Why Joe Soto vs Rivera? Do you want to see Joe die?

But for real, this is a good list. Brown/Saffiedine, and Masvidal/Barberena would be great.
But Herman/Lawlor... Please, let this fight happen.

Gastellum/Lawler?? Worst attempt at matchmaking I've EVER seen in one of these threads. Kelvin is a rising prospect who lost a close, competitive decision to Woodley after he was FORCED to take intravenous fluids by doctors (THAT'S why he missed weight) so there's no need to match either up with someone who's already fought Woodley since we've seen Robbie finish Rory who clearly beat Tyron and a win over Kelvin wouldn't do much for Lawler while Kelvin is coming off a win and Lawler a loss. And for the love of god do not run back Velickovic/Graves.

Other than that they're pretty good.

I'd like to see Krylov vs. either Lil' Nog or Shogun, Rose vs. Valerie Letourneau if not someone like Albu afterall she is still only 24.

If Arzamendia even get another fight it should be against another fighter who's in UFC limbo. A fight with "Maestro" Dong Hyun Kim would be entertaining.

If GSP were smart he'd stay retired. I still think he'd beat the majority if not all of the 170ers, but he's got nothing to gain (other than money) and everything to lose in regards to his legacy. Anderson came back and tainted his due to USADA not ******* around about testing. I'm convinced we'll never see GSP fight again, at least no time soon. I think if he ever does come back it'll be a one time thing a long time from now, but I don't think even that happens. I agree with Hyrm's post 100%. GSP is always "interested" in fighting guys, but it never comes close to happening (as far as I know). Wonderboy has done more than enough to earn his shot at the belt, and he's going to take it from T-Wood. I was pretty damn confident Woodley would call someone out after winning in an attempt to dodge Wonderboy at least for his first title defense. I don't think anyone at 170 wants to fight Wonderboy right now, and I don't blame them.


Edit: Now would be a perfect time to make Lawler vs Diaz rematch. I'd love to see it, make it the main event of a fox sports or fox card. If they're going to fight I want the fight to be a 5 rounder. May not come anywhere close to making it to that point, but the option should be there in case it does.

I like the idea of Lawler vs Nick Rematch, but honestly rather Robbie vs Hendricks.  Have Robbie wining the rubber match handily and send Hendricks roiding ass packing.  He was not only in my opinion one of the most obvious roiders when he was at his best, his fall off has made if even more clear. Hendricks is significantly slower then he use to be, not as strong, he does not hit as hard as he once and his cardio not nearly as good as it once was. He also looks quite a bit smaller, yet still can't make weight..........Robbie would sleep hendricks and think it be a fitting end to Hendricks UFC run.

Hendricks hasn't tested positive for anything so I'm not gonna throw accusations around about him, or entertain any rumors.

Oh please. It so clear. He even dodge doing wada testing after calling GSP out.   Guess what GSP did the testing, hendrick ***** out.  Then as soon as USada comes around Hendricks gets way smaller, his cardiop drops off, his strenghn drops off and his speed significantly drops off. None of which can be related to age and all happen in spann of a year. Not to mention GSP has been implying from day one and his camp been saying Hendricks was roided to the gills.  Not to mention Johny was notorious like Gil was for blowing up between camps and not training at all, then some how in fight camp not only getting in shape but losing good 20 plus pounds of fat. There reports of hendricks getting as high as 230 and then some how making weight in the same size camp he always uses, but now with additional testing he constantly missing weight, interesting no?  That even with being significantly smaller then he was body mass wise. You can believe what you want, but to me it quite clear what he was doing the entire time. Johny drop off coinciding with USADA arrival is no "coincidence"

there are several fighters that  look diminished to me after USADA maybe its coinsidence but most likely not

Swanson
Hendricks I think him is the most obvious one
Big Pettis
Melendez
Jones looked like crap on his 1 fight , the one that he didnt popped for cocaine I mean

I know there are more but cant remember their names right now, but i bet  you guys can come  up with more names

Kowalkiewicz vs Jedrzejczyk is a fight that I will be waiting the most, For Woodley, Stephenson is a good matchup and he really deserve this titleshot. I got a problem with Robbie cause everyone that comes after a lose is kinda weak for him and Gastelum is after a win over Hendricks but its not bad idea. Rose Namajunas vs Calderwood-Andrade loser - I totally agree with you guys.

The Truth:


Rowsey will never fight again when Cyborg makes 136

SLC gets one of the worst Fight nights and the only reason bruce leroy is fighting in the main event is because he is entertaining which is a good thing.

I no longer watch wrastlers pretend to fight.

I say Jon Jones has been cheating since his win over shogun. he was pinpoint in that fight and if you watch the fight Rua taps at the end. at least one of JJ's  brothers has been suspended for cheating and i'm sure its a family affair.

No one wants to fight Yoel Romero b/c weidman rochkhold and bisping are scared of him

 Until they start taking instant points away from fighters who eyepoke on purpose (travis Browne , jon Jones etc etc) the sport will go down hill fast.

most people rather watch entertaining fights then technical fights. if i here the word the fight was a chess match it's guaranteed to be a boring fight

Nick diaz should fight robbie lawler and Bisping should fight henderson. more next time with the TRUTH
