No fight this weekend then?

The fight is still happening, just Pettis can't win the belt.

This fight is terrible. Heavyweight UFC is so grim sometimes.

Yep

Sick card of fights in the end. Good highlight ko's and a awsome war in the swanson fight. Not sure where to now for pettis i know the weight cut hurt him but he just isnt good enough against the best of either weight class any more

Not to sure about having a 145 womens devision. Seems so odd without cyborg being in the fight. I would have thought it would be the ufc best chance to get the ronda/cyborg fight if cyborg held the belt. Some strange goings on on the company atm

I heard they needed a big fight for the NY area and they believe the 145 women's division will have good support there. Cyborg only has herself to blame for not being in the fight, moaning for years she wants a 145 division and then saying she needs 3 months notice to make the weight!

She'll no doubt be the first challenger anyway, and this way the fight will get more hype, she needs a publicist cos she doesn't seem bright enough to market herself correctly.

Is it a big fight thou you got holly coming off 2 average looking losses and germaine with a 7-3 pro record and a 1-1 record at the weight. Apart from the fact holly ko'd ronda not really sure this fight adds much to the card at all. If cyborg really did ask for the fight to be held in march im sure they could have waited and scheduled a fight with more marketting apeal for this card. Just my opinion thou. Anyways for some reason im looking foward to Mickey and northcutt not sure why other then i think its genuinely a interesting match up to see 2 of the promotional pin ups up against each other. I got mickey tko win

Gall v Northcutt, interestin one.

 

[rhino_83]

Good win that for gall, still got some way to come but definatly a talented kid.paige was just out classed, but as tough as the come no quit in her. Good to see faber sign off with a w aswell had a good career

So what does everyone think about Rondas chances in her return fight? I'm struggling to call this one it all depends on if Nunes can avoid the hip toss to keep the fight standing she should have a huge advantage on feet just like Holm did we all know how that ended..

Cruz vs Garbrandt. This is insane.

 

[Azzurri]

I can't believe what I'm watching.

Cruz and Garbrandt was fantastic.
