As of now, UFC on FOX 24 Kansas City has 6 official fights, the only one of note that will likely be on the Main Card is Michelle Waterson vs. Rose Namajunas, the rest I believe we can assume are prelim fights. What is a good 4 fight Main Card you can come up with for UFC on FOX Kansas City, the next Big FOX card to be announced for this year's schedule.

It was originally announced that Renan Barao vs. Doo Ho Choi would serve as the Main Event for Kansas City, but after Doo Ho Choi immediately pulled out, the UFC made it unclear whether Renan Barao would remain on the card. These are the fights that have been made official for UFC on FOX 24:

Michelle Waterson vs. Rose Namajunas
Tim Elliot vs. Louis Smolka
Devin Clark vs. James Collier
Anthony Smith vs. Andrew Sanchez
Nathan Coy vs. Zak Cummings
Ashlee Evans-Smith vs. Ketlen Vieira


Here's my mock card for UFC on FOX 24:

Yair Rodriguez vs. "The Korean Zombie" Chan Sung Jung
Eddie Alvarez vs. Michael Chiesa
Michelle Waterson vs. Rose Namajunas
Andre Fili vs. Jason Knight

Curtis Blaydes vs. Alexander Volkov
Mike Perry vs. Jordan Mein
Santiago Ponzinibbio vs. Ryan LaFlare
Tim Elliot vs. Louis Smolka
Andrew Sanchez vs. Zak Cummings
Ashlee Evans-Smith vs. Ketlen Vieira

Nathan Coy vs. Zak Cummings
Devin Clark vs. James Collier
__________________________________________

The way Big FOX cards are formatted, they usually have a good fight as the "Prelim Main Event" leading into the Main Card and the Prelims are usually 6 fights, a good hour longer than the Main Card. I debated having Blaydes/Volkov opening the Main Card but I believe the Fili/Knight fight is interchangeable with it and both would be good to close out prelims OR open a Main Card, barn burner fights.

What do you guys think of this card and what would you have for your own?
 
give us Jeremy Stephens vs Korean Zombie for a main event. Yair can fight Bektic/Elkins winner or Bermudez
 
Travis Kelce vs Eric Berry
Alex Smith vs Andy Reid
Jeremy Maclin vs Jamaal Charles

..?

I liked the originally rumored Stephens vs. Melendez fight better. That may still go on this card although I feel if it was going to be, it would already have been announced when the rumors broke. Maybe they throw it on Dallas.
 
Too many fun fights on your card to be real TS.
 
Rooting for reem and hope he fails his drug test too lol
 
Tim Elliot vs Smolka is probably the prelim main event or main card starter, since Tim fought for the title and has hype.
 
Mein vs Perry, this fight seems like a lot of fun.

Yeah, no way in HELL the new WME/IMG Golden Girl Michelle Waterson and the previous "Next Ronda" (Dana's words) Rose Namajunas don't headline this card.

No WAY Choi, a non English speaker who just got his ass KICKED and deflated Barao, neither in the top 10, were going to headline over those women.

As for the rest of the card. Who cares.

It's all about this lady now:

The sooner you all embrace this fact, the better your life will be.

But.. all those things are true. Barao/Choi was the OFFICIAL Main Event when this card was announced. Waterson/Rose is still on the card and it isn't like they shifted it to Main Event. Its still just a feature fight. So unless they can't find another Main Event everything you said won't ever happen is actually happening.

Nope.

That's what I thought.

I couldn't see Rodriguez vs KZ headlining over Alvarez vs Chiesa

I could. The UFC seems dedicated to marketing Yair, he's headlined his last two fights, even when he was fighting Alex Caceres, he was the Main Event. KZ's last two fights have been Main Events, obviously his title fight, and then his first return fight back was also Main Event. Alvarez vs. Chiesa would be a good Main Event too but Chiesa is relatively unknown despite being ranked in the top 10 and Alvarez is coming off of his lopsided title loss, although he's a bit more known thanks to the big stage in his last fight.

Either way, I think it's realistic to take Yair/Zombie as your headliner but I wouldn't be shocked to see either fight pegged as Main Event. What's your card for FOX 24, I'd like to see it.

Fair enough if that's what you think. I really couldn't see it though

I a thread yesterday posting my fantasy cards for all up and coming announced shows. I gotta a feeling Barao/Rodriguez headlines the Kansas card, since Barao was already slated to fight Choi in the main event, but was pulled because he wouldn't be ready to fight again by then. I'm sure Yair is ready to go

Nice cards man, I like a lot of those fights! I'm gonna need to catch up to you and mock up a few of these upcoming cards. Are all these dates confirmed?

Waterson vs. Namajunas is the headliner.

Here is a screenshot from the FOX Broadcast:

It shows that the card starts at 8pm and is on big FOX.

Those cards only have 4 fights.

It shows those 4 fights, the headliner of which is.... Rose vs. Michelle.

It isn't the headliner as of now. You can check this on any website. It is slated at the top because that's the highest ranked fight they have announced so far. There isn't a Main Event yet.
