Lol at the MM fight being cancelled after all the ridiculousness that led us to this point. I know ppl might scream reactionary but looking at the forecast at some of these announced fights might be time for UFC to close business
The card literally became ll5 and that's two L's
115 as in Liddell vs franklin? How so?:jbhmm:

They said TJ would get mad in practice and cheapshot people and that it's well known. Said Holdsworth got the better of TJ on the ground and he kneed Holdsworth in the back of the head which was the end of Holdsworth fighting.
OMG?! The back of the head with a damn knee. I'm thinking TJ just kept punching him during sparring or something.

Happy for RDA, glad he beat that useless chump, would be gr8 to see him against Woodley. Always good seeing Melendez overrated azz get beat. Remembers when he was beating the likes of aoki and he and his fans swore he was the best in the world :mjlol:

I don't why I have such a disdain for Brazilian Champs for some reason, but it just the fake nature of them that rub me wrong. Especially, being a professional and being a champion to know not to "overtrain" and pull out within >2 weeks of fight week. Being bytch made and refusing title rematches unless on your own term or probably trying to not get busted in PEDs( Post USADA Aldo). Constantly bytching when you fukked up (Werdrum) or when UFC didn't strip your ass of the title( Cause they couldn't afford anymore more Bad PR) when you was cleared to fight, but at a disadvantage because you had a bad weight cut that got you sick (Nunes).
Brazilians are fukking drama queens, breh. I was a huge fan of Aldo and really - I still am. I lost a ton of respect for him after Conor, though. All he did is bytch and complain about how it was a fluke and how Conor wouldn't give him a rematch. Meanwhile, this nikka wants to sit on the sidelines for a year, pull out 3 time for any minor injury, and then finally get the balls to step into the octagon when nobody cares about the fight anymore. Say what you will about Conor, but he steps up to the plate. Aldo had plenty of opportunities to make the same "history" as Mcgregor in his 10 year reign, but he never got the balls to actually go to 155. All he would do is sit and make excuses about clearing out his weightclass first. I've also never seen Aldo take a short notice fight...ever. All this shyt combined with the fact that he's probably the sorest loser I've ever seen made me see him in a whole new light. How are you going to laugh at a dude for losing a fight at 170 or in a pro boxing match when he took your belt in the most embarrassing fashion he possibly could have?

Cejudo was impressive as hell last night using the karate stance, he's gonna have to work his way back for a title shot after being rushed the first time but I want to see him fight DJ again within the next year.

Cejudo and RDA were the definite highlights of the night to me. RDA shot himself right into the title chat and Cejudo has been improving faster than anyone in the division by a large margin.
