I really like Miocic, but this is a tough fight for him.

I think Nelson should be able to KO him in the first or second round.

I like this match up alot. Thinking Nelson can get it done though but it can turn into a hell of a fight

I don't know why they took Soa out of the fight. I got Stipe via wrestling in this one regardless of Nelsons BJJ.

They should have left the fight alone and made Nelson versus Cormier for FS1 Indiana headliner. Nelson would not get a title shot with a win over Stipe. He needs to fight top guys no offense to Stipe right now.

I forgot about that guy,yeah he's good.But as Duffee fan i wanna see that guy fight already,its been 5 months and he's such a fun fighter to watch i think GDS will probably end up fighting Gonzaga.

@Shakeandbakei- I wanna see Duffee fight Geronimo in his next fight. I hope they don't throw him to the top of the division and have him work his way up. Duffee has a lot of potential and needs to work on his skills.

UFC needs more heavyweights.

The sport needs more quality heavyweights. UFC already has most of the best heavyweights in the sport.

If MMA paid more, you'd see more heavyweights. Most of the big athletic people go to the NFL, NBA, and so on. You also have heavyweight prospects who can't get a fight because of lack of fighters willing to fight them. It's a tough division for the UFC's, depth wise.

I can't believe they scrapped Stipe/Soa.

Forgot about Duffee ... what's he been doing? Contract disputing again or something?

Curious to see what they do with Duffee as well.

DC and him are friends and partners so don't see that happening.Barnett is a possibility,i hope it doesn't happen though.I would hate to see Todd lose.

I'm afraid Duffee and Cormier are now AKA bros, so that's probably out of the picture:
