Luke Rockhold (c) vs. Michael Bisping

Two undeserving title shots on one card.

quote:

Max Holloway vs. Ricardo Lamas


Should be a good fight

quote:

Dan Henderson vs. Hector Lombard


Old arse Henderson versus possibly steroid-free Lombard who just got his arse beat by Neil Magny. This should not be on a PPV card.

quote:

Dustin Poirier vs. Bobby Green


Good fight on paper

quote:

Brian Ortega vs. Clay Guida


Using Guida as a resume builder for Ortega?

quote:

Beneil Dariush vs. James Vick


This fight should probably headline the preliminary card.

quote:

Cole Miller vs. Alex Caceres


Bruce Leeroy really needs a quality win to deserve a roster spot.

Solid card. Really looking forward to Hollaway and Lamas.

You're rooting for Hendo, or you think he will win?

I expect Rockhold to maul Bisping but it's ridiculous to say he doesn't deserve a shot.

Agree, and Luke is a huge favorite. Gives me a strange feeling that an upset will happen, even though I don't see how.

hard to root against anyone in the main events. I just hope to see some good fights.

Got a sneaky feeling that Faber clips Cruz and it's a quick stoppage.

It's still not too late for Cruz to injure himself before the fight.

I used to not like cruz, but ever since the time leading up to the dillashaw fight, hearing interviews and embedded videos, I have gained respect for the way he approaches fighting.

I kind of agree with Bisping being undeserving. Bisping was just the only top guy available after the Weidman injury. But the only bantamweight who has beaten Faber in the UFC other than Cruz is Barao, and he has moved up to FW. Since his first loss to Cruz, he has beaten 8 of the 9 bantamweight fighters that he has faced. I'd say that was pretty deserving.

Cruz will enter the cage and tear his acl before the fight starts

Holloway vs Lamas is very interesting, I think Lamas wins.

show has to go on. bisping is the only guy in the top 10 outside of weidman and souza that deserves a shot.



at bantamweight they have to keep the options open for future fights. I think faber is the right fight. if he wins then you get dillashaw vs faber which is a good storyline. if cruz wins then dillashaw gets the rematch, assuming he beats assuncao.

I'm getting a little bored with them but I do like seeing how they spend their money.
