The MW and HW champs are Michael Bisping and Stepe Miocic

That's a thing

We might not have a clearer example of a fighter just completely looking past his opponent and paying for it.

Wow. Didn't see that coming. Won a little over 6 units thanks to the Bisping TKO, Rockhold/ Bisping Under, and Cruz decision.

Who's next for Bisping? Just hope it isn't Rockhold.

Seems super likely to be ChrisW then we get Chris/Luke thereafter.

I suppose it's possible they do Silva v. Bisping II and try to play off the "controversy" of the last fight and try to give Silva the belt again for at least one more big money show, but that's pretty out there.

it is a little rustling bisping is UFC MW champ, dude was always UFC's goldenboy getting some #1 contender shots he probably didn't deserve and always got some easy home fight whenever he needed a win.

Bisping gonna be a dog whoever he fights next I'd expect but still lol rockhold, god fighters are dumb. Guess you'd have to be to get hit in the head that much.

Can't see silva, been forever since he's won, even for lol UFC matchmaking that's a bit farfetched. Hendo would be a $ fight too, but he prob doesn't deserve it either. (also isn't under contract technically atm)

Always though Bisping was a complete tool, but hard to watch that and not feel happy for the guy.

Can't blame Rockhold, he was probably swimming in so much pussy he had no energy left for any other cardio training.

wow did not expect Rockhold to lose. Was thinking of betting on it too. Exactly what I thought might happen, Bisping gets lucky.

Im a WWE guy so Brock returning is huge. Maybe not huge in the grand scheme of things but huge in my interest for the show. Being from Ireland the card took a big knock for me when McGregor was pulled but in terms of willing to fork out the money for the PPV Brock makes up for it.

About tonights card. I always found myself rooting for Bisping. Happy he won and like he said Rockhold got KO'd so will likely be suspended for a few months. I think UFC will have Bisping vs Weidman the next fight and have it headline the first UFC fight in New York which i think is due some time in November.

Think they'll make his first defense on Weidman's home turf? I was thinking Jacare gets the first fight and Weidman Rockhold rematch at MSG for first contender.

Welp its June, which means 4 months till November and considering no champ has ever defended a belt twice in that time span I'm gonna go ahead and say this is a terrible/impossible theory

UFC banned Ariel Helwani for life for breaking the Brock News before they had the chance. Huge douche move.

How do you ban him for life? Just never give him press credentials?

Seems like that won't last.

He tweeted that he was escorted out of the building last night by security, they took his credentials and told him he was banned for life.

Hes the only UFC reporter i know by name so seems like a bad move to ban him for doing his job.

yeah only other 1 I know is Iole but he got his start in boxing.
The MMA Thread Quote
06-05-2016 , 02:09 PM
Jordan Breen, Luke Thomas, Josh Gross, and Ben Fowlkes are prbly the other most prominent ones

Iole is horrible - I know you're just saying you know of him

this is pretty inside baseball but it's crazy that they're banning Esther Lin too because of her association with Ariel. She's the best and most well known MMA photographer. She's the one who took this:



Now she REALLY can't do her job.

i expect these suspensions will last about as long as Conor's retirement, once whoever Dana answers to tells him to stop being a complete ****ing ******* for 2 minutes

also, lol Brock!
does anyone care about this anyway?
