    I wish I had the money to spend to go down to Vegas for either UFC 187 or 189. Would love to see those fights live.

    So hype for 187 right now but I'm scared that by the time May rolls around only 1 or 2 of the fights announced will still be in tact. Also just realized that I'll be at a concert that night and will end up missing the card as it airs live. That's disappointing

    1 or 2 fights left from that original 5 is a little drastic.

    184 got smoked by injuries but the previous couple PPV's werent hit with injuries at all.

    Lets be optimistic ppl

    redsoxx I like your positive attitude.

    edit: I'm hearing rumors Zingano failed her pre-fight drug test...

    its just a rumor, but that card is f----- if true.

    187 is a disaster waiting to happen. Would be the best stacked card in ages if it really survives.

    Ya but i cant go through life as an MMA fan expecting every stacked card to turn into Calgary.

    Staples Center cards are worse though, 176 just got up and canceled and then 184 got blown up the the point that Raquel Pennington is in the co main event.

    Of the 10 UFC 187 fighters only Arlovski is ranked outside of the top 5.

    You could take all the fighters outside of the UFC and couldnt come close to matching that 5 fight card.

    UFC 187 has its 10th top 5 fighter, John Dodson is back from his ACL surgery and will fight Zach Makovsky.

    Also Eddie Alvarez vs Gilbert Melendez added to UFC 188 as well.

    Not gonna expect too much more from that card, as the June PPV's have really never been great because they usually stack the deck for Memorial weekend/July 4th(now "International fight week") weekend.

    They've also got a ton of other cards to fill out in May and July as well, Edgar/Faber card is looking record breaking weak outside of the M.E.
