Lol ! Almost all of the card is now TBA. 6 hours ago there were fighters… About John Cena - I guess this page was edited by someone and I was happy to the edited version of it Cheesy

Next time I'd better make a print screen of it. Is there an option to see all the changes on a particular wiki page?

^  WAAAIIT!  John Cena the wrestler?  Lolol.  I was aware that Edwards was out cos it was impossible for him to make the trip from Birmingham...  But John Cena?  Somebody pinch me.  Cheesy
I see colby covington as the contender.

Interesting match, but looks more as an entertainment match between pro wrestler John Cena and MMA fighter.

Some good fights in empty arena.
Kevin Lee was maybe better or equal in main event but one mistake cost him a lot and he lost.

I must say that this was quite a boring event. I guess that empty tribunes spoiled everything and the fighters decided not to give everything out.
On Burns vs Maia, I agree on you that it was boring simply due to "one shot, one kill" of Burns Shocked. I never expected that Maia will be knocked out so fast. While on the other hand, in all fairness I'm entertained with the showcase of grappling and wrestling of Oliveira as well as Lee.

By the way, what's wrong with Lee? Why it seems that he can't accept the fact that he tapped out. All of us will agree on one thing for sure — he clearly and cleanly tapped. So as a result of wrong attitude, memes about him are spreading lol Grin.

Current UfC Fight Night 170 was held behind closed doors.
There were no spectators, but the event was aired on ppv. Right decision, as fighters had a camp and prepared hard for the event.

Two main fights of FN170 (Lee vs Oliveira, Maia vs Burns) got bonus award. Everything as expected. Other fights... all by decision.

I am amazed that UFC is on now, when most of sport events are suspended because of virus situation.
Lee also missed weight, but main event is on.
The fight is conducted in empty stadiums and Dana White is adamant that he will carry on with the events and MMA is the only sporting event that is going on even at the expense of conducting the fights in empty stadiums. The biggest problem is how they will conduct Nurmagomedov vs Ferguson next month if the situation gets worse and for fight fans it will be another disappointment as they will be the unluckiest match up in MMA history.

Here are the weigh ins guys.  Kevin Lee missed weight.  I think he's like one of the fighters who has missed weight a lot in the past.  Lol.
I feel bad for him and can't help but to think that he might feel uncomfortable due to that 2.5 pound gap. I'm not rooting for him anyway so good luck for both of them. I'm just hoping that their fight will be very explosive for us to still enjoy at home because the hype already lose right due to no audience match.

By the way, look on Al Iaquita's post on Twitter Grin. I just find it funny lol. Here's the article: https://www.bjpenn.com/mma-news/ufc/al-iaquinta-disappointed-in-his-son-kevin-lee-for-missing-weight-at-ufc-brasilia/?amp

I reckon Dana might be shaking his head vigorously because Khabib versus El Cucuy might be at risk to be cancelled again hehehe.

Hope Dana would forbit Khabib to leave US and travel home (for example to visit relatives) before the fight. As his flight my go through countries that a restricted to visit or will have a chance to caught something on the plane.

Even if the fans would not be able to enter the arena, there is a little chance that they make their event PPV only. Maybe reduce PPV subscription price, maybe add more fights to card.

This guy (Kevin Lee) could be one of the most improved fighters in the UFC in the coming years.  He's athletic af and has started training at Tristar under Firas Zahabi during the match below...  Enjoy!  Wink

Here's a hilarious one...  So you guys know Adesanya has been saying that Costa is some sort of idiot gorilla, right?  I think he called him something like 'Moronus Buffoonus'.  At first I was like 'wtf' til I saw this vid.

Israel Adesanya VS Yoel Romero is not a fun fight but Still, Adesanya won the fight so I am not that disappointed not with the result, but yeah Yoel Romero I don't know if he is just playing around or that is really his fighting style with Adesanya but I am through with that, and moving on with Fight Night 170, but I am really most excited with the UFC 249 and will be waiting for it to really happen.

@notblox1. Star Trek fans will understand what Weili made of Joanna's head after the fight hehehe.



It also appears that uncle Dana has taken the opportunity to create a new storyboard about Paulo Costa after the boring main event hehe.

The fight between Weili Zhang and Joanna Jedrzejczyk should be the main event. In my opinion and opinions of other people it was the best fight not only at this event but also throughout the history of the female MMA. Both girls showed a huge heart to fight and this picture of Joanna says more than 1000 words.

On one hand this event (and few following) can be an event just to fill the gap between Adesanya belt fight and Khabibs fight, but on the other, this event is in Brasil and lots of fighters are from the, this can be a KO/bloody night. If only the fighters wish to remind what Brazilian Valetudo was.

Mate I'm not a Star Trek fan but it really makes me cringe every time I saw her face (now even more since you don't resized the pic lol Grin). I know Zhang got also a damged face but she got worse. She's now a bubble head.
It also appears that uncle Dana has taken the opportunity to create a new storyboard about Paulo Costa after the boring main event hehe.
He definitely should. You know what, I think it's always a good idea to matched up fighters which really hate each other because that's where the heat and intensity of every fight came from. If I were Dana, I will set Costa vs Adesanya now and let them settle their trashtalking inside the octagon Grin. Besides, it will benefit him because for sure it will catch a lot of attention from UFC fans all over the world.
