155 lbs.: Jared Gordon vs. Mark Madsen
135 lbs.: John Castaneda vs. Kyung Ho Kang
125 lbs.: Kevin Borjas vs. Joshua Van
145 lbs.: Dennis Buzukja vs. Jamall Emmers

Not a bad main card. Really like the main and comain, all 4 guys are so good. The hw fight should be fireworks.

Next few ppv cards should be fire. Dana announced 3 title fight upcoming. Omalley vs chito, strickland vs duplessis, and volk vs topuiria.

Also the fight night on dec 2nd is one of the most stacked i have seen. I guess dana is trying to give a frick you to bkfc mike perry vs eddie alvarez.

strickland vs duplessis, 


Dana explicitly said the Khamzat v Usman fight winner would get the next title shot at Strickland. Guess not!

For the real title in my book. It’s a joke that UFC won’t even try to unify the belts when Jones comes back.

Right move imo. Duplessis deserve it more chimaev hasnt looked that great against top competition and duplessis beat whitaker. If duplessis wins you probably get him vs izzy.

Kumshot Chimaev tore ligaments in his hand during that fight so he’ll be out for a while.

First UFC PPV in a bit to go against an LSU game that actually means something - maybe I'll just go to a sportsbook and watch both

Endeaver/TKO/Dana don't give a frick about BKFC - it's an Austin show that the arena or city probably did a site buy, so you can't just do a throwaway Apex card,

My guess is that they hope jones wins and they can try to entice him to fight one more time to “unify” the belt before he retires. I like it though much better than holding up the division waiting on stipe and jones who always have some bullshite.

Stipe should just retire if he won't fight anyone other than Jones.

As for Jones, Chael says he has no money so he has to fight (take that what it's worth).

I also think whomever wins this weekend for the HW belt may even fight again before Jones gets back. That injury will probably take 12 months to get fighter ready and get a camp in again.

It's a damn shame Francis is no longer around. Sergei vs the Ngannou would have been one of th biggest clash if heavyweight power maybe ever.

Grandpa Stipe is in it for the last paycheck which is fine. The part I don’t get is that Pav was the back up and when Jones got hurt, Stipe didn’t want to fight Pav. Why even have a backup fighter then? Then UFC won’t try to unify the belts. Seems like the fans who want to see the best fight the best have to take a back seat to the fans who’s in it for the entertainment, and glamour marketing.

Id much rather pav vs aspinall than stipe vs either. I think generally the ufc does a great job getting us the fights we want when we want them.

I was referring to Jones vs Pav/Aspinall winner as appose to Jones vs the shell of Stipe.

Feel like Juri is faster and more dynamic than Pereira, has more levels / moves / weapons in his arsenal than Pereira. Going to be something else to see these two warriors square off.
