That's pretty poor, considering Bigfoot getting KTFO by a slingshot from Nelson is the most appealing thing on there. Thatch getting RNC'ed and Wandershe bullying a newcomer, plus the ghost of Barao against a random someone don't do it for me. Burns vs Prazeres should be fun though, and if Trinaldo doesn't play it safe that could be fun.

@chunglii With another fight or two, you think the UFC would consider signing Megan Anderson to fight Cyborg? More likely to happen in Invicta but I'd like it in the UFC.

If they do a W145 it should be Cyborg vs Megan for the title. but I doubt the UFC does a W145 anytime soon. Cyborg should be defending her belt in Invicta instead of fighting overmatched girls at 140 that aren't superfights.

Felder vs Trinaldo should be fun. Other than that, meh.
5/10

Really hope Lina somehow manages to pull off the upset and knock Cyborg out. Its a fucking joke that Cyborg spends a career ducking everyone and gets rewarded with hand picked opponents in a division that doesn't really exist and a main event.

Just makes the sport look bad.

 

[Red Ninja]

I like the card. The next Anderson/GSP is on it. I'm going to recline back and eat me a it's not delivery it's digiorno and glass of

 

[Number1StockBroker]

The 135 division is weak as hell too

Yeah but at least they have some girls with name recognition like Holm, Miesha and Nunez and lets not mention Jabba the Hut.

 

[MMA]

Hopefully Farmer Burns farms his ass, @Wadtucket style.

What does that mean? Liking him to death?

 

[JayPettryMMA]

It's amazing that a part-time UFC fighter and reigning champion in another organization is headlining a UFC card. Kudos to them for that. Should be a big finish for the Brazilian crowd, they'll love it. And they'll need to get their hopes up after watching Bigfoot sadly crumble.

But Barao should also pick up a big win for them too.

Yeah I am getting of her talking, talking, talking about girls ducking her when she knows the UFC and Dana are not going to cater to her desires. So she should man the hell up and drop down and weight and stop taking the supplements she is taking to help her with her strength/muscles. She would still be probably the strongest woman there even if she lose some muscles.

6/10

maybe a 7 if I find out that lina chick is any good

 

[Soul On Ice]

Meh/10

No idea what "The Next Anderson Silva" is doing in the co-main vs Henan

 

[USAUSA1]

Going to be the highest rated fs1 fight night of the year.

 

[Just Creed]

Hopefully Stevie Ray knocks the crap out of Patrick. The silence will be awesome.

Nothing against Patrick though. Gotta support Stevie

 

[Wadtucket]

Should be entertaining. Has potential for many finishes. Only thing that worries me is Michel taking a fat dump on Gilbert. Hopefully Farmer Burns farms his ass, @Wadtucket style.

Thatcher and Borg will blow wad coating the entirety of the canvas setting the stage for ass farmer Burns to farm and burst

 

[SirKratos]

10/10. Great card

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Id give it a 6.5
Im not really wanting to see BF fight Roy. BF has been knocked out enough already. ..and Roy has a chin of concrete. I don't see how BF doesn't get KOd here.
There are some fun fights on here...but they could have used a bigger name, and actual UFC fighters to headline the event.

 

[Thesnake101]

Main event sucks, but the rest of the card ain't that bad, aside from Barao/Nover, of course. Gillespie's fight and Felder/Massaranduba are the fights I'm looking forward to the most. 7.5/10 "It's okay".

 

[markys00]

BOOOOOOO

a real main event is needed. having cyborg main eventing is a slap in the face. she cant even fight in a proper weight class. if we get another shitty ending like her last fight, then whats the point?

judging by how fightpass is now getting one of the best fights of the card nowadays, I wouldnt be surprised if silva vs thatch main evented the free prelims. or yahya vs tanaka.. i mean, one can argue this weekends free fp prelims main event in swanson vs kawijiri is as good as the main/comain.
