Cain Velasquez vs Travis Browne and Gegard Mousasi vs Derek Brunson both targeted for UFC 200. Also Renan Barao is moving up to 145 and will fight Jeremy Stephens on May 29th in Brazil

So I wonder who Travis Browne will face at UFC 200

 

Mar 17, 2016

Saw a tweet saying Moose-Brunson is the comain. So Cain-Browne is the main event? RIP the UFC 200 meme. @redsoxx

 

Mar 17, 2016

Doubtful

Probably Roy Nelson. But nah if Cain pulls out, he needs to retire.

Mousasi/Brunson will probably be the FS1 prelim headliner if i had to guess. My guess for UFC 200 is McGregor/Edgar and Tate/Holm 2.

 

Mar 17, 2016

Since it's being reported as comain, I'm guessing it's on the main card at least. I don't think the UFC wants a Tate/Holm trilogy as much as it wants Ronda to be on 200. That makes me wonder if they'll even put McGregor and Ronda on the same card.

 

Mar 17, 2016

Who exactly is saying its the co main though? There are like 6 bigger fights on 198 alone and UFC 200 is supposed to be huge. Gonna be 2 title fights almost guaranteed.

Also I still dont think Ronda is coming back until November. If Holm won the Tate rematch, they would just do Holm/Rousey 2 in November because its the bigger money fight.

 

Mar 17, 2016

See, I think UFC 200 will be huge too, but has anyone from the org actually said that? Is it just fan projection from UFC 100?

No way does Tate's manager let her get f----- like that. If she doesn't get a trilogy in writing before the rematch, she's an idiot. Also, would the UFC want to put the Holm/Rousey 2 on an already stacked card? I really don't see them doing that.

 

Mar 17, 2016

Im not gonna go searching for quotes but they definitely indicated for a while that the event would be UFC 200 esque. I mean they announced the card a year ahead of time. I really doubt that Miesha's manager has all that much say in them getting a rubber match with a loss. Miesha will be more then happy taking PPV points at UFC 200 and making BANK.

If they do Tate/Holm 2 at UFC 200 and Holly wins that would set up Holm/Rousey 2 for the date that Ronda wants to come back, in November(the UFC has already book marked MSG in November, it looks like they are finally getting into NY). So not sure what you mean with putting that fight on an already stacked card.

They've never done it. On UFC tonight last night Helwani said RDA's ppl wanted Nate Diaz or Lawler at UFC 200 and the UFC told them they were going in a different direction. Still havent heard whats next for Robbie Lawler though, could be Condit, Woodley or Nate Diaz(wild card). IF they were to do 3 title fights it would be WBW, FW and WW i would assume.

McGregor is about to go on a two fight losing streak.

 

Mar 18, 2016

Yeah pretty much, can't deny the guy has balls. Seems an all round weird move to do this at UFC 200, must be a good move financially and that seems to outweigh everything else.

Mar 18, 2016

This is silly

McGregor could so easily lose again.
Needed to be Edgar or Aldo rematch

 

Mar 18, 2016

Full camp, actual welterweight shape Diaz

vs.

Conor possibly beefing up even more and cutting to 170

 

Mar 18, 2016

Looks like did Conor didnt get enough of that Stockton Slap™

 

Mar 18, 2016

Thomas Almeida vs Cody Garbrandt will headline the May 29th Brazil card and Donald Cerrone vs Patrick Cote is being targeted for the Ottawa show.

 

Mar 19, 2016

If Hunt gets the knockout punch he'll take it but Mir has a lot more to his game.

 

Mar 19, 2016

Not feeling the rematch so quick, it was always gonna be there in a fight or 2

The belt should be vacated if he fights Diaz, bulking up and back down to 145 will probably k--- him.

Let Frankie fight Aldo for he belt and Conor stay at 155.

If Diaz Conor 1 did about 1.5 million with a 2 week build up, UFC 200 breaks 2 million I say.

 

Mar 19, 2016

Diaz will finish him again, extremely pointless rematch. Mir looked probably the worst I've ever seen at the weigh ins yesterday, I was on the fence but now I think I'll take Hunto by KO
