So how long before Alvarez/McGregor is at least put in here as rumored because it's going to happen.

And according to a Sherdog forum post, Marcos Rogerio de Lima says on Instagram that he's fighting Gian Villante.

anyone else tought it was funny how they carried Conor out of the press conferfence. I tought it was hilarious when Dana lifted him up and kind of toss him aside.

I cant tell when the character ends and when Conor starts, they´re  becoming one

Cerrone/Gastelum is off.

Didn't even allow him to weight in. Must be pretty bad considering Thiago Alves missed the Lightweight limit by 6.5lbs. Alves/Miller is still on though.

It's too bad for Cerrone. I can only imagine he's not too thrilled about being pulled from this historic card.

I think it's about time to cut Gastelum. Making weight is a key job function. He failed too many times.

I don't think Kelvin will get cut. But he also won't have to worry about making 170 again. He's going back to MW. No way the brass will give him another opportunity after blowing another opportunity. 

Sucks for Cowboy and us fans that were looking forward to this fight and a rare 6 fight main card PPV. 

Cowboy vs Matt Brown is the new fight @206 next month. Sweet fight but not really sure how Cowboy losses that one. He should be able to finish Brown inside of 2 rounds but it'll be fun while it last.

Yeah, Dana ******' White already said that Gastelum will never fight at welterweight again.

It's not just Gastelum. The UFC needs to start coming down harder on these guys. Thiago Alves also missed weight by a ridiculous amount. Miller had to eat some fruit and drink some water and re-weigh in so he was only 5lbs lighter than Alves, or the NYC wouldn't sanction the fight.

This is the fourth event out of the last five that a Brazilian fighter has come in over weight and they had to change the bout to a catchweight.

I think guys should also have to do test cuts before they move down a weight class. Alves making lightweight seemed kind of dubious. He's lost mass but when he was really big he would miss welterweight and needed "aid" to cut weight so he probably just went from a roided-up guy barely making 170 pounds to a natural at 170 pounds.

@pilloryChoke. When I first saw alves moving to fw I didn't think he could do it. I think he's to old for the weight cutting now especially bc they banned IV's

15lbs is too much, at this size, between two weight classes. It might be weird at first, but I think there needs to be a 165 and 175 division and divvy up the 170 division.

Yeah, this weight cutting failures are getting out of hand.
