    Cowboy is being considered for the fight. He wants assurance from the UFC that he'll still get to fight Cote, though.

    BJ Penn has been cleared in his sexual assault investigation.

    I don't know if that is official but it sounds like that will be the case.

    Khabib tweeted a picture of his contract to fight Cerrone, signed.

    Cerrone says he signed his as well.

    So, not sure what is up. Sounds like the fight is a go.

    Khabib is fighting a UFC newcomer. Pretty legit prospect according to Helwani. I'm too lazy to look up his name again.

    I'm glad they are still letting Khabib fight. With his injury history lately, can't risk even a couple more weeks for that guy.

    Perhaps he immediately gets rda next with an impressive win and leapfrog El cucuy? Seems like rda wants that fight

    Both the prelims and the main card will be on FOX so for the first time Fight Pass will have five fights including Dodson vs. Gamburyan.

    Rumor going around that Hendo will be fighting Lombard.

    If this is true, get the medics ready. Hendo is going out cold for the first time.

    Khabib looked dominate. Horcher looked badly out of place. But, Khabib is one of the best in the world.

    Namajunas and Torres was a good fight. I was rooting for Torres most of the fight. Love the flurries she throws at opponents. What's next for Namajunas? Title shot? Esparza?

    Rashad looked like he was just going through the motions going to the ring
    He doesn't have that drive or invincibility aura he had on his way to winning the title. No idea why he continues to try to box guys and no longer uses his wrestling. Rashad made Phil Davis, a decorated wrestler look mediocre. Why not use one of your best skills? He looks pretty much done to me.

    Nice win for glover. Liked the rumble callout. I think rumble would beat him, but two strong sluggers swinging away at each other sounds fun.
