Main event & co-main have potential to be extremely boring XD

 

[IamJust0ne]

Lots of big names even with Tony pulling out. Why is Dodson so low on the card? Is it the UFC pimping out fight pass or is it because he's fighting in BW for the first time?

 

[Sheppy]

I think Rashad will win a UD, and Machida will win a UD, both fights will be pretty meh. Henderson will just chase Machida loading up his right hand constantly.

Khabib might actually murder this dude. He's the next champ at 155, imo.

Dodson vs Manny will end in a KO, and I think it will be Manny on the receiving end.

Pimp Fight Pass.

Really fun card.

 

[Avs_19]

The Machida/Hendo fight is off. Machida admitted to taking a banned substance when they tested him last week. He claims he didn't know it was banned out of competition.

This card just keeps taking hits. I'm still looking forward to Khabib's return, even though it's a tune-up fight now.

 

[m9]

What a mess. Feel bad for those that bought tickets to this, the card looked amazing before all this happened.

 

[Avs_19]

Dodson finishes Manny in less than a minute. Time for the Dillashaw rematch?

 

[TerminatorBlue]

wow good fight...tough to call, Correia?

 

[Jasper]

What a comeback by Chiesa

 

[Avs_19]

Nice finish by Chiesa. I didn't think he would beat Dariush.

 

[IamJust0ne]

Great card so far

 

[Avs_19]

Cub Swanson looked good.

Time for Khabib's return after two years off.

 

[V13]

Now that's what i call getting thrown to the wolves. 13-5 , first UFC fight and get matched against arguably the best in the division who is 22-0 and has a win over the current champ

Well props to Horcher for taking the fight but....well yeah hahaha

 

[Avs_19]

All Khabib, as expected. It probably could have been stopped in the 1st round. He didn't look rusty at all after that much time off.

I still want to see him vs Ferguson.

Would be good fight but i still think Khabib would come out on top. Dude is just an incredible grappler. I also think he beats Dos Anjos again and would beat Connor as well if he ever moves to 155.

The Eagle is for real

I'd favour him in the fight as well. Makes sense to make it next with the winner getting the shot at RDA/Alvarez.

 

[Avs_19]

Pretty good and close fight between Rose/Torres. I could have seen it 29-28 either way.

 

[Killahpunk]

Glover!

 

[Avs_19]

Damn! Glover knocks him out cold. Rashad has no idea what just happened.

Glover calls out Rumble. I'd be cool with that next.

 

[KapG]

I really like Thug Rose
