    I'd like to see Gustafsson fight on this card. If he wins and Jones loses it sets up a rematch people want to see.

    Roy Nelson must have renewed his contract with the UFC. Wasn't his last fight the end of his contract? If so, I'm surprised DFW wants him back.

    Aguilar vs. Lima added

    Apparently Lima isn't getting charged for her drunken escapades

    The Nelson/Lewis fight apparently isn't happening. No word on if negotiations with Nelson have stalled out. He's lost 5-of-7 and not in a great position to demand a lot of money.

    Herb Dean was assigned to the main event of this card but DC is protesting, saying Dean allowed Jones to stall in the fifth round of their previous fight. He wants a different referee.

    Not an April Fools, but DC is officially out of the fight.

    Jones drop off the card and Try to get on 200? Or will he show the UFC some good faith and stay on the card.

    Rumble supposedly has been offered the fight.

    Jones posted a video on Instagram stating he would take a short notice fight at either HW or LHW

    Helwani reporting Johnson is leaning towards not accepting the fight.

    Wasn't there an article a couple days ago saying rumble was staying in shape just in case dc or Jones were out?

    Disappointing if rumble really declines.

    Helwani making it sound like osp and Rashad are being discussed.

    Rumble turning it down is very interesting.

    Rashad would get wrecked by Jones. But they can play up the history they have. While still protecting Jones because he would be heavily favored.

    I still think Rumble will buckle and take it.
