First, incredible OP.

I really wouldn't mind at all if they put cormier in a non title fight with gustaffson. It's one thing to get in the cage and fight because you're a loving fighter, and another thing to get in there and put a lot on the line without any time to prepare.
However, I am very worried that 99 percent of MMA fans would think cormier is a pussy for not putting the belt on the line, but he's not a pussy anymore since he made Jon Jones cry.

Jones & Cormier are now tied for making each other cry at 1-1.

Brock just weighed in and like all fighters was asked to stay on the scale for 5 seconds for press photos and just walked off and out of the room. He really doesn't give a poo poo.

I appreciate it! It was really fun to write, but in a way it was among my most challenging to write: like channeling ee cummings through the lens of a profound learning disability.

Prelims info was added and I will be adding an entry for Anderson shortly. I apologize for the haphazardly on this one, it was kind of a bitch of a card to keep up with these last few days.

Yes, it seemed much safer than my usual mix of "who will win the title fights" when there were like 16 possible combinations even before the Jones Silva Shuffle.

Non-roided Anderson at 198.5lb seems to be a guarantee we can't expect a brilliant roided 205lb performance like his other 3 LHW fights.

For a special, light heavyweight bout, of the night

DC Dannel Cormiay (c but not for the night)

verse

Anderson �SpideSilva�

Did you know they spell Daniel Cormiay�s name wrong, on all the UFCs and onlines and stuff? They write it like �Cormier� but I heard him say it with his mouth, and that�s not how it is like that. Everyone makes fun of me on the youtube comments about not being able to talk good and stuff, but, heh, but guess I�m not the dummie now this time, huh Dana? Heheh. Danielle�s real AWESOME at wrestling, he�s got AWESOME punches, buddy, let�s look at that. Knockouts over AnthonRumble Johnstons, and Bifgoot, and he wrestled real AWESOME in the college and Olympics. But is only loss, is to Jone Bones, who he was suppose to fight for the best light heavyweight, of the night, before a unfortunate accident with a supplemen made him too strong to fight. Buddy, let me tell him, what he�s thinking tonight?

Wow I can�t believe it, the 185 years old champ, Anderson Silva, back again with a dominating fashion. Buddy, let me show you, what he was champ, when I last fought for MY UFC belt, in 2006, verse Chuck Liddell. That was a long time ago, but he was champ for a long time too, not until the Allmerican Chris Weedman fought him, he knocked him out and that was crazy, then the rematch when Spider went for a kick him, and his leg got like gum you chew too long, let me tell him what he was thinking. He hasn�t won in a while but that�s ok, all credit to his warriors but he�s had some injuries, they were real hard to overcome, he works hard to do this, this is in his blood, fighting is what he loves, so it just wasn�t his night, for four years. AWESOME, I can�t wait.

and don’t forget to make your choices, of the best fighters, of the night

We are getting really close to the new main event of UFC 200 being hosed. Johny hitting the scales now, someone off to the side asked him if he was going to faint and he said he'd try not to. He's heavy, going to the towel now. 171.25 with the towel. Johny has missed weight. Hendricks was visibly shaking on the scale. Miesha Tate weighed in apparently in the back privately and weight is good. Gastelum hitting the scales with a minute to go. Gastelum makes weight at 171.

If Gastelum and Hendricks are /both/ off weight, they'll probably work out a catchweight and have them fight, but they're not going to be very popular with management for a while, especially since this isn't the first time for either of them.

If Miesha misses weight for her first title defense... hoo boy. Dana and Lorenzo are gonna be apoplectic.

Le Saboteur: Dec 5, 2007; I hear you wish to ball, adventurer..

From the murmuring at the weigh ins it sounds like Johny has an hour to cut the quarter pounder. But considering he was shaking on the scales and whoever was with him was worried he was going to faint he probably shouldn't.
