Not to take anything away from Conor, but it's going to be tough to call him a 2-division champion when's he's been given the opportunity to keep a belt (without defending it) until he wins another.

 

[LinusCaldwell]

Aldo shouldn't fight anyone unless it's in a different division. Eddie has to be weary of Conor's check hook left. I been said all along Conor's stamina a huge weakness. Something Eddie and Aldo can both exploit

Technicalities and such but he's gonna milk that

Cerrone vs Gastelum will be interesting. Gastelum looked impressive against Hendricks
Yoel Romero returns and he may be going for the throne
Jeremy Stephens still hits like a truck at that weight but Edgar is a beast
We see how Rashad Evans does at lower weight. Moving down did good things for some fighters so we'll see but the division is packed
Any Joanna fight is
And that's not even including the main events
Please don't let there be injuries

breh,they already charging 1599 (the cheapest for 1) for vip experience and mid level seats. I had a flight reserved but i might have to cancel that shyt. i aint trying to pay 8-900 for no bleachers.


anyway, i think alvarez is a live dog. honestly, i felt this would be a easy fight for connor a month or 2 ago but i changed my opinion. at 155, i just don't see him walking over guys like he did at 145.

I wanted to go but yeah, the prices are absurd. fukk that noise.

I remember going to Strikeforce: Fedor vs Bigfoot at the Izod center, i got FLOOR seats for $100 per person

 

[LinusCaldwell]

The prices y'all saying

Y'all hear about the former wwe wrestler Ryback trying to get into MMA going the Bellator route

Damnnnnn...nobody better get injured!!!

This is why MMA gains bee and while boxing, which will ALWAYS remain, loses a few..none of that Canelo-GGG fakkitry

Compared to other big events we've had, these prices aren't that bad:

 

[The G.O.D II]

I'm just not feeling that card tbh

 

[LinusCaldwell]

That's really good, those are pretty much how I think every event price points should be

 

[aceboon]

Eddie will do him like he did Petit, take him to the ground and just lie on top of him...

I think Eddie will fight "not lose," and implement a "very safe game plan"...

McGregor is miles ahead of Pettis at managing distance and striking, Alvarez is gonna have a much more difficult time pressing him against the cage then he did against Pettis.

There's still Kovalev/Ward and GGG/Jacobs.

 

[OfTheCross]

What would you guys think of McG wins the LW belt and then loses his title defenses at FW and LW?
