No.

Holloway should have that.

And that makes so we see the top 5 featherweights all fighting within 24 hours. pretty cool

McGregor/Cowboy would be awesome.

Lots of interesting matches at Lightweight. McGregor/Cowboy? McGregor/Dos Anjos ? McGregor/Khabib? McGregor/Barboza?

Lots of cool fights.

Maybe Nate Diaz can go on some kind of win streak and we could get McGregor/Diaz. That would be hilarious.



edit: Also if Nate Diaz loses his next fight vs Michael Johnson(possible) they should make Daron Cruickshank/Nate Diaz happen. I don't know why, I just want to see that fight for some reason.

I hear you wish to ball, adventurer..

Both these old rear end heavyweights are cool as gently caress. Going through Frank Mirs fightography on fight pass and he's got some cool finishes.

Also he calls his own fight off against Ian Freeman because Big John seems to wish for Mirs death.

I hope Fedor comes to the UFC and assembles a mixed record of bad losses and random KOs by goofy Russian hooks, proving that he was always the Slavic Roy Nelson.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

Which recent card was the one where every. single. fight. owned again?
I've been a little out of live MMA since being back in Germany for a while and I'm trying to get my new, non-poo poo roommates acquainted with MMA. Thought about going through a selected number from our FightPass Favorites, but I kinda want to turn it into a bit of a socializer with drinks, snacks and the whole event feeling.

me too.

But since I don't see that actually happening I just want Fedor to go 2-2 against decent competition in UFC before retiring again. that will give everyone obsessed with Fedor enough ammunition to talk about him for another 10 years.

Sprecherscrow posted:

Ricardo Lamas is currently 2-2 in his last few fights and is scheduled to fight Diego Sanchez, a man who hasn't competed at 145 yet and hasn't fought in over a year. Max Holloway is on a 7-0 run fighting Jeremy Stephens, a pretty solid featherweight.

I like Lamas and he's good but I'm not the only one who thinks he's behind Aldo, McGregor, Edgar, Mendes, and Holloway or else he probably would have been scheduled to fight on that weekend too. Basically UFC wants Holloway on that card so if there are any injuries to Aldo/McGregor or Edgar/Mendes they can save both fights. Like if Aldo gets injured again they bump Edgar up and then put Holloway in against Mendes. Lamas wasn't invited to that party.

Since it comes a few weeks after Aldo vs McGregor & that sweet FOX card instead of a month before them, that might draw some new eyes to the fight. And instead of the undercard being Michael Bisping and Who Gives A poo poo it'll probably be a sweet NYE stacked card. I think this one worked out for the best as long as it doesn't get rescheduled again.

So the UFC added Ben Nguyen vs Ryan Benoit and Rich Vaculik vs Random Can to 193.

Looks like that's a full card. :sigh: Can't believe they want to headline a stadium show with a 30 second main event and a bunch of lovely locals.
