    The UFC is looking to add Ando to this card with Mousasi and Kennedy as possible opponents. Can't see Kennedy jumping in after such a long layoff.

    Anderson/Mousasi doesn't exactly sound like fireworks...

    Arena Atletico Paranaense/Arena da Baixada/Joaquim Américo Guimarães is an open-air soccer field that holds 40,000 people in the stands plus however many thousand floor seats they configure.

    UFC looking to make this a proper stadium show in Brazil. Should be cool if it doesn't rain.

    Sounds like a fight that should have happened 6 years ago.

    They can't get a suitable opponent for Ando so he won't fight at this event. UFC 200?

    Cyborg wants to get on this card. It is in her hometown and sets up a fight at UFC 200 if she wins.

    I'd love to see her on the card too. Maybe have someone fight her at 140? then she can work her way down to 135... She's had nearly 2 years (or even longer i can't recall) to figure out a way to get down to 135 if she truly wants to fight for the UFC. Dana is not making a Women's 145lbs division any time soon... unless Rhonda and Paige Van Zant balloon up of course.

    ^ It wouldn't surprise me if Ronda is the only one of the top three or four girls that won't move up to fight her.

    Shogun vs. Corey Anderson expected to be added to this card, which is becoming a supercard of sorts

    Solid card. I really hope it doesn't get hit by injuries.

    Down for this.

    Rumour that the UFC is trying to find a fight for Cyborg, also.

    If silva loses this one, might it be time to hang em up?

    Btw, watched some old gsp fights last night, made me realize how much I actually miss watching that guy fight. I think he's the best fighter of all time.

    If Silva loses I can see the UFC giving him fights in Brazil only until he gets back on track. To be honest he could lose and come back with one flashy win and people will want to see him again.

    Exactly why I don't want GSP to come back. He isn't that guy anymore.

    Anderson Silva will get KTFO by Hall. He's too slow to avoid the power shots of Hall. He won't put Hall out, either.

    Cat Zingano vs. Cyborg Justino rumoured

    Evan Dunham vs. Leo Santos moved to UFC 199

    Silva says his bout with Hall is a go.

    I'm happy for Uriah. I'd love for him to beat the legend and get some Confidence and a push moving forward.
