Main Card

Max Holloway (c) vs. Frankie Edgar*

Cris Cyborg vs. Felicia Spencer

Geoff Neal vs. Niko Price

Olivier Aubin-Mercier vs. Arman Tsarukyan

Marc-André Barriault vs. Krzysztof Jotko

Prelims (ESPN)

Alexis Davis vs. Viviane Araújo

Hakeem Dawodu vs. Yoshinori Horie

Gavin Tucker vs. Seung Woo Choi

Alexandre Pantoja vs. Deiveson Figueiredo

Pretty terrible card except for the main event. Looking forward to the main event though.

I’ll be honest, I haven’t bought a UFC event on PPV since they started having women fight. Absolutely no reason to waste my money when I have absolutely no interest in seeing 1-2 fights on every card now.

That being said, I wish I could watch Edgar vs. Holloway. I was watching the preview on ESPN earlier and never realized how good of a dude Frankie Edgar is

Max is too long for Edgar. Unless he hasn’t got over his last fight, he should cruise.

I'm just happy they're finally fighting each other.

If Edgar loses he should drop down to 135.

This Horie dude is tough as nails.


Ref should have stepped in earlier imo.

The first 2 fights on most ppv cards are some of the most hectic. I never pay for em either tho so with you there. For me its the outrageous price they charge for every card that steers me away. Unless the card is stacked they should charge like $20 for cards like tonight. Only the most desperate fans will pay $60 for a card like tonight's where we know edgar is gonna get beat into retirement.

You are missing out. There have been some great womens fights the last few years. Amanda Nunes is one of the best fighters ever also.

I’m flipping back and forth between this and the boxing on Showtime. Gervonta Tank Davis is fighting in the main event.

Not really. The last fight I saw with two women was absolutely pathetic and one of them shouldn’t have been anywhere near a professional fight card. I get that people think they sound cultured by pretending that it’s cool to watch two women attempt to beat the shite out of each other but it’s not really my thing.

I’ve sat there and watched multiple BJJ upper belt females get completely shut down by white belt men at open mats, let’s not sit here and pretend that women’s sports are some highly entertaining endeavor across the board lol

So what you are saying is that women that want to train and compete at the highest level shouldn't because of dumbasses like you that want to try and compare them to men? If you can't appreciate the skill that fighters like Amanda Nunes, shevchenko, etc bring to the game I dont know what to tell you. You are sounding real insecure here.

Yeah it's a tough fight for sure. I think he was worried about askren getting the shot if he beat masvidal.

Big fan of Colby even though he isnt the most entertaining fighter style wise.
