Haha ok so aparantly they recalled it the day before to a 195 catch weight, and AJ tweeted that he made weight "fine" like 195 was the agreed on weight the whole time... expect:

Johnson has agreed to give Branch $4,000 of his scheduled purse for the fight for Branch to agree to accept the fight, which Branch has, and the fight remains the main event for tomorrow night's event. Branch officially weighed in at 189.2 pounds for the fight, which will now be a 195-pound catchweight main event.

Rumble isn't getting back to the ufc.

Not really. There was some article awhile back where he picked a bunch of underdogs and they all ended up winning. So he got this reputation of being great at picks.

But what most people didn't mention is that all of them were guys who trained/had affiliation with couture.

That's pretty much how most of his picks go. He simply picks guys who he's trained with before or has had some type of connection with.

Mir is a vegas guy just like Randy, and I think they trained together in the passed.

This is MMA and anything can happen, and I'm wrong all the time. But I don't see how Mir's chances are anything but very slim.

i honestly think mir has no equity winning, the line should be like -900 dos santos. He got outboxed by big nog whos miles behind dos santos, combined with pretty bad mma wrestling (i don't thin ive ever seen mir get a td i was impressed with, theres no way he shoots a power single or double that gets jds, hes just too slow). Hes gotta be super overrated now after that sick kimura on big nog, people quickly forget that hes even older and probably worse now than the Mir that looked like trash against crocop and roy nelson, 2 very underwhelming figthers.

He'll jsut shoot or stab him tho cause Frank never goes anywhere without a gun AND a knife.

[KPowers]

What about a gun that shoots knives

OR

a knife that stabs bullets

let's just all agree to be thankful that he uses his strength for the betterment of mankind.

that made me think of the irony that in the us you can have a blank charge shoot a knife...no problem...perfectly legal

if you have that knife propelled by a spring...you are going to prison son...true story

how surreal is that?

I own a Microtech full automatic "switchblade" knife. I bought it in a store in AZ.
It's only illegal in some states. For example it's legal to have in CT as long as you don't let it leave your property. In AZ you can bring that anywhere.



Thing's sweet, double sided blade, all ti hardware and a skullcrusher on the end.

I still couldn't take Rousey with it, though.
