    I know it's been a rumor going on for a minute now , but Lawler va Woodley is confirmed to UFC 201
    Probably the best thing for Weidman right now, Rockhold was clealry balls deep mindfucking him so some more time to mentally prepare himself would do him some good.
    Wonder whose gonna fill in for him though.

    don't understand people calling for Bisping to fight Rockhold. they just fought and Rockhold took him out with ease. enough with the rematches, i want to see a fresh fight... actually, I want to see Jacare vs Rockhold 2... enough time has passed.

    Im not gonna be too picky with a late replacement fight, especially since Jacare wouldnt be able to get cleared anyways. Bisping finally gets his title shot and then Rockhold fights Jacare afterwards.

    Yea DJ defending his belt against Wilson Reis at 201 and Cris Cyborg will fight Germaine de Randamie(#12 WBW) at 140 lbs on that card as well. John Lineker vs Michael McDonald will co main the Sioux Falls card on July 13th and also Ryan Bader vs Ilir Latifi is being targeted for a future fight(card TBD).

    edit: Also sounds like they are targeting a Cleveland Title defense for Stipe in September.

    DJ gonna wax Reis. Also, Helwani claims that Cyborg vs GDR isn't as close to being official as they're making it sound

    lol at Mayhem coming in 24 LBS over weight. I dunno how hes even allowed to leave the country with all his legal troubles.



    But yea looks like Cyborg wants to defend her Invicta title and doesnt want to make 140 again so quickly.

    Catching up on some of the Fight Pass exclusive events. Thought this KO was pretty cool.



    EFN is the same organization that is doing Fedor vs Fabio Maldonado on June 17th, Former Bellator HW Champ Vitaly Minakov will fight Peter Graham on that card as well. Russian organizations always seem to deliver exciting fights.

    The chaos if Bisping becomes MW champ. Rockhold and Weidman irk me so bad, I just pray it happens to see their salty tears lol. And then Jacare can come in and clear house idc.

    Met Venom Page last weekend guys. Saw Greg Jackson, Dan Hardy and David Haye too.

    Really humble and friendly actually lol. He was doing a guest seminar as part of an expo. I didn't take part because I didn't bring a change of clothes with me but I basically sat at the sidelines and listened to the entire thing whilst my bro participated. Was honestly expecting it to be a run-of-the-mill thing where people go through the usual basics, but instead he essentially went through the fundamentals of his game in a way that anybody could apply it to their own. Was really impressed. Like, literally everything from his psychology/taunting to his reasoning for sticking with linear strikes to how he lines people up with setups.

    There was maybe 15 people tops on the mat so he didn't have to do that.
