    Chris Jericho says Conor McGregor's foray into boxing inspired him to challenge Kenny Omega in Japan.

    How would Chael Sonnen know what is in GSP's contract? Are they friends and GSP told him? Are they friends and Dana told him? Not saying Chael is wrong, but I do not see how he would know that to speak with any authority on it.

    Rogan says the opposite; that there are no provisions just unwritten expectations. GSP can just drop the belt if he wants something else like McGregor or Woodley.

    I definitely buy Rogan possibly knowing better than Sonnen from a different organization.

    The MMA Gods gave us UFC 217, and now they take back Cruz/Rivera and Edgar/Holloway.

    "If I want to fight again, it has to be against Robert Whittaker at 185 (pounds). That’s in my contract. I cannot, for example, go fight (welterweight champ) Tyron Woodley or go fight another guy.”

    Turns out Chael is in the know better than Rogan. It has to be Whittaker or nothing which is awesome.

    He's injured, though. Five months from now he might weigh 180-lbs...

    Tyron Woodley supposedly has a labrum tear and if he has surgery he'll be out for up to a year.

    Dude was claiming he had a torn labrum following the Maia fight. What has it taken him so long to get surgery?

    Right now the main event is ___ vs. ___ with the co-main being Jimmie Rivera, maybe, vs. ___.

    GDR has withdrawn with a possibly just rumoured fight with Ketlen Viera due to ongoing hand injury issues.

    I do not know how much longer she has in the UFC but her exit can't be too far ahead.

    Woodley/Diaz isn't done. The UFC is still looking at other options. According to The Nose they have renewed interest in Holly Holm vs. Cyborg.

    Yet Amanda Nunes thinks Holly Holm is next for her.

    Cat Zingano says she has signed a bout agreement but isn't saying more than that.

    Zingano hasn't fought since July of last year (losing to Nunes) and has only fought once per year since 2011.
