    Brunson said he isn't appealing his loss.

    As far as I know....Dallas is still in Texas and Texas has had a longer history of judging shenanigans than Brazil in MMA. It's still the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations Moreover, the crowds for non Rousey (or Tate) women's MMA fights at the top of the cards in UFC has been a mixed bag. I expect it to be an entertaining bout but it makes more sense to put it on the card in Brazil which is going to need more starpower (plus serving as insurance in case Aldo gets hurt) than to sandwich it in between two HW fights that are more likely to have quick finishes. Plus, Brazil really needs to have actual stars or potential stars on the card. Anderson might be on the card, but they need to focus on newer blood rather than recycling common faces they see all the time who won't be champions in the near future like Glover, Vitor, Shogun, etc. Unless Nunes chooses to fight Shevchenko on this card, it makes more sense to put the strawweight title fight on this card.

    With the way he looked against Maldonado and only training for 4-5 weeks, I'm not shocked that Mitrione is the slight betting favorite.

    A mini update is that Joanna said he isn't fighting in Dallas but that's what the promotion is working towards. It would probably make sense to have it in Rio the month after since Andrade is Brazilian.

    Looks like he is officially off the card.

    FWIW The final bout order isn't set yet. Michel Quinones only pulled out of his fight last night so I'm guessing they might find Volkanovski a late replacement opponent.

    I don't think she should retire because she's still competitive at a high level, but I do think she should evaluate her fighting style. I know she and Winkeljohn are very close, but it's always going come down to what she didn't do. I mean last night, she was clinching Germaine against the cage when her corner was screaming bloody murder trying to get her disengage. Then, in the post-fight presser, she was down on herself and felt like she should have knocked her out. The problem when you have a boom or bust style where you can point fight and win wide on the cards or only have a few notable moments and lose a fight is you increase the chances of continuing this mediocre stretch. Yeah, I believe she can beat several fighters at BW and probably score a decent finish somewhere in there, but she needs way more consistency when it comes to big fights. I don't think that's going to come using the same style Wink helped her develop over the years. Maybe she should work with someone like Brandon Gibson for a fight or two or experiment by heading to a camp outside of ABQ for a change. Duane Ludwig isn't far from there. It's makes no sense to have an all-star cast in your corner if you're going to fight the same way everytime out.

    Well, it's orthodox vs. southpaw. The best weapon against a southpaw is a straight right hand, and that's GdR's best punch.

    It's his unless Rockhold feels like he wants to fight again. I can see them trying to remake that fight again. However, they gotta get Bisping vs. Romero done first. They have main events for April, May, and June. Hopefully, they can get that in before July until Jacare isn't out to October/November.

    Don't worry. The trolling posts won't be tolerated.

    Well, Howard Jacobs feels like they do since normally they would get a straight up denial (for a retroactive TUE) instead of additional questions about Cyborg's treatment. Whether they get it or not, I dunno since that info request doesn't necessarily mean she's off scott free. Also, it's weird that 205 had Big John and Miragliotta in the main and co-main and 208 had Todd Anderson and Yves Lavigne.
