You weren't followed on the way to the GDT for UFC 211: Miocic vs Dos Santos 2, 10PM ET Satudray, May 13, on PPV, were you? Good, there's a lot of eyes and ears out there, gotta make sure They don't know our moves. By the way, this is a PPV, so don't ask for streams, that's the easiest way to end up on the grid, with black helicopters circling.

UFC is back in Dallas, where not only are 3/4 of the co and main events previous winners, but the second best conspiracy took place: the Kennedy assassination by "lone gunman", Lee Harvey Oswald. The greatest conspiracy, of course, is the inability to defend the UFC heavyweight title more than two times in a row.

:siren: For the Heavyweight Title:siren:


Stipe Miocic(c)

vs


Junior "Cigano" dos Santos

It’s a heavyweight rematch as two of the few non-fats in the division square off with gold on the line. JDS took a decision win in their first meeting, two years ago. Since then, Stipe’s rattled off 4 wins in a row, while Junior is just 1-1. Can Stipe have a brush with greatness as he looks to tie the all-time record for consecutive heavyweight title defenses at TWO, or will Dos Santos further cement the Curse of the Supperweight?

Conspiracies at play:
  • Stipe actually did tap to Overeem’s guillotine, but it was ignored so Miocic could break the defense record.

  • Junior Dos Santos purposefully took two hellacious beatings from Cain Velasquez, sapping Cain of the total number of rounds he’d be able to fight in his career, leaving him susceptible to defeat by Werdum, more injury prone, and unable to break the defense record.

:siren:For the Strawweight Title:siren:


Joanna Jedrzejczyk(c)

vs


Jessica "Bate Estaca" Andrade

Strawweight title is on the line as the second longest reigning among active champions, Polish kickboxer and adorable violence dispenser, Joanna Champion defends her belt for the 5th time against yet another tiny Brazilian, Jessica Andrade. Andrade, a former bantamweight, despite being a mere three apples high, brings both a dangerous submission game and solid punching power to the teensiest division.

Conspiracies at play:
  • Joanna is actually an expensive blender

  • Jessica Andrade really is Claudia Gadelha

Welterweight


Demian Maia

vs


Jorge "Gamebred" Masvidal

Could it be, a title eliminator? Maia has won 6 straight, and has been “deserving” of a title shot at like two fights ago. Masvidal has moved up in weight recently, having decided his breakfast brownies are always a good option, and has won his last 3 at 170

Conspiracies at play:
  • Demian Maia hasn’t absorbed many strikes in his last couple of fights because he actually died after the Ryan LaFlare fight. Since he couldn’t finish LaFlare and even got points deducted for stalling and butt flopping in the fifth round, Maia’s jiu-jitsu shame was so great, he took his own life. Now, he exists as a semi-corporeal form, capable of submitting opponents and other, minor tangible activities, but is unable to receive another title shot.

  • Jorge Masvidal is the mysterious Pettis uncle that watches Erik Koch bang and double teams chicks with his nephews, Anthony and Sergio. He fled to Miami early in his teens, estranging himself from the Milwaukee branch of his family.

Featherweight


Frankie "The Answer" Edgar

vs


Yair "El Pantera" Rodriguez

Edgar is finally reaching Old Man Age for Tiny Boys, but he might still be skilled enough to beat Rodriguez. Yair, fresh off the murder of BJ Penn, and less fresh off taking Alex Caceres the distance, is looking to add Frankie Edgar to the list of Impressive and Yet Also Relevant Names I Have Beaten. It’d be the first, so Yair really wants to show off his Kick Style in this one. He also wants to become the New New New Mexican face of the UFC, after Tito Ortiz simply existed, Cain Velasquez's decrepitude made itself apparent, and Erik Perez lost to Bryan Caraway.

Conspiracies at play:
  • Frankie Edgar’s striking coach, Mark Henry runs a pizza place. A slice of pizza is shaped like a triangle. A 2-d representation of an Illuminati pyramid looks like a triangle. Frankie Edgar bribed judges to score fights in his favor with pizza.

  • Yair is the prototype that Travis Browne was based off of, and it was expected that a heavyweight with such an array of kicks would be unstoppable, but there were severe issues when scaling up in size.

Middleweight


Krzyzstof Jotko

vs


David Branch

The former World Series of Fighting dual middle and light heavyweight champ is finally back in the UFC. Sporting a 10-fight win streak, Branch wants to take every opportunity to showcase himself as a legit talent. Krzysztof Jotko is 19-1, and is riding a 5-fight win streak, all in the UFC.

Conspiracies at play:
  • Despite a 6-1 record in the UFC, Jotko does not actually exist. Think about it, have you ever seen him fight? Of course not. He's about as real as the moon landing.

  • Branch, desperate for max exposure in his UFC return bout, violently smashed Henry Cejudo’s hand to bits in order to get on the main card.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
if Junior Dos Santos wins tonight he's the greatest of all time for sure. However, he probably won't, so Stipe is gonna be the greatest. Until Cain comes back but that poo poo ain't happening so it's not even really worth talking about.

According to sherdog Krzysztof Jotko's most recent wins are over Tamdan McCrory and Thales Leites.

New theory.

Krzysztof Jotko is a time traveler from 2008 era UFC that was temporarily erased from existence.

I think so too. If Joanna wins convincingly itll be really impressive especially since itll be her 5th defense
