Charles vs Volk would be my #1 choice. Colby vs Poirier, Charles vs Colby, or Volk vs Poirier would draw up some big interest as well. Also throw Bo Nickal on the card against a REAL name.

Charles/Volk & Nickal/Weidman, along with the Aldo, Aljo, & Holland fights, would offset all of the WMMA imo.

Pennington vs Pena
Charles vs Volk (5-rounds)
Aljo vs Evloev
Aldo vs Bautista
Nickal vs Weidman

Wouldn't be the worst ppv of the year (Kayla headlines prelims).

Any other plausible ideas that do not include another title fight?
 
I think Leon has a back issue, or something like that. Either way he's never been known for being active so I highly doubt he's an option. Plus this fight has staring-contest written all over it :(
I didn't know that, thought he was just "tired" because of the time schedule. MVP vs Wonderboy then.

That is a reasonable and realistic card.

It'd never happen though.
 
Poatan vs Ank as the main event & Oliveria vs Colby & 307 becomes a 10/10.

leon has a depression issue after his last one

PEREIRA vs. CHIMAEV

What's stopping them from adding Pereira vs Ankalaev? Seems like one of the only likely title fights that could be made for October.
 
Man, even with a great undercard Pennington vs. Pena would be a wet fart of a main event that would dampen the whole thing. You have to have a strong marquee fight and that ain’t it.
 
Yes keep allowing colby to not fight welterweight contenders
