Jon Bones Jones has been stripped of his UFC Light Heavyweight Title and suspended indefinitely for his role in a hit and run. Daniel Cormier is now facing Anthony Rumble Johnson for the vacant title at UFC 187 on May Long/Memorial Day Weekend. Crazy stuff.

called it lol

HughFreakingDillon

Crazy!

Indifference71

Rousey got absolutely dominated. Crazy.

igotid88

Ronda kept chasing her. Ronda even said it herself that's what Holly wanted. She went against her own gameplan

Big one tonight. I love McGregor. This guy acts like he's in WWE...he's great.

HughFreakingDillon

so McGregor is moving up to fight Dos Anjos for his belt without even defending his own. Then his manager says "after that warm up fight, he's gunning for Lawler's welterweight title". gimme a break. he's already looking past the guy who dominated Anthony Pettis for 5 rounds? And thinking he can beat Lawler? I love his moxy, but this is getting stupid.

HughFreakingDillon

Velasquez is out of the HW Belt. Stipe is in. Dana is probably super pissed at Cain's training team, who are injury-plagued when training.

McGregor and Holm lost?

HughFreakingDillon

yep.

McGregor moved up two weight classes and was too confident. Holm got caught when she would have won a decision. Jon Jones better come back strong and follow the law because Dana is running out of superstars.

to be fair, mcgregor is naturally a lightweight. he starves himself to the point of emaciation to cut weight to featherweight. but he should have predicted he'd be much slower and tire much quicker with an extra 20 pounds on. and that reach that diaz has is tough to beat at that weight. going for that takedown was pure desperation on conor's part (which he eve admitted) and he got caught. the guy was incredibly gracious and humble in defeat. a true classy competitor. he talks a lot of trash leading up to it, but even when he wins, he gives props to his opponent. his trash talk makes more money for everyone.

holm got lucky with ronda. if you look at all her past fights, they are lackluster decision wins. it wasn't a big surprise that tate won. can't wait for rousey to come back and smash tate. I can't stand how she has lost to rousey twice and still talks trash about her. just admit it, she's better than you are.

i predict jones will smash cormier. at least I hope he will.

Agree with all of that.

But I lost a lot of respect for rousey because yesterday she posted something talking trash about Holm. I thought that was unnecessary and disrespectful.

rgambs

Cody "No Love" Garbrandt graduated from my high school (approx 200 student graduating classes) a few years after I did. I didn't wrestle him but I was in the weight room with him a few times.
His neck tattoo is horrible, but he is out there throwing leather like a boss!
He could be a champion done day. I am really looking forward to his fight with Lineker, if he knocks Lineker out he is the real deal without question.

I can't find anything she said about Holm. link? I gotta admit, I didn't like how, when asked about the loss, she not once (to my knowledge) praised Holm. All she talked about was her mistakes. Kind of bugged me that she couldn't give Holm some praise for defeating her.

It must have been taken down because I can't find it either.

From what I remember, it said something similar to: people think Holm is a better fighter than Rousey, but Rousey defended her title six times and Holm didnt defend it once.

So basically she's talking trash to a person who demolished her but still has not proven she can beat Holm herself.

I can see what she means, though, to a point. it would be humble of her to just let sleeping dogs lie and give Holm her due, but at the same time, people are saying she's better than Ronda, which is debatable. that can't be determined until a) she's given Ronda a rematch, and/or b) she goes unbeaten and as dominant as Ronda was for so long. Which we now know won't happen. She lost to the person that Ronda demolished twice.

I think it's safe to say that Holm caught Rousey at a low point. That was her third title defense in a year. that's unheard of in MMA. not to mention all the outside commitments she had. again, no excuses, she should have concentrated on MMA alone. And maybe told Dana no at least once. But she didn't. she wanted to step up every time, and it cost her. But no matter who is the champ, I'd like to see a rematch of Holm and Rousey, which can happen.

a) if Tate's first defense is against Ronda, no matter who wins, should give the next shot to Holm
b) if Tate's first defense is against Holm, no matter who wins, should give the next shot to Ronda.

This is all assuming Ronda actually wants the belt back instead of just skipping MMA altogether and staying in Hollywood. If Ronda loses again to whomever, my thought is she'll retire.

Imagine the belt changing hands on three consecutive fights with no repeat winners. Too bad their are no battle royals in MMA haha.

I keep saying to my buddy who is still a WWE fan that they should have triple threat MMA fights. that would be awesome.

yeah, zingano was the last one to beat Tate I believe, so that fight also makes sense.
