Yeah when I realized the card was in AUS I was hopeful for a Saturday morning card. Just once I'd like to have a proper PPV with breakfast on the East Coast

Rda, iaquinta, barboza, mcgregor are all very good. Johnson, tibau, tavares and healy are all solid. Shalorus is excellent.

If Kamal had employed the same gameplan he used against Jamie Varner, the outcome would have been different.

He's not a scrub but he's pretty middle of the road, which to me makes it more telling that he had as much success as he did.

If the only options were JBJ and Stipe, I guess I'd rather see DC have a 1% chance of beating Jones than having a good fight with Stipe.

e: maybe he could get on Turinabol if it's his retirement fight.

He doesn't have any major weaknesses. There's no one thing where you can go 'just do that, and you'll probably win.' Khabib beat him by wrestling him (at which he is superlative) and sticking to a very safe but effective gameplan on the feet.

Yeah, if we're not getting the circus of the Brock fight, I really don't want to see him finish up his career with yet another tainted loss to Jon Jones. I'd be happy if he goes out on top while still relatively young and with his faculties intact.

Would anyone be angry or sad if DC just went full roid and beat JJ at heavyweight. Popped and retired.

I'm quasi-thinking of going to this, too, but I was just gonna look at how pricey tickets are trending before committing. You can always just do the newsletter presale that starts on Thursday.

For me it says Kai Kara France is fighting Raulian Paiva, and Lando is fighting Marcos Mariano. Neither guy has a photo but apparently they do exist.
