Which fight should replace Rivera on the main card?

[Osiris3657]

It's looking less and less likely (maybe it's been made official) that Rivera will stay on the card due to Moraes' blatant ducking after Rivera accepted his offer.

It has to be Diakiese vs Hooker right? Maybe the casuals will get to see a sick KO by the bonecrusher

he lost a Split Decision to Drakkar, but it was Klose.

[Thad Castle v2]

It is the Hooker fight

so a 1 week new year's short notice replacement is called blatant ducking now?

This fight card is so weak lol Just saw that Esparza is on the main card too. This is a Fox Card at best.

I think it would have been a decent card, but then two of the best fights, Saki vs Rountree and Lineker vs Rivera got scrapped

Marlon called him out when Lineker pulled out and said that Rivera can’t run any longer. Rivera gave him a 2 pound allowance, then a 4 pound allowance, then said he would fight at 145, Marlon still didn’t sign. I am a Moraes fan but after all that shit happened it was pretty clear Moraes didn’t want to back up his words.

I am surprised Marlon Moraes isn't our guy here. I am guessing he can't make the weight because he talks like this is the fight he's always wanted.

I forgot Saki was supposed to fight on this. They lost a real good matchup there.

It's gotta be Diakiese x Hooker

Marc Diakiese is the future of LW

What he said. Maybe you pay attention to MMA news if you're a fan.
