Jesus for whatever reason I got UFC 173 confused with 172. Luke Rockhold vs Tim Boetsch sounds like a real loving fun fight. Not. Tim Boetsch was amazing when he uppercutted Okami into outer space but what the hell has been doing after that fight is any one's guess. I used to really like the guy. Glover better win. I threw up on myself in the middle of a night club in the VIP here in Vegas because the Jones vs Rashad fight was so loving boring. The day started amazing and ended shittily thanks to that fuckin fight so I have a lot of animosity towards Jones.

Cool dude Kevin Lee is ditching his terrible camp in Michigan for somewhere in Las Vegas. You might remember him as having a pretty entertaining fight against Al Iaquinta at 169. I hope he kills poo poo now that he has a camp around him that isn't suited for the loving C-leauges.

Imagine 4 ridiculous Rousey matchups on Twitter. Say the matchup most plausible for Ronda is sent to the back of the line. April Fools works the same way.

A fighter's dropped out of a fight and they're going to be working on a replacement on Tuesday to announce for Wednesday, at a guess? e: VVVV Oh yeah, it's April Fools. What a stupid day. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 09:53 on Apr 1, 2014 |

Or there's no announcement and he's just joking about nobody believing anything on the 1st of April.

Worth reiterating that Matt Brown thought Hendricks/Lawler was them "playing pattycake". Meaning he thinks that fight was insufficiently violent. That is a scary man.
