Is aljo vs TJ the main event? Wasn’t Jon jones vs stipe supposed to be the main event?

It’s likely sept 24, the second ppv in September (yes, the ufc is doing two in a month. Also doing the same in July)

I think with how long he’s said he’s going to come back, he’s gotta come back at least once. it would look pretty bad if he never came back now, after stringing us and the ufc along for two years

Predictions: 6 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 400 Points   |   Tied for 2804th

Sterling vs. Dillashaw
Aljamain Sterling, DEC
Sterling wins by being the superior grappler.

I do believe this is a worse matchup for Sterling. While I do believe Petr is the best striker in the division, his ground game isn’t as good as Dillashaw’s. TJ has never been subbed and when he does get taken down he pops right back up, he’s never been controlled longer than 33 seconds in his whole career and has a 86% percent td defense throughout his career. Petr has 90% but the difference will be that if Dillashaw gets taken down he will pop right back up

Sterling was also lucky that he got that decision imo. That’s neither here nor there though, I’m glad this fight is happening

According to sterling he hasn't agreed to the fight unless there is a pay bump in his contract. Petr Yan ruined the division by kneeing sterling in the head illegally!

Yan also did lose the rematch, Aljamain is the best batamweight in the world now


Also people ***** about fighter not getting paid more, then ***** when their trying to get paid more, it just doesn’t make sense, people *****ing about both thing happening is so stupid,

I can see TJ winning TBH. He has the counter wrestling and striking to make it happen.

The thing is that he only look like a “*****” to pee brain ****witz, Sterling went into a cage half nude with Petr Yan twice, and won one, he’s more alpha than 99% of the population, he’s not scared to fight anyone, the fight would most likely still happen as it at least 4 month away, and worst case it move to 280

I think it a good thing Sterling is fighting to get paid more, that what he’s they’re to do, get paid. And with how badly some MMA fan treat him, I wouldn’t care what the fan think, all I care about is getting paid

The thing is skill doesn't necessarily translate into greater market participation--that is, being really good is no guarantee of big PPV sales. 

Mcgregor really isn't that great and is probably still the biggest draw in UFC.  He's not really worth more money TBH--just from a cost/benefit perspective.

I can't really get excited about AJ.I doubt I'm alone in that preference. It's not really his fault. He's a great fighter. I just find his performances dull.

It's easy to say "get paid" behind the computer. 

Try making your own promotion if you dont like it
