Lloyd Boner posted:That is an extremely cool lineup of champions I've been debating making a thread specifically about this but it's sort of a huge undertaking. Basically I don't think people appreciate how great the current lineup of UFC champions are. From personalities to skillset it's the strongest it's ever been and so greatly varied, at like every weight class you can see someone who is badass at something few if any of the other champions are. But there are like 13 of them and jesus christ that's gonna be a lot to write/hunt down gifs.

Hendo vs Jacare is a bad bad fight lol. Like you could pull any name out of a hat from 185 for Hendo to fight and the one I'd want to hear the least is Jacare. Brown vs Gastelum is cool though.

Trolled by Hendo: Dan Henderson ✔@danhendo Cause, it's NOT Jacare...I'll give you a hint. #rematch Edit: my guess? Bisping. Anderson would be neat tho.

I think someone posted something when Rafael dos Anjos beat Pettis, they claimed that cards in Texas have a higher incidence of upsets because Texas Athletic Commission is much laxer on drug testing so people can juice a lot. Was there an article with numbers backing up the claims or was it just a crazy conspiracy theory?

I wondered why Aldo said he wished to see Werdum on the same night he fights Conor. That seemed like a sort of weird quote at the time but now it makes sense. An immediate rematch is disgusting for Cain vs Werdum but whatever. Werdum was saying he might miss the rest of 2015 so if that's what it takes to get 2 Werdum fights this year then fine. Also it will be sweet to bet on Werdum when he will for sure be the underdog again. wait a second is Cain Velasquez seriously about to go like 5 loving years in a row where he only fought the same 3 people. How in the

I feel like KG is a pretty bad matchup for Brown. Like if Gastelum gets him down I dunno if Brown's grappling is good enough to avoid getting choked out.
