Very underwhelming card.
Dos Anjos vs Edwards looks way more exciting on paper. A lot of big boi fights.
Many an MMA fan will awake to some invigorating news this morning when they arise to discover the UFC Vancouver main event of Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone and Justin “The Hightlight” Gaethje. Dana White confirmed the bout to Yahoo Sports Thursday morning.
I find this card to be pretty stacked. Dan hooker has fallen from grace but I enjoyed his fights in the past. Ben vs Andrei is another battle of the oldies. I still hate Greg Hardy and it seems like the UFC is riding him really hard. He is getting higher placement than the fights on this screenshot below? Yeah... ok and the thing is that he is probably placed against another dud. Main and comain are solid fights. I want RDA to win but my common sense says that he is probably the underdog by a good chunk. FYI I want to be wrong about Juan Adams... I really doLeon Edwards is a great prospect imo, if he beats RDA which I think is very possible it'll open up a match v Masvidal which could be a fight night main & lead to a title shot for the winner later in the year.

Looks like Joe Rogans wish came true. This will be a great fight to watch.
Pennington/Aldana was a good fight!
I have a love/hate feeling toward "Wars" where both fighters take tons of damage. Careers are shortened and altered, but damn if it doesn't make for great fights.Pennington hasn't been the same since the Nunes massacre. People applauded her corner for sending her back out for the 5th of a fight that was clearly out of her reach and I don't think she ever fully recovered from the damage she absorbed that night. Some athletes just don't recover from fights like that, some do.
What’s the deal with This Greg Hardy being pushed so hard?
That is the move for sure. However, Masvidal deserves the title shot. This situation with champs being out totally blows.I figured Edwards/Masvidal is the angle. Capitalize on the backstage tussle, let the Colby/Usman situation get figured out in the meantime.

I think it would be a good fight but my money is on Jorge beating Leon.
Michael Bisping Says He'd Put His Money On Amanda Nunes To Beat Henry Cejudo
If Michael Bisping were a betting man, he'd put his money on Amanda Nunes defeating Henry Cejudo. Nunes and Cejudo are UFC "champ-champs." Nunes holdswww.mmanews.com
what do you guys think? personally I think cejudo would beat her ass lol
Was just in the middle of typing that up. Hope the winner of Edgar/Holloway can have a quick turnaround to fight Volkanovski there tooUFC 243 heads to Melbourne for Robert Whittaker vs. Israel Adesanya
