No sympathy for extreme weight cutters.

Brought this on yourself trying to get an advantage by bullying smaller fighters.

Vacate and give Valentina and someone else a shot.

Yeah I never feel sympathy either for fighters who are cutting too much. Did this to yourself.

Valentina must be pissed

Nearly every major fight that was supposed to be on this card fell out.

TJ/Cody
Lawler/Cowboy
Now Nunes/Shevchenko



Thankfully the new main event is one of the best fights the UFC can put on right now.
 
Would've been a SCRAP. Shev beat Joanna in Muay Thai as well prior to UFC. Why wouldn't the NSAC allow it?
Because it’s after weigh-in time. That’s why it was the worst possible time for Nunes to pull out. She was feeling sick for over a week, should’ve pulled out earlier.
 
Dana Candie loves throwing his fighters under the bus and shitting on them when things don't go his way so I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt.

?

UFC's had a grand total of 1 fight at 145. Bantamweight has been the only option for Nunes.

That shit never happens anyway. They'd rather cancel it and re-schedule so they can market it for longer. They arent going to do a fight like this on hours notice.

I'd love to be wrong, but it only annoys me because it never happens. Please prove me wrong Dana. Ugh.

I'm not a big fan of WMMA but I really wanted to see this fight.

Brutal on Shevshenko for Nunes to pull out on the day of the fight.

Think Nunes should have told Dana if she was indeed ill all week - that way maybe we may have seen a fight let alone a possible interim title fight.
