_______________________________________________

Save for the TUF Finale fights and the inevitable TUF competitor prelim or two taking up spots on the undercard, the latest to be filled is the Friday TUF Finale card the day before UFC 200 and the second of three events taking place in that 3 day span. The bout order has not yet been confirmed as always, this one was made simply for the sake of the thread. With that being said, what do you guys think of this card? If this is how the Main Card is slotted I won't be mad at it at all. The 3 fights leading into the TUF Finale fights are great matchups. I can't wait to see Doo Ho Choi back in action and Matthews vs. Ray should be a barn burner. And we can't forget about that Title Fight Main Event between two of the best SWs in the world not to mention the bad blood between the two. If I was going to rate this card, given the scaling involved and the fact that this card is taking place on the same week as two other events, it isn't bad at all for a TUF Finale. I give it a 7-7.5/10. What do you guys think?

garbage

Meh. Main card looks okay, but the main event really makes it. And Doo Ho Choi.

6/10. May still try to get tickets off a scalper anyway when I go to Vegas.

 

[SUBLIME FAN]

7/10

 

[Dead Kennedy]

Not bad. But it honestly wouldn't be much without the title fight main event. Fortunately it has the fact that it will be on the day before UFC 200. People will inevitably tune in just to get pumped up for 200. I could also see it being a better night of fights than expected, with the fighters on the TUF finale not wanting their fights over shadowed by UFC 200, and putting on some great fights. But that's just my opinion, so take it as it is.

I figure Joanna pounding out Claudia should rate a solid 10 /10. An ass kicking is on the way.

KO/TKO round 3.

 

[Ozze]

4/10.

Gray Maynard....my goodness.

How the mighty have fallen.

I'm pretty pumped for it minus the TUF fights. I haven't followed TUF so no vested interest. But I do always pull for Li Jingliang.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

Stevie Ray will destroy Jake Matthews.

 

[McgreGOATsLeft]

6/10.
War Joanna!

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Pretty meh imo. 5.5/10
Choi and the title fight are all I care about, but im a fight fan so I watch everything

I loved that huge knockout when he fought Dhiego Lima

 

[qw3rty]

Stevie Ray will destroy Jake Matthews.

hope not, I'm rooting for him
That is a really solid fight against 2 prospects

That and Choi makes the card a 7/10 IMO

 

[Large Hound 77]

I wouldn't buy it I will certainly watch it. The headliner will be a humdinger again

Don't fall for that propaganda. Zuffa targeting people of lower intelligence to make some drama. Don't fall for that shit.

They're trying to make Joanna look like heal. The editing is biased to make Joanna look like a biatch.

Which is disturbing to me. You're turning a sweet woman everybody loved into a bad replication of a female Conor, or Ronda ? Where's the logic ? I'm not following the end game here.

Joanna is obviously just trying to get in all those sound bites. But there's one thing she needs to learn.

The true greats never had to talk shit. Even as a coach on TUF. GSP never gave in to the the shit talk and drama. And I'd like Joanna to go back to doing her talking in the octagon. Leave the soap opera bullshit to the lower ranked fighters.
