Jan 3, 2016 Main Card(FS1)-10 p.m. ET T.J. Dillashaw vs Dominick Cruz-For BW Title Anthony Pettis vs Eddie Alvarez Travis Browne vs Matt Mitrione Ross Pearson vs Francisco Trinaldo Prelims(FS1)-8 p.m. Patrick Côte vs Ben Saunders Mehdi Baghdad vs Chris Wade Tim Boetsch vs Ed Herman Maximo Blanco vs Luke Sanders Prelims(Fight Pass)-6 p.m. Paul Felder vs Daron Cruickshank Kyle Bochniak vs Charles Rosa Ilir Latifi vs Sean O'Connell Rob Font vs Joey Gomez Francimar Barroso vs Elvis Mutapcic
Jan 4, 2016 Would have been stacked to the ceiling if Blanco/Bermudez and Taisumov/Dariush stayed in tack. Either way I like these Sunday events, I'm sure the Euro's won't though. Fox set up the NFL playoffs so that the Packers/Redskins game likely won't coincide with the Prelims. That game starts at 4:40 ET and the Prelims at 8. I probably should be trying to find a way to this show as I skipped McGregor/Siver. Seems like they are doing an annual Boston FS1 Mega show every January here though.
Jan 5, 2016 ^Scratch that about the Packers/Skins game, this is the week after. Denver will be hosting somebody(probably Pittsburgh) at 4:40 ET.
Jan 11, 2016 Lot of recent changes to this card. Mairbek Taisumov has been forced off the card and has been replaced by Mehdi Baghdad(RFA Champ and TUF 22 cast member). Jimy Hettes is injured and will be replaced by Augusto Mendes(Legacy BW champ moving up a weight class). Abdul-Kerim Edilov hurt his knee and will be replaced by Elvis Mutapcic(WSOF vet, MW moving up a weight class). Also Maximo Blanco is gonna fight Luke Sanders(RFA BW champ moving up to FW). Lot of guys taking short notice fights a weight class above where they normally fight.
Jan 14, 2016 Hard time betting on Cruz when he's been out so long. Too many variables in that equation.
Jan 14, 2016 Yeah i been thinking the same thing, I switched mine up to Dillishaw but I'll still be rooting for Cruz.
Jan 15, 2016 Kind of how I felt before he fought Mizugaki after being out 3 years... but then he fought Mizugaki. I'm almost having a harder time betting on TJ since he's only ever fought one ranked opponent in his life
Jan 15, 2016 No arguments there. TJ is also a wildcard imo. That just adds to my doubts about predicting the fight.
Jan 16, 2016 No tomorrow have to try get through all day Monday in work without finding out the results
Jan 16, 2016 Sorry Euro's it's the same deal as the McGregor/Siver fight last January. NFL playoff schedule is 4:30 ET & 8:15 on Saturday and 1:05 & 4:40 on Sunday. They will promote the s--- out of it through the Seahawks/Panthers game on Fox tomorrow and do really good numbers on FS1. Also another last minute replacement Kyle Bochniak replaced Augusto Mendes(who just accepted the fight a few days ago) against Charles Rosa.
