Build The Card: UFC 214 Cormier vs. Jones II

[qw3rty]

Shit, I just remembered Manuwa was targeted for this event just hasn't had an opponent announced yet. I think that Shogun match up you have there is very likely. Nice..

If Manuwa is not fighting Shogun, next guy on the rankings who hasn't fought him recently or is not scheduled is Cummins
They are in a really bad position if Shogun refuses that fight. The next guy (much more intriguing fight but a little early IMO) is Tyson Pedro

I hope Shogun accepts the fight. I think its a good matchup although I think Jimi likely KOs him. Tyson Pedro is the lone bright spot as far as prospects go in the LHW division. I hope he doesn't get something like this. He's only had 6 pro fights. He needs to be brought along much slower. He needs 4-5 fights outside the top 15 before he gets rushed into ranked competition. That's highly unlikely though with how shallow LHW is.

Australia may be a bright market in the coming future for the UFC with Robert Whittaker potentially holding a belt in the coming months and if Pedro develops nicely.

That's a hell of a card!

 

[Typrune Goatley]

That's a hell of a card!

Thanks man. It's a little unrealistic but might as well aim high? I think Struve would be a good replacement for Cain in case Cain gets injured. Struve vs Francis is still a good fight and good test to see where Francis is at.

Maybe not, but we can expect a lot of Cali based fighters on a card in Anaheim. Maybe even Cyborg if she gets her shit sorted out since her camp is based out of LA.

We've finally got the confirmation that Cormier vs. Jones II will be the headliner for UFC 214 despite Dana White saying Jon Jones wouldn't be in a headlining fight upon his return to the UFC. I'm thinking the UFC looks to go big with this event and stack it around the return of one of their bigger stars in one of the best story lines they've had in the organization. I'm looking forward to this one.

Mousasi Rockhold won't be a prelude to swing fight....reverse cruz-Dodson and Gegard Luke and your in business and a solid main card at that
