That was terrible but they always have content to show instead of playing music.
Why they didn't show PPV promos, weigh-in highlights, random mma news, and other highlights is beyond me.

I know exactly where you're coming from, first fight Conor typically looked like a man who had quickly moved up in weight. Chances he is now faster is virtually zero, but I still think he will have a significant hand speed advantage over Diaz.
The first two rounds will be interesting, Diaz has a pretty damn good chin and can take a punch very well... on the other hand Conor has a questionable chin.
Another thing to consider. Nothing motivates a man more then fear, especially a man with a big ego.
Not so much the fear of being beaten up but the fear of being humiliated.
Conor looks very lean in the body, his arms look huge now. Of course we all know how super fit Diaz is hence the last fight could have been a bonus in not having a camp, as he would have been nice and fresh.
Conor has amazing balance and moves and punches at strange angles, Diaz is super tough but very predictable with his striking. IMO
I'm simply looking forward to this fight, doubt I'll even have a bet on it. (fights I look forward to often let me down)
if you tend to buy fightpass and ufc ppvs, you should join the UFC rewards program. They give you points for dollars spent, and give you points just for logging in, watching a UFC video, buying ppvs and fightpass, etc. I joined sometime earlier this year, and just got a free ppv and month of fight pass. Especially if you are OSA and spent a grand on tix, may as well get something back for it.
Fightpass is the balls, tho. The archive is getting huge now. Love watching old affliction or elitexc shows and shit like that.
Going a half unit on fight goes distance at +145
Probably pass on the next one and go Nelson inside distance at +120

lost on Pyle tho.
Have Lewis here.
Took over on Roy/Lewis 1.5 rounds at +140. Purely an anti-public play. Hope to fade the big right hand
Thankful that the Lewis-Nelson fight is only 3 rounds, not 5. Good call, shizz.
I can think of zero other dudes that can take several bombs like Nelson can.
maybe he has extra fat inside his skull too?
speaking of getting crushed in the head and still sticking with the fight, Eddie goddamn Alvarez up next. Getting almost ko'd in the first few minutes used to be his thing for a while. Would love to see him pull this off. Would be way less crazy than Bisping's win, for sure.
YASSSS
About 4:11 into the clip is when Cormier first hears the news of Jones testing positive:

Cormier vs Silva would have been cool years ago (if Cormier was at the top of his game then which he wasn't) but props to Silva for stepping up to take this fight on such short notice.
Dana White was just on ESPN.
Mousasi, Hendo, and Silva all wanted the fight with Cormier. The fight is at 205. Silva is in Vegas and cleared all medical stuff today.
Dana said they were scrambling yesterday and they are bumping the Miesha Tate title fight to the main event. LOL ok sure.
WOW THAT MAIN EVENT. DD DOS ANJOS
Hopefully this ends all the retarded talk of dos Anjos being the goat lightweight champ.

Cormier's great, love me some Cormier, but thats a suuuuuper deprecated line based on Silva getting Bisping'd.
This goes to prove McGregor was probably right that Dos Anjos didn't wanna fight him after how badly he crushed Aldo at 145 he knew he'd be next.. No doubt that had that fight gone off McGregor would've dropped Dos Anjos like a sack of potatoes in the first round likely.
I actually think Rafael dos Anjos beats McGregor and so does Eddie Alvarez.
In the post presser Alvarez said something like: "I've been taking on the best guys for a while now like Pettis and dos Anjos, who is the best in the lightweight division. I would ask Dana please give me an easier fight like Conor McGregor".
I don't think he is joking when saying that.
Public service announcement:
Please dont ride this bet, there is very, very little chance it pays out. It's more of an emotional gesture and hollaring at a potentially exploitable line but lets be real, Cormier is going to give Silva a robust beating more often than not.
Early leans for tonight:
Bruno +140 (vs old as balls Gray Maynard who has lost 4 in a row).
Khalil Rountree +145
For those thinking about firing on Nunes vs Tate, Miesha barely made weight today (towel in tow; jealous of the towel holders).
For Gastelum leaners (aka cmoney and myself, he's at -110), he came in at 171 and made weight....and Hendricks' fat ass, shaking on the scale, came in overweight AGAIN at 171.25. I immediately fired on Kelvin after hearing that.

Also of interest; Nunes is fucking awful.
Another reason why I like Bruno tonight: he's still working a part-time job. He's going to be hungry for not only a win, but a bonus, methinks.
the only not-ronda-rousey-fighter who has ever given tate a problem is the life long kickboxer who pieced up the most dominant female fighter in history like she was a ragdoll.
nunes has one (1) interesting win, over sarah mcmann who is like 2-3 at this point. the rest are C level womens mma scrubs and tuf washouts.
the irony of chaps, who can barely afford off brand cereal, chiming in on bet equity is infinitely more amusing than watching tate stifle nunes is going to be.
shizzmoney has the right of it; heavy on tate with an arb on nunes rd1.
Johnny Hendricks looks like how I feel when I have QQ or KK and an Ace hits the flop:
