Sports will break your heart.
Anyone watch the first episode of Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series on Fight Pass? Apparently there were some great fights.
I don't like the TUF part because that means we have to wait until December or the fact that Poirier doesn't get his rematch but I love this fight.
Joanna hits harder than Khabib.
Lesnar re-entered the USADA pool
https://www.bloodyelbow.com/2017/7/...urn-rumors-mark-hunt-drug-suspension-wwe-news
Jeff Novitzky says Lesnar hasn't re-entered the USADA testing pool and he still has more than six months left on his suspension. It seems like the whole thing is BS because the original report also said he was targeting a return for the November MSG card, which wouldn't be possible.

I don't trust a word the UFC says..
Confirmed fights for the Edmonton card.....
Demetrious Johnson vs. Ray Borg
Amanda Nunes vs. Valentina Shevchenko
Junior dos Santos vs. Francis Ngannou
Gilbert Melendez vs. Jeremy Stephens
Henry Cejudo vs. Wilson Reis
I told myself I wouldn't get tickets until closer to fight night after what happened with the Calgary card a few years back but now I think they're going to make me do it as soon as tickets go on sale.
Cain for the interim title now that Miocic is holding out.

Seems like an event where secondary market tickets will be cheaper than face value.
Unless I can get tickets for dirt cheap, I'll pass on the Edmonton event. JDS vs Ngannou is a great fight, Stephens vs Melendez should be fun, Nunes vs Shevchenko is meh, and I have no interest in watching flyweights under any circumstances whatsoever and there are 4 on the main card.
I swear DJ has been on a few UFC cards now in Canada and 1) they all do so poorly 2) people end up leaving before the main event and 3) all the cards have generally sucked
Stop putting DJ on PPVs. Of a year of terrible PPV buy rates DJ may set an even lower buy rate.
Vancouver - 115,000 buys (many left after MacDonald)
Montreal - 125,000 (just an overall horrible card, co was Page/Fabio)
UFC in Toronto next year deserves something big. McGregor at Rogers...
