I don't think so. I think Jon Jones is a bigger deal than Brock Lesnar, and I'm more interested in Weidman's career than I ever was in Georges'.

@buffalo ben Well then this card is only better than UFC 100 in your opinion, because Jon Jones ain't holding **** to Brock Lesnar. He'd have to **** a Kardashian and murder a president if he wanted to get close.

To say a fight with Chris Weidmann is/was more important than probably the biggest icon the sport has ever had in America is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. Both the title challengers were better/more intriguing as well. Brock/Mir II was like the most hyped fight of all time, then Thiago Alves was just wrecking shop over everyone at the time, Belfort is a commodity who has already fought for multiple belts and lost every time, not too mention now that he's off TRT he's probably borderline top 5.
Then Bisping/Hendo at the time was miles more important intiguing than Cerrone/Khabib, then after that this card has 2 flyweight bouts.
I don't even think you can call it a matter of opinion which one was more stacked, the answer is 100.

Hate him if you want, but Brock would have brought the UFC into the mainstream. Jon Jones will never do that.

Belfort didn't lose every fight for a belt. Also Mir is off TRT and he looked even better, imagine if Belfort is even better now lol.
On a more serious note though no one could touch what Brock Lesnar did. This is a massive card though and whether its the GOAT or not doesn't matter to me, I just hope all the fights actually happen.

That gives Vitor a 3-3 record in fights with a belt on the line. One loss came to legend and HOFer Randy Couture and the other two came to top 5 GOATs Anderson Silva and Jon Jones.
