tate's stories.
Has to be in terrible shape too. A physically fit man with no fight experience but youth, speed and explosive power on his side would kill him.
What stories? I only saw the stuff on TUF. The coaches always play up the feud for the cameras but Ronda came out of that looking like a legit nutcase with real mental problems.
<-- I miss Ronda

A big part of Ronda coiming out looking poorly was because Tate played innocent but it's known that Tate and Calloway are both shitty to opponents out of public. Like the incident where one of them elbowed Cat Zingano in the back of the head while walking behind her chair backstage at an event.

So Honda doesn't have to do any media for UFC 207, can avoid any questions, yet Conor gets kicked from 200 for not wanting to do a presser.
Makes sense. And people say Conor gets preferential treatment. At least it's understandable if he does due to the draw he is. Dana has no backbone towards Honda.

She didn't do any for 193 either

Yesssss! This is what I've been hoping for for years now. The way the set up is now its very hard to be anything but a casual fan unless you're rich or willing to do nefarious stuff to see the content.

Brett Okamoto reporting Werdum vs Velasquez is off. NSAC ruled out Velasquez for medical reasons.
