They just announced UFC Korea, pretty bad timing considering Lim and Bang both got finished and Nam lost (via robbery)

Looks like it got removed for whatever reason but the UFC Asia guy (forget his name) confirmed it on video

Edgar vs. Mendes next is inevitable.

If Aldo wins, he's vacating the title. So Edgar vs. Mendes will be for vacant FW title.

If McGregor wins, the UFC will book McGrgor vs. Aldo II immediately (that's just what they do). If that's the case Edgar vs. Mendes will headline a FOX card or Fight Night card in a true #1 contenders fight with the winner facing the champion between McGrgor vs. Aldo II.

You guessing Aldo will vacate or he say this?

I thought that was the worst kept secret in MMA right now. Aldo said he has an "announcement" after his title defense with McGregor.

Here's the link to an interview with him: http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Jose-Aldo-Promises-Announcement-After-Title-Defense-Against-McGregor-at-UFC-189-83265

He says that his management and the UFC know already, he's just not ready to reveal what it is until after his fight with McGregor.


I can't blame him. If he gets past McGregor there really isn't anyone at FW that he hasn't already faced, at least once.
