    Who the hell is David Branch? Why would the UFC not wait for the winner of tonight's Weidman fight and pair Luke with that?

    I think Weidman beats Rockhold in a rematch. I don't see him fighting stupid anymore.

    Weidman called Bisping a cross eyed bitch on twitter. Bisping has been gotten too. Fast track to title shot plan engaged.

    With that said, Weidman WRECKS Bisping.

    Jose Aldo wants to fight in November. There are at least three, maybe four cards that month. MSG is first, then three fight nights, first unannounced, second in Sydney, third in Shanghai. I could see him in the main event of one of those three. Aldo/Rodriguez would be great.

    Anthony Johnson and Urijah Faber are both waiting by the phone hoping that the UFC offers them each a big money fight.

    Johnson I understand but Faber I don't. Dude seems to have enough going on right now.

    The first batch of UFC 216 bouts are official and ready to take place at T-Mobile Arena on Oct. 7, with contenders and hot prospects from heavyweight to flyweight squaring off in Las Vegas this fall.

    In heavyweight action, knockout artist Walt Harris puts his two-fight winning streak on the line as he seeks another early finish against British banger Mark "The Hand of" Godbeer.

    Fresh from wins over Caio Magalhaes and Elias Theodorou, Brad Tavares hopes a win over No. 12-ranked Thales Leites in October will earn him a place in the top 15.

    The lightweight division will be represented on the UFC 216 card, with No. 14-ranked Evan Dunham getting a home game in Vegas against No. 12-ranked Beneil Dariush, rising star Lando Vannata taking on Abel Trujillo, and veterans Will Brooks and Nik Lentz battling it out in the Octagon.

    Plus, a pair of flyweight bouts will see No. 10-ranked John Moraga face No. 15-ranked Magomed Bibulatov, while up and comers Matt Schnell and Marco Beltran face off.




    This PPV is still looking for a main event. The Miocic/Velasquez rumour that was squashed a week ago was the proposed headliner.

    Based on the way they were pushing Calvillo I could see the UFC rushing her into a title fight against Jędrzejczyk to headline this show. Rose Namajunas is also a possibility.

    Not sure about the status of the Holloway/Edgar fight but that'd be a quick turnaround for both.

    How legit is this Brock Lesnar / Jon Jones shit. Isn't Lesnar still suspended and wouldn't he have to enter the 6 month testing pool? I can't see him being granted an exemption again...

    UFC whatever number @ MSG in November looks like its lining up to be Bisping / GSP for sure. JJ / Gusto? Or will they save JJ for the New Year's card? I imagine Weidman will be back in November for another fight in his home

    Yeah he can't fight this year at least.
    They treat these MSG shows like their Wrestlemania. I think Bisping/GSP and JJ/Gus both being on it sounds likely with whatever they come up with for Weidman there too.

    Chael Sonnen thinks he's fighting Chuck Liddell next. Boy oh boy three five-minute rounds of Sonnen laying on Liddell what a fun fight.

    Frank Mir is trying to sign with Bellator to fight Fedor.
