Derek Brunson out of UFC 200. Mousasi calling for Uriah Hall rematch or Vitor Belfort. Mousasi v Belfort would be a great piece for the fight pass undercard.

 

Miller v Gomi. Sanchez vs. J-Lau. Mousasi vs. Belfort. Oh my.

I really don't fancy seeing Mousasi getting killed by Hall again, Same would probably happen against Vitor but be a great fight.

Bisping has said he want's 2-3 more fights, the names he has called out... rematches against both Dan Henderson and Anderson Silva and then a fight with Geroges St.Pierre. All three of these fights would be huge.

 

From what I have read Bisping vs Hendo 2 is very likely to be his first defence. Hendo got robbed of his title shot because of a knee injury a few years back and Bisping will want revenge for the TUF and the nasty KO Hendo gave him.

A rematch with Anderson will be electric, although Bisping won that fight against Silva. He was very very lucky to not be knocked out by him in that 3rd round. I feel Anderson would be motivated for that fight.

 

Geroges is the mismatch for me as I see St Pierre as one of if not the best pound for pound fighter the UFC has ever had, he is also a complete counter in styles for Bisping.

 

I will give it too him, he will go out with a bang.Which is awesome seeing I've been a Bisping fan from day 1

I'd be content to let Bisping v Hendo 2 happen if contract states both immediately retire or belt is vacated. Just have Jacare v winner of Rockhold v Weidman 2 for the vacant belt.

 

If not give me Hendo v Bisping and winner immediately gets Jacare.

Hendo does not deserve a title shot

Hendo does not deserve a title shot

 

No right now he doesn't but a few years ago he was the #1 contender that was taken away by injury and then he was forgotton about after Machida did his tap and run style. I feel it is just right and one fans will want to see because of their history.

I mean really I wouldn't mind seeing Hendo v Bisping as long as Hendo can't win title off of the fight and Jacare is next in line.

I honestly dont see the problem. If this fight happens it will be Hendo's last anyway so if he happens to beat Bisping then the title will be vacant. He has been a major player in building MMA and the UFC so why not give him one last shot before he rides into the sun set.

 

Jacare's shot will also depend on when Bisping's first fight is and Romero's return.

I feel like Browne over Cain is a bigger upset than Aldo over Frankie.

Browne over Cain would be bigger, Cain is the ex champ and before his injuries was miles better than Browne who has never been close to the title. Both Edgar and Aldo are ex champs and Edgar did hold his title for a year iirc.

Jon popped for doping. UFC 200 fight is off. Lesnar v Hunt main event.

 

 

Fuck Jon Jones. Take him out of contention for title. DC is the rightful champion.

I swear to god that the UFC need to just Cut Jones and be done with it. Yes he has all the talent in the world but he is a fucking liability who provides the UFC with one headache after another. With so much talent coming through right now and how badly Jones has fucked his fan base up after all the trouble, the UFC would be more than fine with out him.

 

Lesner vs Hunt is still going to be a fire main event and tbh considering that's the big money maker for this event, it will probably work out for the best.

I'm not sure if I'm gonna bother buying now. I want DC on card at least. Dude deserves it.

I still feel the card is pretty stacked. I'll probably buy it depending on whether DC is fighting and the price. I usually buy any card featuring Miesha anyways.
