Bisping/GSP not happening now.  What a mess... it sucks for Bisping, as he'll miss out on the biggest pay-day of his career - but at least (hopefully) it will put an end to the "he's scared of Romero" BS. I actually agree with them not going ahead with the fight though, if GSP won't be ready until October/November... but why on earth wasn't all this sorted out before announcing the fight and doing the press-conference!?  |

Bisping/GSP not happening now. Sucks, but at least Yoel Romero gets the title shot now, which IMO should have been the title bout all along. If GSP does fight in UFC, let him fight someone of importance ...if he's not fighting for the MW title, then the biggest fights out there would be the LW title against McGregor (...which would be HUGE), the WW title against Woodley (...meh), or a superfight against Anderson Silva. |

Since Romero is getting his shot, i could see Silva vs GSP happening. Conor vs GSP would be great, but it'll face the same problem GSP vs Bisping got with GSP immediately getting a title shot. |

What a great fight Chase Sherman and Rashad Coulter put on, and what a great story they told in this fight. Rashad Coulter with a bad leg after the first round throwing bombs and staying in there. He did lose by KO in the second round, but what heart Coulter had tonight

He did lose by KO in the second round, but what heart Coulter had tonight I was so freakin hyped during that one. Awesome stuff from both men. Coulter was all heart in there after the 1st. Awesome drive. Both guys' stock just went up a bit tonight. Last four fights have all been great. |

I havent seen the Fight Pass fights and i missed the first prelim fight from FX cause i was coming home from work. I hope the PPV bouts can keep up. |

Unfortunate that the Alvarez vs Poitier fight ended in a no contest. And the streak of great fights ended with the first PPV fight. Im sure the other 4 will deliver

Looks like Demian Maia might get the next title shot at the Welterweight Title

Seriously very impressed.

UFC 211 was great. I did not expect the main event ending in 2:24. I expected it to end in 3 rounds. So happy Stipe retained the title. Im also glad Joanna retained the belt as well. Andrade is tough. I would want to see a rematch if Rose Namajuanas doesn't face Joanna next. Cant wait to see Woodley vs Maia when it happens.

Still wrapping my head around how good Joanna is; man - that was as good as it gets! Amazing stuff.

Unless his next defense is again cain, i just cant care. Also, joanna has now cleared out a division. Namajunas cant beat her. She is the most overrated strawweight out there. Beats up little girls like tecia, waterson and pvz. |

I got Nunes in the first by TKO.

Unless his next defense is again cain, i just cant care. ...the thing with Cain is he just seems to be so injury prone - he had the potential to be the greatest HW of all time (including Fedor), but injuries - and that loss to Werdum - have curtailed that. I'd still love to see Cain/Werdum 2 before he (Cain) fights for the title again... I feel there's unfinished business there. |

Nunes/Shevchenko for UFC 213. I got Nunes in the first by TKO in the first. Nunes won the first fight but she started to gas by the third round and Valentina easily won round 3. If Amanda's conditioning hasn't improved and Valentina can go the distance, I would favor Shevchenko by decision. Nunes has to get the finish by the 3rd round or she could be in for a long night. |

If Mark Hunt had beat Overeem, i would buy it, but i bet Dana will either have Cain Velasquez face Stipe next, or hotshot Francis Ngannou. You could be right about Hunt vs Lewis. Was it announced that that fight would be the title eliminator to face Stipe, or just a feeling you have? |
