Cyborg gonna look good here kinda getting a layup (yeah Spencer choked out Anderson but her record proves against top competition shes mediocre) i don't think she sticks around much longer tbh. Bellator, or One FC is her next stop. She's on the down slope of her career and i do believe the boss man when he says she doesnt want the Nunes rematch.

Cyborg carried the whole division on her back for years. She wants to get payed clearly they don't wanna pay her. They spin it as cyborg don't want the rematch. Dana already did that and cyborg said it's ********. This Spencer fight is the last fight on Cyborg contract. If she loses then her leverage is gone and the ufc spins Spencer as the new challenger. If she wins she has leverage cause her and Nunez are the division.

@tepid I think she'll do well where ever she ends up. Cyborg vs Nunez street fight in Brazil wrapped hands dipped in resin and broken glass.

This is the most random ass matched-up card in UFC history. These fights suck ass.

@bruce I'm pretty sure emperor Dana still decides everything even if he'd have us believe otherwise.

Dana doesn't decide anything anymore my friend. He's just a recognizable pawn put forth. Like the American President.



Guys like Sean "Im a helpless little child" Shelby are the ones cutting John Lineker and making these match-ups.

@MassaBruce I agree for a PPV this card is certainly lacking star power

Nothing on this card screams FOTN, but it should have a decent finish rate, maybe (hopefully) 75%.

agreed morelady. I've come around on it a bit, I still think the main is pointless but Neal  vs Price, and Pantoja vs Figeurido should be good scraps while they last. And y'know, we get to see Hakeem murder someone.

Predictions: 6 of 8 Winners, 2 Perfect, 365 Points   |   Tied for 1822nd

Lemos vs. Boser
Tanner Boser, TKO, R3
From what I've seen Lemos is slow and sluggish even for a HW. I think Boser has the speed and IQ to tire Lemos out and finish him late.

Lemos vs. Boser

Cyborg vs. Spencer
Cris Cyborg, TKO, R1
This fight will not go on the ground! Cyborg will stuff any takedown that Felicia attempts. Plus, Cyborg probably knows what to expect out of Felicia(a takedown). But Once Felicia gets hit by Cyborg a few times it’ll be over for her.
