Nate Diaz offered to fight Pettis to save the PPV, and the UFC seriously still considered it as late as this morning before ultimately deciding to just downgrade to free TV.

Other people are talking about Jon Jones vs Miocic for the real (not interim) HW title, but that was never a serious consideration for obvious reasons.

Can you imagine if the president or CEO of the NFL or MLB did this?

Jose Aldo released a statement saying he will not accept any fight other than a title shot or a rematch with Conor (if for some reason he's no longer the champ). He'll sit out and wait over a year if he has to.

That carries about 0 weight with the UFC.

The card in 2 weeks is now a UFC Fight Night. UFC 197 is now renumbered to UFC 196. Presumably they are going to add another PPV before July to keep that card as UFC 200

Unfortunately for him, they don't give a shit.

Awesome card tonight on Fox, after Sage smashes this can, the last 3 fights are all very good.

Fuck Aldo. Maybe he should have lasted more tan 13 seconds in the first fight.

BREAKING: Karate Fighter has problems with grappling.

He's young, he'll need to find a good bjj gym.

and, Rumble keeps on smashing. He's getting close to earning another title shot
[Reply]

He could be a player in 3 different divisions.

Lol Sage quick tapping to a arm triangle from half guard...what a clown. Another UFC hype train derailed.

Good, easy win for Rumble...man really want to see him and Bones fight. I think that'd be a super interesting fight.

If you are on twitter, @UFCFIGHTERSINFO is worth following. Its a bot account that periodically checks the UFC roster and immediately notifies followers when it detects that someone is signed or cut.

Here's the numbers for the current roster, which shows how shallow fly/HW/LHW and the women's divisions are, and that LW and WW are the shark tanks:

The number of UFC fighters
Welter 111
Light 109
Feather 71
Bantam 62
Middle 59
Light Heavy 39
Heavy 38
Fly 34

They need to cut the Men's flyweight division.

Do it now.

Disagree. If Mighty Mouse did not exist, I might agree with it, but as long as he's there, he needs to be supported and appreciated.
