UFC 201 fights to add?
- Thread starter greerbh
- Start date
They are headlining an event in Germany on Sept. 3
201 isn't getting anything big added, they know the event isn't gonna be a huge draw
I expect them to build a bigger show around Conor vs Nate to help make it even bigger. 201 is a write off for zuffa
202 and 205 are the big shows likely to get stacked cards

This is what I am afraid of. Cyborg would definitely help the PPV portion of the lineup.
you can usually tell just by the main and co main if zuffa is stacking a card. Mighty vs reis and Woodley in a main event isn't a priority card for zuffa. Just lets them hit a market they haven't been to in awhile
Shitty deal because I would love to travel closer for stacked cards since I'm on the east coast. Don't like flying to Vegas for stacked cards only
Several good fights to make...
Gus vs. OSP
Anderson Silva vs. Uriah Hall, Robert Whitaker, Vitor (could be too close to last fight)
Anthony Pettis vs. Michael Johnson
Jeremy Stephens vs. Chad Mendes
Gunnar Nelson vs. Neil Magny
John Dodson vs. Bryan Carraway or Cody Garbrandt
Lil Nog vs. Rashad Evans

Is Andy going to be ready then?
Michael Johnson would bury Pettis, Pettis shouldn't have a ranked fight imo, unless they just want to cut him
I don't think Stephens is healthy from Barao yet, but that would be a fun fight
Rashad is moving to MW so I don't think that fight would work, he could rematch Machida tho
All great points ^^^
I am just throwing out names that could potentially fit the bill. I am attending UFC 201 and am hoping they add another top level fight.
So far UFC 201 is...
Lawler vs. Woodley for WW Title
Mighty Mouse vs. Reis for FW Title
Matt Brown vs. Ellenberger
McCall vs. Scroggins
Krylov vs. Herman
Hamilton vs Grabowski
Arzamendia vs. Brown
Brown vs Velickovic
Rivera vs Perez
C. Silva vs Bahadurzada
Rumored: Cyborg vs Germaine de Randamie at 140lbs
(Cyborg shot down rumors after UFC tonight reported it)

Nothing major.
I think the main card is probably more or less set. It's never gonna be a great card when they've got so many events running that month.

There will be at least 2 main card fights added but with 2 title fights already it isn't getting another huge fight
