- After many rumors, The Ultimate Fighter 24 is set, and the winner will indeed get a UFC Flyweight title fight against the dominant Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson. Henry Cejudo and Joseph Benavidez will coach the teams, and they have the added incentive of getting the title belt off of Johnson so they can get additional title shots as well. Both the title fight and Cejudo vs. Benavidez will take place on December 3.

:dahell:
How you gon throw the TUF winner in against arguably the best P4P fighter, and then have the two fighters he dispatched easily fight for a title shot?

MIghty Mouse breh literally cleaned out the whole division. They just itching for someone to get him.

On another note RIP Rafael Cordiero's mom. If anyone watched the weigh ins, Werdum's shirt had a shout out to her.

Dj should move up an fight cruz if he beats faber. That could be a good fight. The last fight was as close as a UD can get and dj has improved leaps since that loss. They need to cash in on cruz while he is still healthy and this would let the flies develop their division a little.

Only one that would be mad at that is tj, but fukk it. If he beats asuncao have him fight dodson to avenge his first losses

I wonder how he will fare in the UFC if that's where he goes. I don't see him getting that much from UFC tho

From what I remember, every round was a clear 10-9 for Dom....and he had DJ'S face looking crazy...but DJ is better now :yeshrug:

And I'm all about Dodson-Dillashaw running it back.

I think Ill Will can become champ....athletic...strong...powerful strikes...sub defense.....the Saad Awad and Chandler fights make you wonder about that chin, though.


Ben is about to look like Godzilla in that lightweight division now. :demonic:

He became the fighter and champion he is now elsewhere tho.

1st time I watched Lawler fight was in ufc, and I luved em then and luved him now. He had 7 fights in ufc b4 strike force so NO I still wouldn't call him a champion or fighter from another league or company.

Plus da fact he had a losing record in Strike force nor was ever a champ in strike force so a big NO he didn't become the champion he is over at strike force. He just lost a lot. 5 losses to 3 wins.

The 2nd round was murky...Phil was aggressive and was starting to mix his strikes up well....and yall aren't pointing out that he hurt Mo badly in the 3rd round.

I had the 2nd round as a draw and they both split the other 2 rounds...should've been a draw but they were probably feeling pressured to pick a winner since they were involving McGeery so much. Phil's chin is better than Mo's so it'll probably wind up being a better fight anyway.

And that Andre Fialho dude was a MONSTER...Welterweight is becoming a fun weight class in Bellator....The champ, Page, Lima, Fialho, Ward, etc.
