DW and Co. want Aldo/McGregor and Rousey/Tate III in Dallas on December 5. 

I'll believe it when I see it, but it's a credible enough rumor to toss into the FightCenter and get the conversation started.

AT&T stadium could potentially hold 100k people. I could see the UFC adding CM Punk and Fedor to this card trying to break the UFC 100 PPV record and the UFC 129 gate record. 100k tickets needing to be sold, perhaps they'll book Fedor vs. Cain Velasquez to get all those Mexican Americans in Texas to buy those tickets to watch Velasquez from the noise bleeds. Like they do when El Tri plays (anywhere).

AT&T? I thought it would be Cowboy stadium?

Same thing. AT&T bought the stadium naming rights.

Surprised they not try Super bowl weekend as that is usually the biggest event if the year after around July 4th.

Ok they've put on 2 events in one day but only on different continents. No way they're doing 2 PPVs on the same day and 194 is still listed for this date in Calgary.

Hopefully they slap Jacare vs. Romero on this badboy too.

Part of me wants to see Jacare vs Romero, part of me thinks they both deserves shots. Let Romero or Jacare get the winner of Weidman vs Rockhold and have the other guy face Bisping on the same card.

I think the Nomad got so many upvotes just from the thought of Bisping getting mauled by any one of the freaks that are Jacare and Romero :D

Kinda bummed that the UFC put this card in Vegas, as this is easily a "Wrestlemania-esque" event. It should be put in a big stadium like Cowboys Stadium or the Louisiana Superdome.  Still, very solid card from top to bottom and I can't wait for this awesome card.

Also, how many PPV buys do you guys think this card does?  I could easily see this card doing 1.5 to 1.75 million buys on PPV.

Greenhornet, the latter would be more than UFC 100. I don't see that happening. I think about 1 miliion.
