Jon Jones vs. Stipe on November 11th in NYC.
I think that Stipe is a bit past his prime so this will either be a Jones demolition or a slow plodding decision that Jones wins.

He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

UFC: Remember that fight everyone was wild about 6 years ago? Well guess what? This shit is as bad as boxing now, which was their mantra for the longest time. Our best always fight our best, no promoters get in the way.

Considering that a number of once great MMA fighters end their careers with a whimper. Its nice to see Robbie Lawler go out with a big KO.

I was. Tyson spending most of last year and this year ducking Usyk and AJ with ridiculous demands and insulting them on social media, with his fanboys feeding off of his every word.

The boxing match is in Saudi. Francis and Fury are about to get PAID. Dana White punching air rn while trying to promote a fight between two billionaires with zero athletic ability and a Jones match against a guy that’s past his prime without Conor to fight and make UFC look like a draw(if he’s even still a draw). lol
Daily Dana L incoming when someone asks him about this fight.

And meanwhile the UFC Light Heavyweight title may be cursed as Jamahl Hill blew out his Achilles tendon and is vacating the belt.

Ngannou getting his payday that's probably going to be more than every dime Dana's paid him combined. Dana's going to spin this and shit on it but this is absolutely it being stuck to him no matter how much he wants to claim otherwise. And good. f*** Dana.

I think Ngannou’s team already confirmed this one payday will be bigger than the entirety of any deal UFC offered. Insane undervaluation by Dana, he basically robbing folks and the Francis deal confirms as much.

Apparently Jon Jones plans to retire after the Stipe fight. What a waste of Jones at HW. Dude waited like 2/3 years to bulk up beat Gane in 30 seconds and is going to beat Stipe and then roll out when the only fight that anyone wanted to see was Jones vs. Ngannou. LMAO. UFC is such a shitshow.

Never thought I would see the day where the Black Beast successfully lands a flying knee on someone.

Well Tony Ferguson has lost 6 fights in a row.
Might be time for someone close to him to give him the talk.

How does the BMF title work? I know Masvidal originally won it. Did he ever defend it? I don't remember. Are they simply pulling it out whenever they have a solid if not spectacular ME of a PPV that doesn't already involve a title? Is the BMF title sort of like the FTW title?
