We had Matt Hughes. We've got Brown Pride. When are we gonna get a real kill whitey kind of brotha in the octagon ?

If he doesn't gas terribly, Kevin Casey has a chance of beating up a dude named both "Bubba" and "Bush" at the same time. That's close, right?

Just started thinking about the Rousey-Davis matchup in detail: Davis is the highest-ranked grappler that Rousey has ever fought in MMA (Kaufman is and was a brown belt, blue belt Carmouche took her back), she's tough, and loves to trade leather. She's not likely to get folded with a knee the way McMann did, and Rousey (who doesn't react well to being punched) is probably not going to want to trade with her.

Is Davis perhaps more of a live long-shot underdog than the odds are giving her credit for?

Unless Davis has a Matt Brown ability to fight through a liver shot, I don't think there's evidence in saying Alexis wouldn't get dropped like McMann.

I like her and I like her tiny mascot buddy, Chompers, but I still think Ronda's probably got a 80% chance of winning.

Also, why would you not count Tate amongst the grapplers Rousey has faced?

The only upside to TJ beating Barao badly again so soon, other than silencing all Brazilian Excuses once and for all, is it would send Barao to the very back of the line at 135. Basically the next 2 years of 135 would have to be made up of TJ/Cruz/Ascuncao/McDonald/Mizugaki/Faber/etc. and that's cool.

Also in other news Ronda Rousey was asked if she would consider fighting on UFC 176 to save the card and she said sure, if UFC needed her to do so. I don't think UFC wants to burnout one of their only PPV stars but her crushing the "quickest turnaround between title defenses in company history" record twice in one year would be

Who even would she defend against, though?

So far, yep. Fight Pass cards have specifically been for cards they couldn't get TV deals for in the states because FOX has no interest purchasing a Macau card that happens live at 4 am. But UFC 176 would fit that mold of a card with no TV deal so Fight Pass would be appropriate. They would change the name from a numbered event to a Fight Night though, probably.

I dunno where Dan Henderson's health is but they should pay him money and make him the new main event of UFC 176 against any lovely LHW they can find. That's good enough.

Hendo vs Fabio

It's why not everyone can coach. Been able to get the best out of a person and work around their weaknesses is hard. The Chael/Jones TUF was a great example of this, you had Chael working guys to their abilities whilst Jones would show techniques to people that they just couldn't do. Jones just didn't realise that not everyone can do what he can.

So, Fox (not FS1), will be airing the later Prelims before the next Fox show, for the first time ever. Obviously, you'd think the UFC would decide to capitalize on this by putting on some truly stacked prelims to capitalize on this extended opportunity to grab some new fans. Unfortunately:

UFC on Fox 12
Anaheim, CA
July 26
Main Card on Fox (8 PM Eastern):
� WW Title Eliminator: Matt Brown vs. Robbie Lawler
� LHW: Anthony Johnson vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
� FW: Dennis Bermudez vs. Clay Guida
� LW: Bobby Green vs. Josh Thomson

Prelims also on Fox (6 PM Eastern):
� LW: Daron Cruickshank vs. Jorge Masvidal
� LHW: Patrick Cummins vs. Kyle Kingsbury
� WW: Tim Means vs. Hernani Perpetuo
� FW: Mike De La Torre vs. Brian Ortega

Prelims on FightPass (about 4 PM Eastern):
� LW: Akbarh Arreola vs. Tiago dos Santos
� FW: Noad Lahat vs. Steven Siler
� LW: Gilbert Burns vs. Andreas Stahl
� WSW: Juliana Carneiro Lima vs. Joanna Jedrzejczyk

Main card's solid, nothing mindblowing.

For the televised prelims though, only Masvisal vs. Cruickshank really makes sense here, and even that is questionable as a lead in to such an important main card. Patrick Cummins vs Kingsbury might be passable as the opener, you're never ever going to get me to care about Tim Means, and I have no idea who the gently caress Mike De La Torre or Brian Ortega are.

Also, as an aside, Jedrzejczyk is pretty loving badass. The only reason she's not ranked by anyone is because she's been fighting at FLW until now. Check out her fight with Rosi Sexton, Jedrzejczyk hits hard as gently caress for her size.

Brian "T-City" Ortega is a dude that hangs out with Rener Gracie a bunch and apparently does really good triangles.

Cowboy put on 19lbs in 7 hours after the weigh-in. Now, I'm no mathematician, but if 1 litre = 1 kg, then 19lbs is about 8.6 litres which is approximately 25 bottles of Budweiser.
Having that sort of weight advantage will surely be negated by the hangover he'll be dealing with, no?

edit: http://instagram.com/p/qfw7cGuffw/?modal=true

A pint's a pound, the world around, so yeah, that would be 25 1/3 12oz bottles (Which is impossible because Cowboy always finishes his beer). Maybe like 20 beers plus a steak
