Rate The Card: UFC 266

It’s ok .... the title fights both suck
.....Ortega getting an undeserved shot because he has pretty eyes ffs ( yawn )
 
All the newish fans have these ridiculous expectations. Not every card can be the greatest ever, obviously it's a phenomenal card if it stays together, especially with the addition of Hooker vs Nasrat (is that official?). I never put a lot of stock in any card until the day of though as they can fall apart, but on paper it's a great card.
Yeah it was announced today
 
Anyone else think Marlon has no chance vs Merab? The contrast in their level of cardio is ridiculous, unless Marlon gets the finish there's no chance he gets the decision imo.

Yet another boring win for Merab, the man that can wrestle anyone, but grapple no one.
 
At least some interest in almost every fight on the card. 8/10, will definitely be watching.
 
So pumped for Volk and Ortega. I rewatched Ortega Holloway again recently and god damn Ortega was landing some really hard shots on Holloway. Holloway just ate everything he threw and comeback from pure toughness which surprised me I didn't expect Ortega to be able to land that much on him. These three guys have me really excited for that division for sure. I'm really curious to see what's gonna happen with Volk and Ortega and then really curious to see which one of them will fight holloway next. Also of course Diaz Lawler 2 is gonna have me pounding beers and shouting haha.
 
(Official bout order TBD)

Alexander Volkanovski vs Brian Ortega
Valentina Shevchenko vs Lauren Murphy
Nick Diaz vs Robbie Lawler 2
Curtis Blaydes vs Jairzinho Rozenstruik
Dan Hooker vs Nasrat Haqparast

Marlon Moraes vs Merab Dvalishivili
Jessica Andrade vs Cynthia Calvillo
Shamil Abdurakhimov vs Chris Daukaus

Jalin Turner vs Uros Medic

Matthew Semelsberger vs Martin Sano Jr

*I heard that Valiev/Simon isn't a done deal, especially for this card. We'll see.

Still a very solid card, I'll give it an 8.0 for depth, high level talent, & name recognition after the early prelims.
It makes me cry when I see such card getting 8.0

I recall the glory days where free cards would be a lot more stacked than this and we would complain...wouldn't give it a 6.
 
I'm pretty up on the card. Some very solid scraps.

Yes the days of Jason McDonald & Sam Stout littering maincards. Those were the glory days. Tim Sylvia & Hermes Franca would kill these unskilled "fighters" of today.
 
I swear to God if they put that female fight above Lawler/diaz 2 I'll have an aneurysm

who's talking about the UFC? ;)
 
Volk vs Ortega one of the most anticipated fights of the year for my money.
