 CrimsonChinGuru was thinking exactly same, haha. Saw fight announcement and was like: ''Yeah, RIP Hangman..'' 
But have to see, maybe he'll have something in his sleeves.

Reminder: They were suppose to fight back in march on Gane vs. Jones card already.

Whittaker vs. Du Plessis
Robert Whittaker, TKO, R1
The Reaper by Knock out or TKO. To beat Whittaker, you have to be elite. DDP has been fortunate and lucky in some of his fights. Going against subpar and aging fighters at the right time.

Lawler vs. Price
Niko Price, TKO, R1
Lawler is just too old and can't take the damage he used too. Not really high on Niko.

Hooker vs. Turner
Jalin Turner, TKO, R1
Turner is a phenom. Going to be in the top 10 for awhile.

If Brady doesn't pull out of this fight I will be very surprised. What a terrible comeback fight for him. What happened to luque?
