It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?



Anderson will win and make it look easy and I still won't be confident Anderson is half the fighter he was before the Weidman fights, because it is Nick Diaz

Yeah the main card is actually very strong overall excepting maybe Leites Boetsch, but there's still enough possibility there for a cool finish that I'm not dreading it. The undercard is significantly less strong but there are a few solid or fun fights on there. McCall Lineker might be good, Brandao Hettes will either end spectacularly in the first four minutes or be a hilarious pile of poo poo. This is the card we deserve in 2015.

If the weakest fight on the main is Leites/Boetsch the card is in excellent shape because that's a pretty good fight

My heart of hearts wants to believe this but I've been burned by them both too many times to say it out loud. Though it's probably easier to blame the Hermans and Philippous for bad fights than it is the Boetsches and Leiteses...

Kelvin-Woodley and Lauzon-Iaquinta would be locks for Fight of the Night on any other card, so I'm interested to see how the bonuses shake out. I think Silva gets PotN but that fight is not going to last very long or be as fun as some people think, I bravely predict.

What's crazy to me is Kelvin struggled to make weight on the show, at middleweight. He even had Jimmy Quinlan read him bedtime stories to distract him from his near-death experience.

I wish he was more disciplined about neutrition.

I'm in a Hooters right now trying to watch the fights with my people and have a good time, and we're next to a table of juggalos who keep saying their favorite fighters are Anderson Sylvia and Clay Gwyda and it was bullshit when that Weedman guy knocked him out

And it's a drat shame cuz this card is great

Clay Guida out of all the popular fighters nowadays?

When I heard Sylvia and assumed he meant Tim and that made sense, he likes a fighter who also looks like he does meth in a shack, but no he just can't pronounce Silva
