    There are some that are half interested in. But I wouldn't watch live or pay to see no, that's what I meant. I'll read the results on them though!

    Joe Warren's scream is the funniest thing I have ever seen in a finish of a fight!

    He screamed like a little b----.

    I mean I would too if I was caught in a kneebar like that...

    but I wouldn't b---- about it after.

    "Im the Baddest man!!!!"

    lol his scream and then interview afterwards were classic. Dude you're 38 years old and your ACL was about to get Palhares'd.

    I dunno what the deal is with WSOF contracts or what but Gaethje is a top 10 LW in the world and needs to be in the UFC

    That fight was awesome but i'm not convinced that Gaethje's anything more then an Al Iaquinta type. Definitely want to see him in the UFC but Marlon Moraes is the guy we want in the UFC due to the lack of BW challengers.

    That Teddy Holder dude wrecked Thiago Silva last night too.

    I've been working on a "UFC wall" of sorts for a few months now, starting with 181. This is what I have so far

    Mainly doing only PPVs but the posters for Mendes/Lamas and Machida/Rockhold were in the 184 program

    Alexander Gustafsson vs Glover Teixeira will headline the Berlin show on June 20th.



    Also Cage Warriors LW champ Stevie Ray replaces Jason Saggo and will fight Marcin Bandel in Poland. Cage Warriors is getting ravaged by the UFC, kinda weird since CW's has a UFC out clause anyways.

    Gus and Glover should be a good fight. I don't really see him being much trouble for Gus though

    Josh Thomson vs Tony Ferguson is going down in San Diego on July 15th.

    Looking at the schedule that week in July is gonna be packed. That international fight week is pretty cool.

    July 10th-Invicta Cyborg card in Vegas
    July 11th-UFC 189
    July 12th-Hasnt been announced but its looking like it will be the TUF Finale, like they did with Edgar/Penn 3 last year
    July 15th-San Diego Fight Night
    July 18th-UFC Scotland debut

    Just back from the world tour in Dublin and the atmosphere was f---ing unreal and some funny moments but they shouldn't let fans ask questions at these just media, some of the questions was embarrassing

    Yeah but Ireland went psycho with it, it looked more exciting than some fight nights, London was dead as f--- for example.

    Aldo did seem like he was forcing the whole "I will take Ireland over thing", but simmered down after Conor went nuts due to the crowd, started banging his hands against the table and took his belt.

    Can't wait for a video with decent audio of the stare down.

    The brazilian chick (I think) had balls of steel, lol
