Is Colby vs RDA confirmed for that yet? Woops that's 225. I thought of that one because you said card of the year :lol:

224 looks pretty meh. Outside of Gastelum I'm not going to even bother with that card.

UFC Women's Bantamweight Division is dead :lol: Pennington did not belong in a Title fight and it showed. She wanted to quit and her corner told her to suck it up, that's probably going to create lots of controversy.

Machida, such class, oss. It's great to see Vitor hang it up, he's just not the same without TRT. Vitor vs. Wanderlei was one of the first mma fights I have ever seen and man, it's been fun watching him.

Didn't Vitor say he wants to fight in Russia after the UFC? Pretty sure he'd be back on that TRT in no time :lol:

Also yeah, WMMA outside of 115 in UFC seems very uninteresting. 125 is Valentina's division, 135 Nunes and 145 is on life support anyway.

I thought Jacare won, but why the hell was he so gassed after round one, not good.

I thought he won rounds 1 and 3 too.

According to his post fight press conference, he messed up his weight cut. There was no sauna, so he went with jumping rope instead and his legs felt very heavy during the fight.

He carrying a lot more muscle than back in DREAM/Strikeforce/BJJ days.

He’s still a badass but at this point I don’t think Jacare will reach the title

Yup Usman Kamaru vs Maia was only fight I cared about, and even that one, the outcome is so predictable

That should have been the first or second fight of a card. Not a main event.

Shame Maia took such a stupid risk with this fight. Dana already hates his guts, now after this performance he surely won't get a title shot in the ufc ever again.

All around stinker event. Karate kid vs Magilla Gorilla up next, hopefully its a fun one.

Never forget, she beat the greatest of all time, once in a lifetime athlete. Floyd was lucky he fought Conor, Ronda would have wrecked him...and judging by what Holy did to her, mma math says Holy > Floyd.

Dammit UFC cards are so fucking boring nowadays

Luckily next few cards are looking better, especially UFC 225 and 226. That is, until fighters start getting pulled ...

Relegate one of the most accomplished fighters to prelims to have a fighter on a losing streak face off against an unproven challenger that lost to Cindy Dandois and her vicious striking.

Never bought the Holly Holmes hype

The way she looks on the ground, she’s a high white belt - low blue belt level. Great boxing but this is mma.

She's basically living off of the Ronda win and that's that. She is 1-4 since and her only win was vs Correira who nobody really cares about.

But again, she definitely can beat Anderson. Either way, I could've lived without this fight being on the main card and I am sure most others would too.

ehh, not really

For WMMA, she's up there. She's pretty decorated in her boxing career. Obviously it doesn't compare to male boxing but that's not the bar we should use to compare her with.

Her MMA striking is probably worse than her standard boxing, but her striking definitely is at the top in WMMA.
