I was at work this morning, and saw on my phone that Varner was fighting Barboza. I began to laugh hysterically. WAR BARBOZA!

Well, Barboza is the obvious pick but I would bet money on Varner at +600.

Prediction: correct Varner   wrong Decision  

+300? C'mon, Hendo's at +450 against Jones, Varner's got to have at least similar numbers.

Jamie Varner's back in the UFC. Didn't he get dominated in a fight last year against the gay ****star? The same gay ****star that lost a TUF entry fight?

kk just looked it up, it was like 8 months ago. Why is this fight happening?

Its crazy to think that Barboza is at 155 along with Hendo, edgar, pettis, Miller, Diaz, Guida, Maynard, Cerrone
155 no doubt the most stacked division in the UFC.
I mean, think of Barboza vs Pettis. How amazing would that be.
oh, and has Barboza fought a good wrestler yet? If not then that just may be his kryptonite 
anyway, Barboza via whatever he wants,

The Lightweight division is easily the most stacked division in the UFC, shouldn't even be arguable.
