I really doubt chimaev wanted to pull out of this fight, @hyrm. Covid can **** people up for a long time and chimaev is willing to fight anyone in 2 weight classes so that’s a pretty thin argument to make. 

And @tieoken I think hall would have wrapped him up in a heel hook or some other bs before he got the chance, but apparently the bookies were agreeing with you.

Edward vs wonderbread is a good fight and makes more sense for the division let borz rest up and fight someone closer to his rank.

I hope Edwards takes the Wonderboy fight, Other than the Masvidal fight it probably makes the most sense. Though I don't really want either of them to lose...

Masvidal wont ever take that fight unless Edwards become champ. He know he is in for a decision lost again Edwards.

Behind Alistair and Edgar, Wonderboy is my third favorite fighter mostly because I like his style of fighting considering out backgrounds are much the same. But damn, he is a fighters fighter too. He might not be like the Diaz brothers or the Cowboys or the Lawlers of the MMA world, but he's a real gamer for sure to take that fight on short notice.

Damn I really wish Chimaev was ready for this date.  My birthday is on the 14th so it would have been my birthday card.  A lot of value on this card.  Would have taken Chimaev inside the distance.   

I feel strong about Nasrat Haqparast on this card.  I think he would have lost to Arman but he got recheduled to a more winnable fight for him now.  I like Haqparast by decision or a possible knockout.

Rothwell vs. Lins
Ben Rothwell, DEC
Rothwell is slowly declining, but he's still tough as a rock with decnt boxing skills, he should be able to win a weird fight here, but I can't see him reach the top 10 again after that... Maybe they can throw him Greg Hardy next ?

the winner of edwards/wonderboy would, in a fair world be next in line for a title shot, considering the rankings. but its not a fair world when you work for uncle dana.

Wonderboy wont be ready for this event and Edwards dont want to wait again. According to variable MMA site, Talk are actually Edwards-Covington and Wonderboy-Chiessa

@Bear
I thought WB said throw him in there against Edwards here? Really hope they don't make the two fights you said, those are both sub-optimal options. Who wants to see Chiesa WB when we could get WB Edwards or WB Usman? And then give Chiesa somebody that won't spark him and put a stop to his great work lately. I'd love the Colby Chiesa fight personally, but I know Colby wouldn't agree to it. I just really hope they don't waste WB with a fight vs Chiesa, that's my main worry.

Garcia lost to Pena the Can...Jourdain is an ok fighter with good kick boxing....too much for Garcia.

Nasrat Haqparast, DEC
Haqparast may knock out Madge

I like that match-up, classic wrestler vs striker. I think Edwards wrestling will be to big to handle. Props to Muhamad to take that fight on short notice.
