Please keep in mind that the bout order for this card is not complete. The one above is purely for the sake of the thread. With that being said, what do you guys think of UFC on FOX 29? Damn good Main Card. Love Gaethje vs. Poirier and Condit vs. Brown. Two awesome fights that will undoubtedly carry the card. A few good scraps on the prelims. I like Boetsch/Carlos Jr & Alhassan vs. Salikhov quite a bit. Not the most stacked prelims of all time but we should get a solid night out of this slate of fights. The way FOX cards have gone as of late, I'm more than happy with this one. If I had to rate it, it's an 8/10 and that's mainly based off of the Main and Co-Main fights.

What do you guys think?
 
For a Fox card it's dope.

I just hope for Carlos' sake, Brown doesn't picture Snoop's stupid face on Condit's head.
 
Main card is 3 for 4, so better than recent standards
 
The main card is a solid 8/10.

Prelims are a solid 5/10. I see a lot of decisions but atleast Al Razak will give us a KO.

FP Prelims are 6/10. Sanders/Williams is gonna be fantastic.
 
Main card is 3 for 4,

Michelle against almost anyone else would be better than Courtney Casey. She's a terrible pointfighter. She should never be higher than fight pass prelims. <{1-8}>
 
The main is guaranteed fireworks,

Boetsch vs Shoeface should be wild too.

Some names I don't really recognize, but overall seems fun for a freebie.

7.5 / 10
 
I mean for a free card it's pretty good. I'm not really digging the way things are going these days, the list of skilled and well-backed fighters has been truncated considerably. We can thank Dana for that. I like Condit. Some wildcards in there so it could be fun.
 
Hmm if we're just conparing it with recent ppv cards than this is a really solid card lol. A befter card than UFC 222 and arguably better than 221. 220 wasn't that great either even though it had 2 title fights.
 
The UFC on FOX cards are getting watered down. I would rate it as 6 out of 10.

I like Casey. Not interested in the Tavares fight
 
7/10 on paper. Might be a bit generous. I'm looking forward to it nonetheless.

Tavares is boring as fuck. He has obvious power in his hands. He's rocked his opponent the majority of his wins, good striker. I don't think I've ever seen him capitalize on a rocked opponent. The most frustrating thing to watch.

You gotta admit he's got a hot bod though.

Admit it.
 
Another good question would be "how many PPVs out of 10 are better than this?", in the current climate of course.

I give it an 8/10, for a free card. And I say it's better than 5 out of 10 PPVs.

I have always wanted to see Brown vs Condit. 5 years late from when it was supposed to happen but thats a dream fight for me dammit.

8/10 just for that. Also like the Main event and k. hottie fight.
