Chad Mendes removed from 157

I would watch Mendes v Guida, if they didn't make it a wrestling match.

Guida has about one more chance with me. That Guida v Maynard fight was silly.
 
Lamas turned it down, Lentz and Guida would probably turn it down due to needing time to weight cut, Zombie is out til July and Brown went on a boating trip with Paul Taylor, Brian Bowles and James Vick.


Wouldn't of been opposed to seeing Nam Fran take the fight but I know he's TAM as well.

well then. I don't blame either party. not the UFC or the fighters.

In the end it sucks for Mendes.
 
they couldn't find an overmatched opponent like cody mckenzie or yaotzen meza to fight him? weird.
 
A bad card got worse!

Not a bad card at all...

Rousey (SF crossover debut)
Machida
Hendo
Faber
Koscheck
Lawler (SF crossover debut)

Not the best in recent times, but certainly not very bad either.
 
I don't understand why people are bitching about this card. There are some pretty good matchups

People were asking what happened to Bowles. Now we know. Bowles probably broke his wrist fishing.
 
Time for the karma police to arrest Clay Guida and sentence him to a 15 minute beatdown by $$$ Mendes.
 
You're simply not going to see anyone in the division raising their hand to offer their services to fight Mendes.
 
many of Mendes' opponents have been getting injured lately and many of them have been scrubs that he knocks out. Plug in another shitty fighter and Mendes is gonna have a 10 fight win streak before you know it.

Wouldn't be that much of a beat down. Just kinda boring, really.

Who am I kidding...it'd be really boring.

Not only that but I'm sure there's about 5 other guys who are Armenian fighters and have Manny Gamburyan's same fighting style down to a tee who might even look just like him. That's how widespread MMA is now today and easy it is to find fighters to fight. There's no excuse for this that I could think of other then Joe Silva being too busy to find a replacement or Chad Mendes not wanting to fight another bum or somebody not on his level at least.

I didn't know Mike Brown kicked it with Brian Bowles. Kinda interesting.

It wouldn't be an epic beatdown but Chad could smash him on the feet and repeatedly stuff Guida's shots like Gil did. Mendes' boxing has improved a lot since his early WEC days and his wrestling is second to none. Those are the kind of fighters that fuck Clay up (Diego, Gil, etc.). The only reason Maynard didn't smash him was because he sprinted around the octagon and Maynard is more plodding in the standup. Mendes is quicker and would whoop him pretty bad IMO.
 
I kinda figured they'd just give him another squash match to keep him busy and build hype. Oh well
 
Mendes vs Guida of Hioki sometime in the near future works for me. Dennis Siver would also be a good opponent once he recovers. So many great match ups at 145.
 
I think it's time to remove Manny from the UFC roster. Cut him, let him go. He's getting injured way too often these past couple of years. SO much in fact that it's derailed any momentum the guy ever gains and more importantly, it hurts his opponents, the fans, and the UFC when a fight is cancelled because of it. He's not reliable anymore, time to let this fish go back into the small ponds. He's not fit to handle the oceans of the UFC.
