UFC 206 in Toronto.something something something GSP
something something something GSP
Georges won't be at MSG. He is in the USADA testing pool but has to subject himself to 4 months of testing to be eligible. That means 206 in Toronto if he returns, not 205.GSP and Conor hold all the cards
I expect we'll see a bunch of fights announced in the next two weeks
But yeah it feels a little weird to have no card structure at all
I'm expecting it to look like
McGregor/Alvarez
GSP/Woodley or Maia
Kennedy/Rashad Evans
Cerrone/Lawler
and maybe a womans fight to headline the TV card
If no McGregor or GSP we'll get the LHW title fight
205:
Conor vs Aldo 2/Alvarez
DC vs Rumble 2
JJ vs KK (Nunes vs someone @ 204, there won't be free space on 205 or 206 card for her. Or JJ vs KK will be on Poland FN card, then Nunes can fight at 205)
Weidman/Romero
Rockhold/Silva
Edgar/Bermudez
Swanson/DHC
206:
Tyron vs GSP
Cruz vs TJ 2/Cody
8 man grandprix or nothing!They are trying to set up that MW 4-man contender fight and McWWE against Alvarez
Problem is all the fighters want million dollar paychecks now and they only wanna throw 5 digits at them
well where all those defenses will be then?3 Title fights? nah I don't see UFC doing it again, it was a 200 special's case
EDIT: Also LOL at that hidden part of third line
well where all those defenses will be then?
DC, Cruz, Tyron, Nunes, McGregor, JJ, Alvarez are free and ready for 205 card
yea i think the less important fighters are getting held up by the more important fighters - lots of people unsigned and its prob because the big dogs are negotiating hard, holding out, doing the typical thing they need to do to squeeze some more cash out of the ufcGSP and Conor hold all the cards

Dana has been talking about Rumble vs Boneless Jones, he seems dead set on it. And Rockhold is talking about retirement. If he does fight again doubtful it'll be at 205. Plus fuck that fight for Silva lol.205:

UFC isn't treating it like anything important. I'm afraid the NY fans are gonna get hosed.73 more days for me to figure out why fighting in NY is supposed to be important.
