Dang....UFC 219 only has 10 total fights?

[Arm Barbarian]

That's kind of a bummer. Don't most cards have at least a dozen fights?

I wonder what happened here? Injuries?

• Cristiane Justino vs. Holly Holm

• Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Edson Barboza

• Dan Hooker vs. Marc Diakiese

• Cynthia Calvillo vs. Carla Esparza

• Carlos Condit vs. Neil Magny

• Khalil Rountree vs. Michal Oleksiejczuk

• Myles Jury vs. Rick Glenn

• Marvin Vettori vs. Omari Akhmedov

• Louis Smolka vs. Matheus Nicolau Pereira

• Tim Elliott vs. Mark Delarosa

Would be 11 if Moraes actually stepped up like he said he would.

 

[executionermma]

If i remember well, Usman x Meek was transfered because Usman bitched about Meek being unranked and thought he would get Colby or something at 219, then it didn't happened and now they are fighting at UFC St Louis. Nothing clear about it.

Rivera x Lineker got canceled because Lineker had tooth infection, he already went surgery but had to pull out of the fight. Moraes asked to step in and then when Rivera accepted suddently he didnt wanted the fight anymore. Pathetic.

Abduk Hassan x Homasi was rescheduled for UFC 220, not sure why, maybe was too close of UFC 218.

 

[Ken Oath]

Barberosa vs Khalabeebee..







Well I’m kinda interested to see on Condit goes and the battle of the all natural women’s featherweights.

Yeah i agree you don't wanna be weight cutting and miss out on christmas dinner. Haha. Most people are putting on weight over christmas not cutting weight.

It's the only time of the year where i get to see most of my family also. I'm sure this applies to some fighters too.

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

They could have just had Cowboy fill in at last moment.

Didn't Rivera also turn down Dodson? Blame is on both sides.

 

[ApplesVild]

Yeah they forgot to add a main and co-main event..

[Toxxus]

I'm really torn on this card.

I almost never skip a PPV unless it's a MMJ bum fight headliner.

Still FIVE fights for the main card feels really light. Especially since the main event is pretty meh.
