[Pacemaker Joe]

Thatch couldn't get a TUE for a med he's on in Pennsylvania.

Well not off, moved a few weeks to the Vegas card.

Misread the release, my bad. But yea, it's not happening next weekend. Edited the thread title.

 

[BlueMerle]

Too much bureaucracy, red tape, and regulations going on in sports today.

Get the fuck out the way and let the men compete.

And to think that people were talking earlier today about how 14 fights on a card is too long. Now we're down to 12 for the time being because of this and Moras going down (although we could have a replacement for Moras so that's not totally off).

 

[Pacemaker Joe]

It's private medical stuff we don't need to know, but I'm curious why the PSAC wouldn't let him fight with a medication that isn't banned under the WADA code.

 

[M Raid K]

THe title is misleading. The fight isn't completely off, it's moved to UFC 196.

 

[Saint mac]

This was one of the more compelling fights on the card, Thatch is never in a boring fight even if he loses.

 

[Canaduh]

curious what meds he's on, might be some cortisone type stuff. but yeah thats a wild fight actually

 

[McGeezle]

The card just got even worse, my god

Fuck man this card is BAD. Way to get that Pittsburgh market. To think I was going up until means pulled a dirty bird. Plenty of great seats still available.
