    Yea Hendo is at the point in his career where if he gets dropped they will probably stop it though, at least i hope so. Then again when Lombard drops you, you're probably out cold anyways as a normal non-45 year old.

    Kinda feel bad for Holloway. If he beats Lamas it will be 9 UFC wins in a row and he still wont have a Title shot unless McGregor drops the belt.

    Not surprised to see Rockhold as a 10-1 favorite as Bisping has nothing for him, but a little surprised that Cruz is almost 7-1.

    lol Jessica Andrade is dwarfed by Penne, crazy that she was fighting at 135.

    Wasn't too hyped for this but those UFC embedded and last nights press conference sold it for me
    The Main event and co-main event should deliver, don't see either title changing hands though

    Whole card should deliver tbh, card is stacked top to bottom. Rockhold/Bisping 2 probably isnt in my top 5 as far as anticipation.

    Seems like Diaz vs McGregor is falling through since Dana is "looking for a replacement" for Connor at 202 (or bluffing/bullshiting to make Diaz cooperate.

    Probably too quick a turnaround for either Edgar or Aldo so this might be Max Holloway's chance at a title shot depending on how tomorrow's fight goes

    Watch it be something weird like McGregor vs Pettis. I always envisioned Nick Diaz returning at 202, but that was before McGregor got bounced from 200. Havent heard anything about Nick though other then a small rumor about a Condit rematch a few months ago. Wouldnt be surprised if hes holding out for McGregor money as well lol...

    Hoping Michael "Belive you me" Bisping wins just for the post fight interview alone

    I've got £2000 on Rockhold at 7/1. Rockhold spoke about the MCL tear at the conference and the odds shifted. He's been throwing kicks for some time tho and he mentioned the tear a month ago. It's healed up. Only concern is the lack of cardio training he did while waiting for it to heal. Bisping on two weeks notice should balance that out tho. If Bisping wins, life isn't even real so the loss of money won't matter.
