    Patch 1.02 of UFC 2 has patched Sage Northcutt in and Jessica Aguilar. As well has allowed Conor McGregor to fight in WW.

    Game comes out next Tuesday March 15th. Preorder now for Mike Tyson, Bas Rutten & Kazushi Sakuraba. Also if you have UFC 1 game data on your PS4/X-Box One you will get a free download of Bruce Lee.

    Wow, I felt like a marketer right there lol.

    Ya I preordered this time to. I played it with a friend of mine the first one online all the time. Game was super fun. I had the beta for the second, tried it online and wow I was terrible. I think I went 1/10 lol. The roster is huge! Gameplay is similar to the first one but I enjoyed the first one still played it regularly before the beta of the second one came out.

    Glover Teixeira replacing Shogun and will fight Rashad Evans at UFC on Fox next month.

    Awful match up for Rashad after seeing how he did against Bader. Dont think hes capable of the Phil Davis strategy at this point, especially considering how good Glover looked against OSP.

    Ruslan Magomedov out of co-main fight against Gabe Gonzaga on the FN Croatia card, Derrick Lewis will replace him. Actually like that match up better as Magomedov was probably gonna cruise to a decision(not a finisher) and Lewis/Gonzaga shouldn't see the 2nd round.

    Hard to pick against Wonderboy after how he looked against Hendricks. Rory has to get the fight to the ground or he'll get picked apart and stopped.

    Im leaning toward Rory pressuring him up against the fence, getting a few TD's and grinding out a decision.

    I see a stoppage either way. Thompson seems unstoppable on his feet and has trained TDD like a MFer. Totally agree Rory needs to dictate where the fight takes place and get it to the cage and on the ground. I just don't know n if he can. I thought Hendricks was the best fighter in the division and he got crushed.

    ^Shocker lol

    Yea i was shocked Wonderboy defended that Hendricks takedown. Huge confidence booster for him and then he unloaded on Hendricks with everything and got him out of there.

    As far as the best WW (pre Hendricks/Wonderboy) it was razor thin imo between Lawler, Condit, Rory and Hendricks. Condit imo just beat Robbie, Robbie beat Rory twice and also split the fights with Hendricks. Hendricks split with Robbie and beat Condit in a close fight(ive always said Condit wins that fight if its 5 rounds). Rory lost two back and forth fights with Lawler and he lost to Condit as a 20 year old, in a fight where he won the first 2 rounds. Kinda a bummer that Rory and Hendricks avoided each other for all those years, always thought Rory would take that fight.

    WW division is popping right now. Would love for Nick Diaz to get into the mix, but i have a feeling hes gonna fight Bisping when he comes back in August.

    I still wanna see Condit/Hendricks in a 5 rounder. With Condit's retirement talk, that only happens if they do the Lawler rematch and he wins this time.

    I feel like they've f----- up the WW matchups a little bit tbh. Wonderboy/Rory seems a bit silly to me, I dunno why.

    ^Yea i dont necessarily agree with the matchmaking. Would have made more sense to give Rory a rebound fight against DHK and then have Wonderboy fight the Lombard/Magny winner. If Rory wins I doubt he gets a title fight(if Robbie is still champ).

    Anyways Invicta tonight on Fight Pass, starts at 8:30 ET. I'll probably skim through it at some point.

    Ayaka Hamasaki vs. Amber Brown -for atomweight title
    Jennifer Maia vs. Vanessa Porto -for interim flyweight title
    Stephanie Eggink vs. Angela Hill
    Irene Aldana vs. Jessamyn Duke
    DeAnna Bennett vs. Roxanne Modafferi
    Jinh Yu Frey vs. Herica Tiburcio
    Sarah D'Alelio vs. Andrea Lee
    Aspen Ladd vs. Kelly McGill
    Sarah Click vs. Ashley Greenway
