Jul 11, 2016 Main Card (FS1)-9 P.M. ET Michael McDonald (#5 BW) vs John Lineker (#8 BW) Tony Ferguson (#3 LW) vs Landon Vannata Tim Boetsch vs Josh Samman Alexey Oliynyk (#15 HW) vs Daniel Omielanczuk Kyle Noke vs Keita Nakamura Louis Smolka (#12 FLW) vs Ben Nguyen (#15 FLW) Prelims (FS1)-7 ET Lauren Murphy (#13 WBW) vs Katlyn Chookagian Sam Alvey vs Eric Spicely Cortney Casey vs Cristina Stanciu Scott Holtzman vs Cody Pfister Prelims (Fight Pass)-6 ET Rani Yahya vs Matthew Lopez Devin Clark vs Alex Nicholson Sucks we lost the Ferguson/Chiesa Main event. Mayday vs Lineker should be awesome while it lasts. Devin Clark and Matthew Lopez were both discovered on the last "Lookin for a fight" episode, in the same arena in SD that they will both make their debut.
Jul 13, 2016 This is gonna be kinda half-assed but w/e... Michael McDonald vs John Lineker Another fun fight at BW between 2 knockout artists. I think Lineker is the more well rounded of the two and Mayday has been inactive, only having fought once since Faber whooped him in December 2013. He looked physically pretty weak in his last fight against Kanehara and i think Lineker will be able to get the fight to the ground if he chooses too.. Taking Lineker by 2nd round submission after he hurts McDonald on the feet. McDonald's KO of former #1 BW in the world Miguel Torres Lineker's crazy exchange with Francisco Rivera leading to Guillotine Tony Ferguson vs Landon Vannata Original Main Event was supposed to be Ferguson vs Michael Chiesa, but with Chiesa pulling out of the fight so late they weren't able to find Ferguson a ranked opponent. Vannata is supposedly a solid prospect but i haven't seen much of him. Despite not knowing much about the guy, Ferguson should run through him in the 1st by whatever he wants. Ferguson choking out Edson Barboza Tim Boetsch vs Josh Samman Boetsch is probably fighting for his job here, hes lost 7 of his last 9 and Samman is a solid up-and-comer (despite his recent set back against McCrory. Tim Boetsch's incredible comeback against Okami, he got his a--- beat the first 2 rounds. Outside of Kongo/Barry (which will never be topped) its probably the best comeback in UFC history. Josh Samman's KO of Eddie Gordon. This was Josh's first fight back after his Girlfriend died in a car accident and he took an extended break. Alexey Oliynyk vs Daniel Omielanczuk Oliynyk is a 39 year old 60 fight MMA vet, he is 2-0 in the UFC. You may remember him from his scarf-hold headlock submission of Cro Cop. Omielanczuk is 3-2 in the UFC and is pretty much your run-of-the-mill meh European HW. I think Alexey submits him in the 1st round. Oliynyk KO of Jared Rosholt Kyle Noke vs Keita Nakamura Noke is a 10 fight UFC vet, as well as a TUF season 11 vet. He also coached TUF Nations opposing Patrick Cote. His career has kinda been derailed due to injuries. Nakamura has had 2 seperate stints in the UFC, about 8-9 years apart. Hes fought in a lot of the bigger Asian organizations (Shooto, Dream, Sengoku & Deep to name a few). I've got Noke by decision, but with how hes looked lately im not super confident in that. Nakamura's comeback RNC against Jingliang. Louis Smolka vs Ben Nguyen Good fight between two young ranked FLW's (well Ben was when i made this thread). Both guys are well rounded but im leaning towards Nguyen by decision. You might know Ben from probably the most Viral MMA video of all time. Lauren Murphy vs Katlyn Chookagian Don't know much about Katlyn other then she is another Mark Henry product, tough fight for her debut. Murphy is a grinder and not the most exciting fighter, but she should be ranked higher then she is as she definitely beat Liz Carmouche. Not knowing much about Kat I have to lean towards her, but would be nice to see a new face in the mix so im rooting for the opposite. Sam Alvey vs Eric Spicely Spicely is a BJJ guy from the most recent TUF. He was KO'd by the eventual winner Andrew Sanchez in the Semi Finals. Sam Alvey is a guy who is always looking for the KO and thats it. Its not abnormal for him to come out and not throw a single strike for 2 mins, as he gauges his opponents timing. Unless Eric has made some significant improvements since the show Alvey should stop him in the 1st. Alvey vs Cezar Ferreira Cortney Casey vs Cristina Stanciu Meh matchup between 2 bottom tier WSW's. Ever since Casey came out on fire against Joanne Calderwood she has looked pretty bad. Stanciu is the Romanian girl who got outclassed by Maryna Moroz on the Rothwell/JDS fight. I'll take Casey by decision i guess. Scott Holtzman vs Cody Pfister The Pfist is back! But nah Cody's stock is way down with how bad Sage looked against Enrique Marin, Holtzman is nothing special either. I'll take Holtzman by submission, based strictly on the fact that Cody was subbed by Sage.

Jul 13, 2016 Excellent card. Ferguson-Vannata was nuts. Too bad the guy gassed. For 2 weeks and a huge step up, he definitely went balls out.
Jul 14, 2016 Bummed that McDonald lost but Lineker is a killer. Hope we see him vs Cruz sooner rather than later
Jul 14, 2016 Co-Main and Main event were f---ing nuts! Huge fan of Vanatta. He's a Jackson-Wink dude so sign me up! Garbrandt - Lineker plz
Jul 15, 2016 Vannata graduated from my former high school five years before I did. Was fifth in the state of FL for wrestling that year too. Was sad to see him lose. Looked great for two weeks of preparation against a #3 contender. Would've been real cool to see him win though.
