The Nurmagomedov's fight is off. Santos withdrew
That's the 36th UFC fight for Dos Anjos, 30th fight in the UFC for Holloway

Wow. I know 11 fighters on the card and really like many of them. This should be great.


Btw, is Huggy Bear fighting? Thought he pulled?
Edit: RDA is such a bad motherfucker. Endless balls. Otherwise he'd make BW.
And no wmma! I'm gonna watch an entire card for the first time in years. Amazing.
Or not at all, as I'll hopefully be way too busy for the best looking card in a long time.

 

[AmonTobin]

When Max connects on Ilia:

 

[Oscar Madison]

UFC should publish daily Khamzat proof of life, with their videos.

 

[TadDunbar]

Said Nurmagomedovs opponent pulled out

 

[TITS]

I was originally all in on Holloway getting his belt back, but Ilia's got his jimmies so rustled that now I think he puts a one-sided beating on Max (kind of like Volk 3).

I will never not back Iggy. Hope he takes Lerone's donut.

 

[The_Renaissance]

3pm prelims?

7pm main card?

Stacked fucking card?


Count me fucking IN, start to finish!

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

If Topuria loses, know that I will be spamming his lowlight mixed with this video
