Edgar got stopped in 1st round by Ortega. I reckoned Ortega was going to win it. Ortega vs. Holloway for sure.

223 predictions, boyos? I'm thinking Khabib might actually have a shot, but, then again, Ferguson might actually pull it out in the end.

I just hope it happens!

I'm thinking Khabib, but I think Ferguson is getting underrated. He most definitely has a chance.

Well, looks like it won't happen after all! Ferguson's hurt and Holloway's replacing him. That definitely changes things!

I didn't realise Holloway was ready to fight!

He is, though at this rate we may never see a Khabib/Ferguson bout. Makes me wonder if it's just a coincidence or they're both avoiding each other and making up excuses...

It is a coincidence. An annoying one at that. Dana White says he is never booking the fight again. 4 times it has been cancelled!

Conor is ready for Wrestlemania!
Real Stone Cold vs Vince feud in UFC..don’t cross the boss!!

Holloway's out and Conor pulled a dick tantrum and might be banned. UFC's a mess right now!

This card is cursed! lol

Bisping retires.

He was supposed to a few years ago. But instead he won the title, and got a couple of big money fights instead!

Anyone here catch Curtis Blayde's TKOing Overeem with that elbow? Pretty rough homecoming defeat for CM Punk, too. He probably should've stayed put dropping pipe bombs in the WWE...

UFC is now WWE ha ha ha ha!
UFC fans all pissed with planned Brock setup!
Camera got Brock perfectly because it WAS in the script!!!!!! SUCK IT UFC!!!!!!!!! Ha ha ha ha

Who can give Woodley a run for his money other than another Thompson snoozefest? Covington could barely handle Maia's standup. Woodley would eat him alive.

I agree. Unfortunately.

Maybe Till, but he needs a big fight against a legit top 10 contender.

Also, Lawler's leg was fucked up in the second round. Impressive he lasted the full fight.

Well he beat Wonderboy! I just hope he makes weight for the Woodley fight.

Think McGregor is going to knockout Khabib.

You can probably count on it, in fact. Odds are saying Khabib, but I doubt he'll get far.

Good luck tonight UFC biggest fight ever..in an arena
Rousey had fun with 70,300 today from Australia

Yeah, and McGregor's corner man gets knocked the fuck out, too! Badass!

Hoo, boy! Anyone think Khabib will seriously leave? Looks like he's got a major beef with Dana White and Co. after that McGregor fight! Anyone think he's got legit complaints here?

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/khabib-nur ... 28958.html

Fucking Ryan Bader....he was too boring and wasn't good enough for UFC's light heavyweight division and now he's likely to become the new Bellator heavyweight champion. It wasn't pretty but it was fun to watch someone utilize all the tools from amateur wrestling

Anyone here catch that quick knockout of Velasquez by Ngannou? Some comeback...

Meh, barely touched him. Cain knees gave away, which is actually the most Cain thing that could have happened.

That's what I thought too until someone just posted a clip in slow mo that clearly shows Cain's head snapping back from a punch right before his knee gave out. The punch was kind of similar to the one Henderson landed on Fedor as it was barely viewable due to the camera angle. I'm pretty sure a half uppercut by Ngannou would be enough to knock out most.

True, but Cain's facial reaction was not that of being knocked out by a punch. I'm sure it hurt! But the knees blowing out was the big reason

Yeah it was probably a combo of the 2 for sure and with Cain's scrambling ability he might have gotten out of that mess but with Ngannou standing over him 1 clean shot and it's over. Cain looked frail to me, I know it's strange to say that about a 250 pound guy but he didn't look healthy to me.

Earl

GSP expected to announce his retirement soon. What a career, if so...

I agree.

And his skin looked kind of yellowish to me which could be any number of things. I can only imagine the germs these guys and girls pick up rolling around on a mat and in MMA gyms which given the volume of people who train there are rarely 100% clean.
