I had forgotten the card was this weekend but reading that write-up I'm super pumped. The entire main card looks fantastic.

The card looks great, I'm excited for most of the fights and really can't point to one that seems like it would be bad on paper. Thanks for writing that up Carl!

First off, thanks, glad y'all liked it. Second, the UFC is in a weird holding pattern right now where most of the fight nights are, uh, lamentable, but the PPVs scheduled for the year thus far are pretty stacked. 298 this weekend rules and UFC 299 next month has O'Malley/Chito, Poirier/Saint-Denis, Holland/MVP, Burns/Maddalena, Yan/Yadong and Gamrot/RDA on it, which also rules, and while the main event of UFC 300 is still up in the air the card is about as balls-out as the company is capable of being. But aside from Moreno/Royval 2 + Yair/Ortega 2 next weekend, the TV cards for the next few couple months are, like, Jairzinho Rozenstruik vs Shamil Gaziev, Tai Tuivasa vs Marcin Tybura and Amanda Ribas vs Rose Namajunas. And those are the main events, so you can extrapolate what the rest of the cards are like. It's not great.

Luke Thomas had an interesting interview with Dom Cruz. They were talking about judging and Dom said if someone gets cut it is a 10-8 round  e: here is a clip https://www.reddit.com/r/MorningKombat/comments/1are6iq/glad_luke_asked_this_question_dom_really_doubled/

I think Zhang vs xiaonan is the most excited I've been for a fight in a long time. I hope nothing goes wrong and it happens.

I think it's unfair that I finally started to like Volk right when he started getting whomped in fights (as I suspect will happen again on Saturday)

Volk clearly recently saw "the Prestige" and took the message about commitment, if you really want to pull off your act, to heart.

UFC newz: Lima vs Tafa off due to injury Oban Elliott vs Val Woodburn in jeopardy because Oban's coach claims they thought the fight was at 185, not 170. Says Oban is around 198 this morning (this could be a poor attempt at a joke and I have been bamboozled) e: i was bamboozled, as both guys made weight LobsterMobster fucked around with this message at 18:25 on Feb 16, 2024 |

The UFC is also scouting for a smaller, younger Tafa to replace Junior should he be unable to compete, a Baby Tafa or perhaps Micro Tafa

This closes the Tafa Circle. Junior was supposed to fight Austen Lane and Justin had to do it in his stead, now the debt is repaid.
