The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

Wow I knew 208 might get another name but not sure about that one. Could be entertaining though, hope Silva can give us one highlight ko.
 
Anderson Silva vs Derek Brunson official for UFC 208 Brooklyn. Let's see if Brunson puts his head down and charge forward wildly like he did when he got KOed by Whittaker.

the lack of stars to headline is catching up to ufc. i know there injuries/suspensions/etc, but if ufc 208 in brooklyn is really going to be headline by holm coming off of two losses vs a woman most casual fans haven't even heard of :x

Starting to see the effect of Joe Silva leaving. We just got championship fights announce this week. I could have lived with one of those title fights being on 208
 
So Nick has now turned down Lawler and a title fight with Woodley.

Who the **** is he expecting to fight for more money than them?

GSP would be the only thing left/
 
Nick turned down a title fight? Where's the folks saying Dana wouldn't give him an instant shot..

Nick is probably just holding out for more money, he gives a damn about a belt lol

Good for him

Like I said, UFC will be hurting for money fights. Make Dana open up his wallet while you can. Gsp nick etc can all eat if they hold out long enough. This is also why Maia can easily get skipped if push comes to shove

crazy that he got a title shot for his first fight back and turned it down
I don't know what money fight he wants
Win the belt then you can call your own shots man
Weird
 
I don't think the ufc offered Nick the title fight. T wood said he challenged Nick and nick declined him
 
Wow @ turning down a title fight, wonder how much they offered him. I don't think he'll get (or deserve) the supposed 10 mil that Nate got vs. Conor to fight anybody. I'd be surprised if he even breaks 1 mil to be honest, he's been gone for awhile and hasn't put in a great performance since the BJ fight 6 years ago.
 
Right now, money fights are all the rage. Match making logic gets thrown out the window. At this rate, Ronda will be fighting for the 145lb belt, and Maia, Jacare and Dillashaw will never get a title shot :lol
 
I believe I heard Nick say he's making like a half million dollars a year doing signings, seminars, clubs, etc. he's pretty much done with fighting unless it's a massive payday.

I get that sense from nick too. Like going into the Anderson fight I kinda viewed them as both on their way out of the sport

Nick hasn't been very vocal about fighting. When you hear Gsp always in interviews talking about a come back it just makes you wonder what mindset nick is in. Nick is way more out there as a crazy person than nate is
 
Rewatched Penn vs Sanchez.

My goodness that might have been the nastiest cut I've ever seen.
 
I'll take Yair tomorrow in the 2nd round maybe 3rd. Just hoping for a good fight honestly. Dana taking it to a dangerous level w conor throwing out a number like 25mil. Once again conor has both ufc and mayweather by the balls.
 
I don't think he has any leverage against floyd. floyd is the one everyone calls out because he'll make them rich.
 
If that's the case why is Floyd saying Conor is the only person he'd come out of retirement to fight, :lol

Floyd is just trying to keep his name in the news, that's all.
 
Weird watching countdown and seeing penn train at jack-wink gym with diego.
 
Didn't look like it. Looked like penn would just visit him at the rvca gym in cali to train his boxing. The show labeled him as his boxing coach / boxing trainer.

How much time does Chad Mendes have left on his suspension? Any word as to what he's been up to?
