Another first for the BLC this week, but not necessarily a good one.  We have such a lack of high (or even mid) level cards to choose from I'm listing almost every tier 4 card and we're dipping into Tier 5 to see if the captains prefer a couple ammy fights over pro's with no records.  Remember, we need to have a minimum of three cards approved for the weekend.  Onward!

Tier 1:

None

Tier 2:

None

Tier 3:

1.  RFA 24  (dropped 1 tier because of 2 ammy fights)

Tier 4:

2.  Afghanistan FC 3:  The most experienced fighters are listed at 2-0.
3.  Pro FC Ukraine:  Looks like quite a few mismatches, but honestly, it may be one of the better cards of the weekend.
4.  PLMMA 49:  It seems like we're always waiting for results for the weekend contest from these guys.  May not be the best choice for a BLC event.
5.  Fight Exclusive Night 6:  Not a bad looking six fight event.
6.  RFC 33:  Not very much experience on this card.
7.  Arena Fire Fight 2:  Lots of inexperienced Brazilians on this one.
8.  CFFC 47:  Meh, which is pretty high praise for this weekend.
9.  KOTC:  It's KOTC, so who knows how the rest of the card will be filled out.  Five pro fights so far, but nothing special about them.
10.  Shamrock FC:  Only five fights so who knows how it gets filled out.  The main and co-main are decent, the other three, not so much.

Tier 5 (I only looked at ones with fewer than three ammy fights):

11.  CTA Combat 3:  Nothing too special.  One ammy fight.
12.  Curitiba Fight Pro 3:  Some decent fights, some not so decent.  Two ammy fights.

An ugly weekend for sure, but things pick up again next weekend with PXC, ONE C, CES, XFCi, Pancrase and UFC all having events.  Good luck everyone!

Good thing theMMAMessiah got dropped because he wouldn't want to pick any of these ammy cards.

RFA 24 - Yes
Afghanistan FC 3 - No
Pro FC Ukraine - No
PLMMA 49 - No, talked to Joe the other day about it and he seemed to think a few bouts might drop off of it
Fight Exclusive Night 6 - Yes
RFC 33 - No
Arena Fire Fight 2 - No
CFFC 47 - No
KOTC - No
Shamrock FC - No
CTA Combat 3 - No
Curitiba Fight Pro 3 - Yes

Here's the DEEP Nagoya Impact card btw (a few wrong records but the right fighters and bouts), idk why it isn't on Tap yet. A few decent fights including Mizuki Inoue's brother but like this whole week not really a desired event for this. My vote is no if it's up for a vote but figured I would throw it out there with such a thin week.

RFA Yes.  It has the added benefit of being televised, which makes up for the two amateur fights.

Pro FC Ukraine.  Yes, since we're scaping the bottom of the barrel.

Fight Exclusive Night.  Yes, barrel-scraping again

CFFC   Yes.  Most weeks, no way.


The rest, no.  And if most others want to skip this week, that's fine with me.

I'm going to do some digging, but skipping this week might be for the best.  At a quick glance, it should still leave us with an UFC event for all star weekend.

As hard as it may be to believe, hornyGreen69er, that was a serious comment, assuming the schedule works out.  Too many ammy's makes @shot2thesac sad.

PS:  I liked your comment anyway, because @shot2thesac never down votes anybody.

I know, but shot2thesac is feeling down lately and is trying to be more serious

PS: Maybe we should add a rule that if there are no tier 1/2 events in a week, captains can vote to skip a week.

Alright, I looked ahead and honestly, we shouldn't skip this weekend.  As it stands currently we have M-1 56, Bellator 136, WSOF 20, Invicta 12, and UFC Fight Night 64 lined up for finals weekend.  If we skip this week, it pushes that lineup to the semi-finals and leaves us only with UFC on Fox 15 above a tier 3 currently scheduled for what would become finals weekend.  Seems like a safe bet that outside of an AXS card and possibly a couple tier 3 cards, nothing of significance will be added to that weekend.  I don't know about everyone else, but I sure would rather have a super loaded finals weekend and deal with this one than have a dud for the championship.

And this will be the last shaky week.  The last 5 weeks (not counting all star weekend) have 6, 5, 4, 3, and 5 tier 3 and above cards scheduled so far.

Jesus, totally dropped the ball on this and just noticed it thanks to @Live.  We don't have any fights entered yet, but this is a tier 3 card for this weekend.
