why didn't dana just wait until march like Cyborg wanted? only had to wait 1 month.
Robert Carter
...
Brody Jenkins
Cowboy is gonna get his face boxed off.
Oliver Sanchez
Because Cyborg is a steroid abuser who cornered herself out of her profession
Leo Ross
Thanks for the effort OP, good thread
Blake Peterson
They're all on steroids.
Kevin Allen
>Hey we're thinking of giving you a title shot against this opponent >I want it to be in Brazil in March >Okay how about an even easier opponent >No I want it to be in Brazil in March
It's another Aldo situation. Why risk getting a champ who will refuse to fight when called upon to do it?
Jonathan Watson
WHO?
Brody Hill
To assert dominance
All these uppity fighters are rightfully being put in place
Andrew Robinson
Because they needed a headliner for a specific event.
Landon Parker
For once Dana is right.
Michael Russell
Except conor
Jack Robinson
I don't think its the headliner, likely a comain.
Tyler Ross
Are new UFC owners going to run company into the ground?
Zachary Martinez
apparently aldo vs holloway will be the headliner.
David Allen
When was the last time a title fight wasn't the main event unless there was a second title fight?
If it's for 208, Holloway hasn't signed the contract yet and I can't think of anyone else who'll be good to go. Maybe Bisping?
Camden Howard
cant be any worse than dana desu. also dana still makes all the shit decisions so probabyl gonna be the same old shit
Henry Turner
>unless there was a second title fight?
I think Aldo/Max will headline
Isaac Rivera
Bisping will continue to duck Homero
Brayden Peterson
>When was the last time a title fight wasn't the main event
UFC 202
Joshua Jones
>taking the initiative to learn a third language
brazilians like aldo often opt out on relying on translators instead
Cooper Cooper
Bisping will duck Romero till June.
William Richardson
oh and Holm/GDR would be a laughable headliner
Charles Hill
Waterson and Mickey will win.
Owen Johnson
...
Nathaniel Williams
I think Germaine will murder Holly.
Thomas Allen
Should I do it?
I have a feeling that I will bitterly regret it...
Jaxon Perry
>Holm/GDR would be a laughable headliner
No it wouldn't.
Germaine got folded like a mattress by Amanda Nunes. She'll do nothing.
Jose Gray
>two consecutive losses >title shot wtf i hate holly now
Andrew Richardson
>No it wouldn't.
*tips fedora*
its a good fight but no way should it headline a PPV
Liam James
>no way should it headline a PPV
Why not exactly?
Brody Ross
stop holding bitterness in your bum heart
Brandon Bailey
>Ronda wins at 207 >Holly wins at 208 >Holm vs. Rousey II at MSG >2 million buys confirmed
Toast to good business.
Owen Davis
>coral springs
Robert Walker
>Holm has power in her hands
I regret starting this meme.
a) that was for the McGregorweight belt b) I meant "when was the last time a title fight wasn't the main event when there wasn't another title fight on the card". There wasn't a title fight on 202.
We're in the post-200 world, lad.
Jeremiah Rodriguez
S P I C Y I C Y
Sebastian Perez
...
Thomas Ortiz
Thanks for remind me where I live, bro.
Owen Bailey
because nobody knows who GDR is and Holm's stock is diminished after 2 losses. Would sell very poorly.
Angel Collins
will alex stop speaking to him now
Connor Ward
>her hands
If you said this you're a moron. Most of her KOs come from headkicks, she's otherwise pillow fisted, even during her boxing career.
>when was the last time a title fight wasn't the main event when there wasn't another title fight on the card
UFC 196
>McGregorweight belt >Tfw 202ers are real
Adam Rivera
>Would sell very poorly.
Would do much better than anything Bisping or Woodley headline.
Andrew Lee
>coral sperg
John Gray
I completely forgot that Holm got choked out on a McGregor card, thanks breh.
>implying I wasn't being sardonic
Juan Ortiz
Yeah but only Brock Lesnar is close to being roided out of available weight classes
Is holding a Gooberbelt at some point more important for your professional and economical success than an actual belt?
This really made me think today
Anthony Nguyen
GO BENNY
Joshua Cook
It's some shit Brazil card, they always drag out the old Brazilian names for those cards
Hudson Miller
Is Holly Holm the most undeserving title contender in the history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship?
Brody Ramirez
Brazil cards are always good casual.
Jeremiah Evans
The McGregorweight Title is the most prestigious title in all of combat sports.
Sebastian Hernandez
Why are you so butthurt about it? Is your name Ronda?
Robert Powell
>ywn eat out that weight cut asshole
Did you not watch Bader v Nog 2?
Dan Henderson.
Ethan Scott
>professional depends how you define it >economical definitely yes, you get double, perhaps triple red panty nights
Lincoln Jenkins
Not interested in watching a bunch of old post-steroid brazilians fight lad
Wyatt Stewart
the whole thing is retarded. Cryborg cries about no 145 division and then when it finally comes she turns it down. like all of a sudden its hard for her to make 145
Ian Parker
>Unironically asking this after Bisping fought old man Hendo for the belt just 2 months ago
Josiah Butler
No doubt
You beat McGregor, you become famous and you get to lose a rematch after you've negotiated a tidy deal with the UFC
Luke Miller
what kind of dog does goober have?
Parker Ortiz
Miesha retired and Shevchenko is already undersized for 135 as is.
Who else would you give the shot to? I'm genuinely interested to know.
Andrew Allen
Don't talk about Dee like that.
Wyatt Cruz
Shevchenko would beat both of the title challengers and twice on Sunday.
William Lewis
>memeing
Serious answers only.
Christian Hill
She already mollywhopped Holm once, and I don't see anything in de Randamie's game except size that she's better at against Shevchenko.
Julian Ortiz
Dan was coming off spectacular KO win over a top ten opponent.
I would do some kind of 4 woman or 8 woman tournament.
Lucas Roberts
Hector Lombard is a fat welterweight and Henderson was ranked 13. That was utter bullshit and you know it.
Liam Walker
The fight is at 145 dingus.
Cameron Adams
>Hector Lombard >top 10
Lol idiot
Austin Howard
Yes, and?
Adam Perez
Their striking is marginally different
Jayden Jackson
i want to see vanzant and northcutt having sex
Joseph Nelson
>Barboza-Dariush CONFIRMED for Vitor-Gastelum card
Luis Parker
Shevchenko walks around at 135 so how can she compete for the 145 belt? Think for a minute.
Nicholas Gray
>>JDS vs Struve 2 to headline UFC FN 105 This match makes no sense
Connor Allen
Unironically because they needed a main event for 208
Seriously, they've created an entire division for a PPV
Nathaniel Edwards
By weighing in between 136 and 145?
Neither did Bader Nog 2, and yet here we are.
Zachary Clark
Waldo is already pussying away from Max ? lel
Benjamin Mitchell
>By weighing in between 136 and 145?
Are you being intentionally stupid my man?
This is like saying Frankie Edgar should fight for the welterweight belt.
