Rematch of a non-title late replacement fight in a weight class where neither of the fighters normally competes

WMMA title fight (actually made so Holly can't recapture the title before Ronda returns)

Interim title fight in a weight class where the champ is healthy and fighting on the very same card (and one of the fighters actually really deserves a title shot while the other one deserves a rematch)

decent HW fight

funny fight between two dudes who miss weight on the regular, both coming off of losses

I, for one, think 200 lags far behind UFC 100 when the two biggest draws defended their titles.

So.. Is Aldo-Edgar co-main? Or are they still waiting to announce that? Was looking forward to seeing Lawler on there.
 
It's shameful the champion is fighting on the same card as an interim title in his division.
 
I am not, even remotely. I totally get why they're doing it out a financial point of view, gotta get that win back for their golden boy, but I'm definitely not blown away by any stretch of the imagination.
 
I am not a fan of immediate rematches unless it is after a fight like Shogun/Machida 1. The UFC 200 main event is not only an immediate rematch, it is a completely irrelevant fight with both fighters fighting outside their divisions. This is a disappointing main event to me.

Aldo/Edgar for interim title is also disappointing. Edgar should be fighting Conor.

It can still be saved by adding one more huge fight: GSP/Lawler (preferably) or Jones/Cormier and having either Tate/Nunes or Aldo/Edgar main event the FS1 prelims.

co-main will be CM Punk vs Mickey Gall for the interim WW championship
 
Helax guys, the co-main is still not announced.
 
200 also had Hendo/Bisping which was supposed to be a title eliminator and the TUF coaches fight before there were a million TUFs. And the debut of Sexyama! So yea 100 was a way better card on paper and no I can't say I'm exactly "blown away" by this card but who knows they have the potential to be great fights and hopefully it ends up being a classic event. Mainly hoping Nate whoops that ass though lmao.
 
Its a good card, not great.

More its just a sad card!

This rematch really does reduce my hopes for the UFC continuing as a sport as opposed to evolving into a reality TV show.
 
Very solid card. That fake RDA vs Khabib UFC 200 poster pushed me over to blown away, alas twas not true.

Forger UFC 100, UFC 200 lags behind the original Ferguson Khabib Fox card before Cucuy got injured. I was more interested in that fight alone than the UFC 200 with two pointless rematches, WMMA fight and shot to pieces Cain fighting that bum Browne, if that fight happens at all. I mean if Cain is at least somewhat like his former self he smashes Browne in a one-sided affair and if he's not we'll see a horrible fight, who wants to watch this? UFC on Fox also has Rashad, Machida, Hendo..

You mean that card headlined by the 3-1 pro wrestler? Conor clearly has Brock beat as far as accomplishments. Not to mention that like Conor, he was fighting a guy that finished him.

Take off those rose-colored glasses. UFC 100 was headlined by a freak show fight.
 
Not yet but there's still time for something epic to be announced (not that I trust uncle Dana).

I largely agree but have to disagree on one point: I wanna see Cain come back in his old form and lay the beating of the century on Browne, Bigfoot 2 style.

(Also, I'm not too excited for the "oldies but goldies" selection in Shogun, Hendo etc)
