Fear the Fighter still hasn't paid John Dodson for his fight at UFC 172. July probably can't come sooner for some of these dudes.

Looking at how they made some of these likely to be put on Fight Pass prelims, I am thinking a few of the losers may get a ticket to Invicta. The UFC still doesn't book a ton of female fights (probably because 135 is still pretty pedestrian outside a handful). They probably want to bolster the division, but most of the good fights can be easily made. So what's the point of keeping Angela Hill around just to be on the roster?

Okay, thank you for clarifying. You broke my brain for a second there.

If someone's inane post magically disappears, you know what happened. Say hey to quality control, folks.

.

Conor McGregor is getting pub partly on the basis people keep calling him out. Random featherweights and lightweights just tweeting random babble that somehow gets picked up by Bloody Elbow, F4W, and the like. You don't think that's helping the UFC and his own individual brand? Come the fuck on.

....Like they weren't going to do that anyway? Hint: The UFC don't give a shit

He ain't fighting GSP. If GSP ever decides to come back, he is fighting for the belt or against ole Andy Silva if he is still around.

April/May 2015 is going to be even sadder. Just wait.

They'll find someone for him to beat on PPV. I have a bad feeling that the guy they put him in the ring will be less of a tomato can and more of a guy looking to put his name in the hunt by knocking out someone with a reputation. See: Kimbo Slice vs. Seth Petruzelli Mirko Crocop vs. Gabriel Gonzaga Now, whether or not Punk can turn a bad loss into a career like Brock did by meathooking Frank Mir into a pulp remains to be seen. ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER! JT, don't make me bring out Martin Baker

No shit

It's almost like.....he isn't doing this to compete for and/or win a UFC belt. I thought I was going to have to bust out the Martin Baker pic again. Actually, I was really hoping I would. Anyone who doesn't see this as a Herschel Walker ambassador to the sport role is really deluding themselves (Non-MMA and MMA fans alike). This was the role Chael was suppose to have before he ultimately did himself the disservice of getting caught again. I guess since Chael couldn't have it, he decided to pick someone for it. Punk will fight 3-5 fights maybe and then slide into a cushy job at Fox during or after those fights. If he is actually half decent and decides to do more, good for him. If he is not, then he has a job in LA waiting for him as an analyst. Either way, he is getting fucking paid and doesn't have to deal with any type of politics.

This is gonna be glorious when I wake up tomorrow.

WWE brass won't be happy AJ is taking prom pictures at UFC events

Ben Askren is getting that Asian money mark dough right now. LET FUNKY BEN GET HIS MONEY UP!

For those still up, Punk is on FS1 right now

Mike Bohn ‏@MikeBohnMMA 2m2 minutes ago Dana White tells @ArielHelwani on FS1 that Rory MacDonald's title shot isn't for sure, say Hendricks-Lawler 3 "wouldn't be a bad idea"

I like how basically no one has talked about possible KO and submission of the year candidates. Eddie Gordon and Ashlee Evans-Smith both got sent to beddy bye land.

Glenn Trowbridge....bad at judging MMA AND boxing. What a duel threat.

Well he can still fight before July 11. After that he will be all Reebok'd up.

I feel CM Punk fighting in the UFC welterweight division before Askren is like Dana's greatest troll job on Ben Askren yet.

Speaking of the TUF 115lb. girls, presumed favorite Ms. Carla Esparza

Probably lower tier cards in Cali. Nevada has an old boys (and girls) network of bad judges.
