Will ufc 200 be a let down?

[wellsdj1]

As the title says. While I think UFC 200 will be a good card will it be any better than some of the previous UFC cards? Will 2 titles on the line make it any better than the DC vs rumble and Weidman vs Belfort card, or UFC 194 card, with Aldo vs Conor and Weidman vs rockhold.

I would think the UFC would have to give us either 3 title fights, probably won't happen, or a "superfight" champ vs champ. If not I think it won't be any better than UFC 194 in my opinion. You can say the UFC is a victim of it's own success .

Who headlines UFC 200 and will UFC 200 be a let down?

 

[Yari]

If no Fedor, yes. Whatever they will line up will probably fall through due to some injury anyway.

Why the negativity about a card that has yet to be announced?

 

[SteveColdStone]

If Rhonda headlines then yes, but I doubt that will happen.

I want Jones vs DC/Gus as the main event.

If Rhonda headlines then yes, but I doubt that will happen.

Grrr!!

 

[SeattleFightFan]

lower your expectations and you'll be fine.

 

[SteveColdStone]

Grrr!!

That's why I spelled it like that

UFC 200 will be Ronda and Conor.

It will be UFC's jumping the shark moment, because after the 4 months of non stop marketing while ignoring every other event and fighter on the roster, fans will FINALLY realize this an entertainment company and not a sport. And after they blow their wad on this event, those same fans will turn on them mere months later when they see they can't keep up that amount of fake hype.

That is the risk. That they put waaaaaaay too much hype into this thing and end up with May/Pac. I'll bet they're hoping to put Aldo/Conor 2 and Ronda/Cyborg? UFC needs to diversify their hype machine a bit..

Because Sherdog.

The expectations that some are having for this card are way too high. For them it will be a let down. I've heard people talking about a card full of super fights and title fights. They will make it as good as they can but it will not be over stacked to the point that it will screw up any potential cards for the remainder of the year.

It could be the greatest event they've ever done, with 10 bloody wars that fans cream over.


It'll still be a disaster when now that's the expectations they've set up for all those fair weather fans they've been desperately trying to market towards.

It'll be Ronda vs some truck stop waitress as the main event, co-mained by Mighty Mouse vs another little person

 

[SocraticMethod]

Is UFC 200 going to be the July 4 card next year? If so, I'd expect a stacked card, but nothing far beyond other stacked cards. I don't think it's going to be full of super fights or have more than 2 title fights.

Jones comeback. I wasn't sure before, but I'd almost put money on it, now. Jones/DC II. Ronda/ItDoesntMatter in the co-main. Conor will be irrelevant to this discussion after he loses to Aldo. It would be too quick for a turnaround for him, in any case. I could see Conor/Faber on the card.

The thing with three title fights is they would either have to make the event PPV slot LONGER, or they would have to cut fights from the main card.

I think it's Rhonda/Cyborg. Especially since she's getting surprise Wada testing. As for Conor/Aldo, that's hard because because they have to stay injury free. Now I think it will be Jones rematch against Gus/DC winner.

I don't think I was being negative. I just can't see UFC 200 being better than UFC 194. Maybe I should have asked will ufc 200 be better than UFC 194?

 

[JKS]

I think it will be a step up for other good cards, but slightly. I mean how much better can they make it then a 194?? I imagine 2 big title fights, and one other big fight or 3 title fights. Maybe a super fight can be pulled out??

Jones-GusII would be a hell of a lot more marketable. Look for Dana to cream his pants if he gets to put the belt around Gus' waist.

can it top UFC 100?
