Dec 25, 2015 Main Card(PPV)-10 p.m. ET Robbie Lawler(c)vs Carlos Condit(#4 WW)-WW title fight Stipe Miocic(#3 HW) vs Andrei Arlovski(#2 HW) Albert Tumenov vs Lorenz Larkin Diego Brandao vs Brian Ortega Abel Trujillo vs Tony Sims Prelims(FS1)-8 p.m. Michael McDonald(#8 BW) vs Masanori Kanehara Kyle Noke vs Alex Morono Justine Kish vs Nina Ansaroff Drew Dober vs Scott Holtzman Prelims(Fight Pass)-6:30-p.m. Dustin Poirier(#12 LW) vs Joe Duffy Joe Soto vs Michinori Tanaka Edgar Garcia vs Sheldon Westcott
Dec 26, 2015 Tumenov/Larkin probably my fave fight that's been so slept on lately. should be fireworks
Dec 26, 2015 Tumenov is a future contender, kid is only 23 or 24. Within a couple of years I expect him to be fighting for the belt.
Dec 26, 2015 Lawler/Condit, Tumenov/Larkin, Poirier/Duffy, Ortega/Brandao and the return of Mayday is what I'm most excited about. For some reason I'm not all that hyped about Miocic/Arlovski. UFC needs to put the Ortega/Tavares fight on YouTube, one of he best fights of 2015 imo.
Dec 29, 2015 I really like Condit. That'd be sick if he wins. At the same time I like Robbie so if Robbie wins I won't mind. It's going to be a blood bath for sure though!
Dec 30, 2015 suprised to see Duffy-Poirier went from fight pass main event to fight pass prelims on a PPV
Dec 30, 2015 Supposedly it's them giving back to the subscribers since that main event fell through. It looks like they are starting to focus on Fight Pass growth, between that move and Anderson Silva(who is probably still a top 5 PPV draw). In 2015 they did a lot fewer events then they did in 2014, but they added a lot more live content like Invicta, Titan FC, Shooto and some Russian org(the one Minakov fights in). Anyways they seem to be going in the right direction.
Dec 30, 2015 Yeah when I seen Anderson announced for fight pass I was thinking this He would get paid quite a bit and have percentage of the Ppv ? So to have to pay him and have him on fight pass it's definitely a big push
Jan 2, 2016 Both guys are so tough though and outside of Robbie's WTF Diaz KO neither have really been stopped with strikes. Think it's a 5 round war or Robbie gets caught late with a Condit submission. If you looked at Lawler/Rory 2 or Lawler/Condit(pre 189) on paper you would say Lawler/Condit is the better fight 12 times out of 10.
