[The_Renaissance]

How would you book UFC 197? Has to be realistic, let's not have Patrick Cote fighting on Fight Pass etc!

Nice card. Wasn't Stallings cut though?

 

[McGeezle]

Dustin Poirier vs. Al Iaquinta

Wow, came just to say exactly that

Andre Fili vs. Yair Rodriguez also confirmed. Probably high prelims or main card opener, depending on how much they want to hype Yair.

 

[Guile]

BJ Penn vs Dennis Siver

Not always

Yep, there have been 4 in the past. Not often but still.

Nice card. Wasn't Stallings cut though?

Dunno actually, don't remember reading it but might be?

Andre Fili vs. Yair Rodriguez also confirmed. Probably high prelims or main card opener, depending on how much they want to hype Yair.

Forgot about this, definitely upper prelims or possibly sneaking on the main agreed.
