    Oh trust me I get that, just wasn't sure if they atleast confirmed what the co-mainevent match was gonna be. In retrospect it'll kind of seem like a waste though with how things turned out.

    Tate/Nunes does makes sense, even if it is an underwhelming co-headliner (for now). 3 5 round fights is pushing it as is, 4 seems highly unlikely.
    Will be interesting too see how the rest of the card gets set up now that both Ronda & McGregor are seemingly off the table.

    Not impressed by Henderson's performance at all

    Whoa, he actually lost? I always thought the UFC guys were a step up from Bellator or Strikeforce (when it was around). But I guess not.

    Starting to get back into UFC, I haven't watched since Lidell was on top and Ortiz was still being a little p----. The games made me interested in it again. When's the next PPV and do they still air normal episodes?

    The next PPV is May 14th and is pretty stacked from what I understand.

    and yes They air about 1-3 free episodes in-between each PPV.

    There's only 1 this time around and its On May 8th on FS1.

    Usually they have 1 on Fox, 1 on FS1 and/or 1 on Fight Pass.

    Will be interesting to see how that fight plays out. This time around DC shouldn't have any "excuses" (assuming Cain can actually make it too 200 injury free) and I imagine Jones will be more motivated than ever given the last year or so that's he's had.
    Hopfully this fight doesn't fall through.

    Very worthy. McGregor/Diaz II never made sense anyway. Conor should've stayed in his weight class before jumping to Lightweight, let alone agreeing to a Welterweight fight at 170.

    It made sense money wise for UFC

    Mcgregor/Diaz would have probably sold almost double the ppv's than Jones/Cormier
