UFC 205 Madison Square Garden

It will sell out no matter what.. I think 2 big fights and a bunch of locals. Maybe a legend or 2
Just like UFC Toronto. Wasn't a huge card but so much hype behind it being the first time there in one of north Americas biggest city.
Toronto did the biggest gate the fastest sell out and most attendance with a decent card. I expect the same for New York
Anything with McGregor, Aldo, Rousey, or Cruz will be big draws for casual fans.

GSP vs Lawler would be a huge draw. Wishful thinking of course.
 
Weidman/Rockhold 2 is a strong possibility, but I hope not honestly. I'd rather see both fight someone else at least before a rematch. If Bisping gets a win over Hendo, Bisping vs Nick Diaz would be great.No Love should have a couple more fights before fighting Cruz.

So Bisping beats Hendo and Nick gets a title shot? The Nick Diaz who hasn't won a fight in 5 years???

That's when Gsp wants to return. New York is a second home to him.
I'm from Toronto and I want to get tickets for this event even not knowing who will be on it lol

GSP vs anybody would be a big draw and a big surprise. I want to see him fight Lawler asap.

I'm saying it would be a fun fight much like Conor vs Diaz. Nick is most likely going back to 170 when he returns. He wants GSP and Condit rematches and he might get them. Robbie or Wonderboy vs Diaz would be interesting too.
 
weidman vs jacare is the way to go!!! i wanna see that fight!
 
Possibly. TWood and Wonderboy are dangerous, but Robbie has a history of surviving wars.
I got this feeling it's gonna be a quick first round ko ... Robbie's been through too much in is career. Time will tell.. That's why I love this sport.. Anything can happen on any day
 
I have a feeling it's going to be a decent card. At least on paper.
 
Conor vs Aldo 2
Rousey vs Nunes
Cruz vs Dillashaw 2
Joanna vs Namjunas/Karolina
Weidman vs Jacare
 
Mcgregor vs. Aldo 2
Rousey vs. Nunes
Edgar vs. Holloway
Rashad vs. Shogun
Sterling vs. Almeida

That with a few decent prelimin fights would do for me
 
They should definitely be looking at McGregor vs Aldo & Rousey vs Nunes double header. Then get Edgar, Weidman and Rashad opponents on the main card. Then fill the prelims with other East Coast and Canadian fighters and you're there.

Shad at 185 intrigues me.
 
Conor McGregor vs. Jose Aldo II
Ronda Rousey vs. Holly Holm II
Chris Weidman vs. Jacare Souza
Frankie Edgar vs. Dominick Cruz
Tony Ferguson vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov

This'll never happen, but I can dream.
It won't happen, especially in that order. You don't put a title fight (Cruz vs Edgar) beneath 2 non-title fights.

Also, Ronda probably won't be fighting this year.

McGregor vs Aldo II
Cruz vs Edgar
Nunes vs Holm
Weidman vs Souza
Khabib vs TFerg

Not totally unrealistic imo. Especially after the UFC 200 debacle, they want a big event that does really well.

All of those are possible. Cruz vs Edgar would be awesome.

Yeah Ronda is wishful thinking for sure. When I put Edgar/Cruz though I had it at 145. Since Cruz had talked about fighting up in weight recently which is why I had it ordered the way it was. I should have specified.
 
If it's going to be McGregor vs. Aldo, I'd rather not Weidman/Rockhold, seeing as both were at 194. Why not Weidman vs. Jacare and Rockhold vs. Romero anyway?
