At this point Miller is a step down from Holloway but a good comeback fight.nonetheless for the Leprechaun. Pickett vs McCall is a great fight and Gunnar vs LaFlare is amazing. Hopefully Cathal can get on the card, I don't follow TUF so no idea if he can or not.

OH YEAH!! Guess who's got two thumbs and is going to be there live ... this guy!!!! *pointing thumbs towards own chest*

With Conor, Uncle Creepy, Pickett and Gunni on rumoured to be on the card you might say it's tailor-made for me.

Anyone else of the European guys here popping over to Dublin to watch the card?

So much Potential

Cathal Pendred
Neil Seery
Chris Fields (If UFC keeps him he didnt look too good on TUF so far)
Paddy Holohan (was on TUF 18 and hasnt fought since, maybe UFC is saving him for this?)
 
I wish UFC would sign Aisling and have her fight Van Zant or something on this card but I doubt UFC would want anything other than the championship fight as the first 115 fight.

What.about Niniimaki? He'd be nice on the card.

I just hope Conor's recovery doesn't get set back because without him it just won't be the same... With him and Gunni I'm chuffed to bits, anything else is just icing on the cake.

Don't think so ... I think I've already seen Harris in "returning to Cage Warriors" promos...

Cut from the UFC
Signs with CW

Have they re-signed him?

Apparently. All of these were announced just now on Beyond the Octagon.

Probably re signed him so Seery can get that loss off his record

@Nomad, Niinimäki on the card would be awesome, but if I remember correctly he's set to fight Thiago Tavares on the Berlin card. That said, Tavares has pulled out of so many fights that it may still be an option ;)

I'm surprised they gave Gunnar such a tough opponent.

Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 565 Points   |   Tied for 182nd

I figured they'd give him a Vet on the decline or a no name prospect next. 

This is surprising and its going to be a very fun fight.

I'm glad they gave him a tough opponent, Gunnar has got the potential to be a future champ of the division so it's good imo that they gave him this chance to step up.

I think Gunnar Nelson and Ryan Laflare are the two most underrated fighters in the division. I´d rather see them both fight bigger names because im sure they both could beat higher ranked guys. This match up is a lose. The loser loses to someone way better than what people think, and the winner has to wait for another fight before facing someone significant.
