Excited about an upcoming fight? Want to make predictions, or just give people a heads-up that there are some fights on? We can do it here.

(Also a good place to complain, dicuss, and agrue about the outcomes)

Nope the fight is going ahead....30% purse fine goes to TWood.

How the hell are they letting this go on?!?

Does a guy not know he is over heading in? Not very professional.

I'm assuming that Woodley received assurances from Dana and the Fertittas that they would take care of him in the future if he lost. Woodley had a lot of leverage. He's got every right to decline the fight, and he knows the UFC badly wants it to continue.

**alnorth** · 01-30-2015, 10:38 PM

well, looks like I might watch a boxing match for the first time in 17 years.

Media reporting tonight that Mayweather-Pacquiao is pretty much a done deal.

Apparently Gastelum was having a very rough cut. It was going to be close but he was on the way to making weight, but he collapsed Friday morning and had to go to the hospital where they rehydrated him. So, thats why he was 10 over. Gastelum's coach says he probably shouldn't be fighting, but its up to Gastelum and he wants to fight.

Dana White just announced that both Gastelum and Lineker will have to move up a division. Gastelum is going to be a middleweight from now on.

The UFC tried to set up an interim middleweight title fight between Belfort and Machida for 184, but Belfort refused, saying he's been training to face a wrestler, and a southpaw karate fighter is too different with one month notice.

Reportedly Belfort and his coaches told the UFC that Romero, Souza, Rockhold, or Munoz would all be acceptable substitutes.

This is a bad look for Gastellum. He was never exactly shredded at 170, he will be a very small 185er

I just tried about 25 different streams from 5 different sites, every one shit. Its not my internet either.

Does it make me sexist if I have absolutely zero interest in watching two chicks fight?

I'm with you, couldnt care less.

**alnorth** · 01-31-2015, 10:17 PM

Huh, a standing TKO. Never saw that before, but I gotta agree with the ref, standing or not, Lauzon was done.

Yeah, it probably does make you sexist, in all honesty. Either that, or you are a super-casual MMA fan.

OK, I think we can all agree that a welterweight, a Jon Jones, or heavyweight title fight are all more compelling, but setting all that aside, Rousey vs Cat is very interesting, and I'd rather see that than tiny men. (flyweights)

Who cares if they have small boobs under a sports bra, Rousey's Judo throws are crazy-good.

**alnorth** · 01-31-2015, 10:46 PM

I think Gastelum won, but not sure. He's gonna get straight murdered in middleweight.

KC native · 01-31-2015, 10:54 PM

This has been a great card so far. A submission, standing ko, a 10lb weight differential, and now nick and Anderson.

I thought Woodley won. It was a center 9f the ring control or clean strikes type of decision.
