Decided to make this the UFC 147 discussion thread anyway, might as well.


The original intention though was to talk about the 2000th fight in UFC history, scheduled to be between Yuri Alcantara and Hacran Dias. What a milestone, the sport's come pretty far.

@Gregory why don't you just keep them as nicknames and have their real names there instead of giving them the Renan Barao treatment.

@anik their real names are still kept on the fighter page (under "given name") and if you search for them using the search feature you can find them both ways.  but by default, we'll display the name like "Rony Jason" because that's how everyone will know them.

****. The sun is coming up and there's two fights to go. Feel like one of those crazy asians who's been on a 72 hour League of Legends bender. (Two quick fights and I won't exactly be complaining!)

Is this a eating contest or a fight.  All that jaw movement was silly.
