I'm still a mark for TTTHS.

Yoel Romero vs. Robert Whittaker for the 185 interim belt set for July 8, UFC 213. Garbrandt-TJ is off Ultimate fighter curse strikes again.
I've stacked on Romero on his last 5 fights but Whittaker will be a tough line methinks

yep, definitely would be a house from him

TJ should be able to easily make 125 imo but Mighty Mouse will do what he always does.
the feud is patently meaningless to me.
Garbrandt put on one of the most inspired performances I've ever seen in his last fight. how he would look against TJ would answer a ton of questions about what his future holds.
TJ still the hottest fighter in the UFC.
Cody looks like a more talented CM Punk lol

How can Aldo be "promoted" to champion when he lost to Connor in 13 seconds? Max also lost to Connor but hasnt lost since 2013. Why not just have one interim champion and no champion ?
This should be a good fight but not main event worthy and the rest of the card is a fail.
Gustafsson ko while the video lasts

i was so tempted to stack up on gus decision but the only thing that stopped me was glover looking like he's on the fast road to retirement lately.
Dodge the tough fight? MM wants nothing to do with Dillashaw at 125.Quote:

Dillashaw for the 115 title and the record is the right fight. Trying to justify Borg being more deserving looks silly and its transparent. He wants the easy path to the all time title defense record. Do you see it differently, tubs?
Oh well if a mma blog aggregation site that harvests opinions from Sherdog threads said it, by all means continue.
Honestly if Max beats Aldo im going to have some sand in my vulva over it.
There is no way Max loses this fight, back up the truck boysQuote:

I hate when they put chicks no one gives a shit about on the main card but it is worse right before the main.
card is headlined by what might end up being fight of the year, but sure, talk about fake belts. I guess until Conor defends at 145 we should just close down the division, huh?Quote:

Not at all . But why even have a champion belt at all for someone that didnt earn it? Just make number 1 and 2 ranked fight and then declare a champion.Quote:

Yes, I prefer to call it fake until the outcome tonight since it is even more silly to call Jose Aldo the current Featherweight champion since it was given to him.Quote:

I never denied tonight was a legit title fight. It completely is legit. My only point is that Jose Aldo should not have been gifted the championship belt. One should be the interim champion and the other should have no title .
Aldo is a man who annoyed me with all his injuries but the guy didn't lose for nearly 10 years and finally did in the most fluke way possible.
He did beat Edgar for the interim belt and it's not his fault McGregor is too big to fight again, which annoys me a bit because we didn't get to see shit with that fluke finish.
Jose injuries were another problem too but what other option did UFC have here with the featherweight division?
Shut down the division for a few years while McGregor is exploring all his options?
It is what it is.
Aldo is a man who annoyed me with all his injuries but the guy won 18 straight fights and didn't lose for nearly 10 years before the fluke finish to Conor leaving us wondering how the fight would have played out.
I am intrigued by the fight tonight with Max but not much else of this card. With that said some events that don't seem to be stacked have surprised us in the past.
its aldo v max tacked onto a UFN card. anyone paying for this is part of the problem.
i was stoked about pettis v max because i wanted to learn things about max under pressure, and pettis himself admitted he wasnt in the ring that night.
aldo put a beating on edgar the likes of which i havent seen happen in ages, so emotionally i feel like aldo will do fine, but intellectually ... max is a huge question mark, and nothing about edgar translates into max's physique, style, so on.
so yeah say what you will about the rest of the card, max v aldo is going to answer some questions for me i expect.
the Aldo beating Edgar aint the same man fighting MaxQuote:

There really doesn't seem to be any evidence at all that Aldo has lost anything. Add that to the fact that pretty much every leg kick thrown at Max ever has found its target, and Max is facing a huge uphill battle here.Quote:

the man lives in the middle of one of the great salmon runs on earth but has yet to post a single picture of him catching them and you want logic?
GROW THE FUCK UP CROWE.
Apart from Adamant, I don't get any real consensus here for the betters among us. What say you ? Signed, a real degen
I legit think Aldo is going to kick one of Max's legs off but not enough to lay legit heavy action on it.
maybe both legs.Quote:

ok, thanks guys! I think...
Erick Silva is my hail mary bet tonight.
I like Yancey just fine but Silva should be able to grind out a w here. For Yancey to win, he will have to put in the best fight of his life.
And he totally could, make no mistake, but I think Silva has a very reasonable edge here.
That said, all the late money has been going on Yancey so what the fuck do I know...
look at how heavy on his feet max is when he's in the pocket.
100 times out of 100 aldo is going to weave laterally and take a piece of max's calve with him.
