    Honestly, what the hell is going on over there? The UFC is ass-over-teakettle these days.

    Ben Henderson not only didn't know that Eddie Alvarez was injured but was never informed that Donald Cerrone was taking his place (on two-weeks notice).

    I guess the UFC is allowed to replace an opponent without clearing it (contractually) but this is still some bullshit. Kind of like how Rory MacDonald repeatedly texted Dana White about why his title shot was pulled but didn't get a reply.

    I guess if you don't want them to say no, you just go ahead and book it, tell everyone about it, and hope for the best.

    Kind of like how signing Gina Carano was a done deal before it wasn't?

    I just get the feeling that the next person to check into rehab will be a DFW or a Fertitta.
