Matches to make after UFC 182.

The event as a whole was eh. I don't mind that the fights went to decisions but they just weren't that entertaining.

Jon Jones vs. winner of Gustafsson/Johnson
Daniel Cormier vs. loser of Gustafsson/Johnson
Donald Cerrone vs. Khabib Nurmagemedov for #1 contendership
Myles Jury vs. Josh Thomson
Brad Tavares vs. Costas Philippou or possibly a short notice fight with Uriah Hall
Nate Marquardt vs. Rich Franklin or Cung Le (depending on how the lawsuit stuff play out probably)
Kyoji Horiguchi vs. John Moraga or Jussier Formiga
Louis Gaudinot vs. Josh Sampo
Hector Lombard vs. Rory MacDonald for #1 contendership
Josh Burkman vs. Dong Hyun Kim or Gunnar Nelson

Paul Felder vs. Beneil Dariush
Cody Garbrandt vs. Ian Entwistle
Shawn Jordan vs. Ruslan Magomedov
Evan Dunham vs. Yancy Medeiros
Omari Akhmedov vs. Dhiego Lima

Donald Cerrone vs. Khabib Nurmagemedov for #1 contendership

Oh yeah.

 

[estranged]

makes sense but cowboy won't wait till khabib heals

 

[Pointy Elbows]

I know he's coming off a loss but I would rather see Lombard vs Matt Brown.

If the eagle is to be believed, he should be ready by april/may.

Shawn Jordan vs. Ruslan Magomedov
Evan Dunham vs. Yancy Medeiros
Omari Akhmedov vs. Dhiego Lima

These are particularly good matches.

I only disagree with Hector/Rory. Rory's earned it and instead the UFC made one of the most bizarrely unwarranted rematches in history.

Not bad. I'd rather see Cormier fight the winner of Rashad vs. Glover though (Hate seeing talented guys drop 2 in a row). Cerrone vs Nurmagomedov will be godly. Khabib can take him down all he wants, in my opinion Cerrone is even more dangerous on the ground than on the feet.

 

[Johntreksmith]

I'll pass on the Gus jones fight. Guff gassed out last fight half of 3, all of 4 and 5. Throw in the fact that Jbj was fighting badly dehydrated with a flu, a fully healthy Jbj will just destroy Gus. Jbj will be charged with animal cruelty if the fight isn't stopped by the 3rd round. It will be slippery like the ice bucket incident but will blood and flesh.

pass

 

[RockyLockridge]

Corimer shouldn't get a top contender yet imo, he already got a title shot off an pretty easy streak (hendo, cummings, nelson and mir) Needs to fight a top 10 guy. before a top 5.

He should fight the Ryan bader phil/Phil Davis Loser.

And I'm sorry but marquart has gotta go.
