TheVileOne Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Your UFC Glasgow main event is Michael Bisping vs. Thales Leites with the co-main event being Ross Pearson vs. Evan Dunham. Decent fights for Fight Pass card. Leites actually has been looking good lately, 5-0 with three straight finishes. Dunham coming off a win, but he's a far cry from his days when it looked like he was going to take over the division. Still, not a bad match-up with Pearson.

doubtingELDANDY Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 UFC 188 is a little over two weeks away, and I have yet to see any promotion. You would think the Heavyweight division would be top priority. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 UFC 188 is a little over two weeks away, and I have yet to see any promotion. You would think the Heavyweight division would be top priority. I The PPV ads rarely intersect. So with 187 out of the way, they're going to be promoting 188 (and 189 with the commercials they spent money on). Plus, they got two FS1 cards back-to-back so there will be PPV promotion on those two shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 Jeremy Botter @jeremybotter 19s . @jagatt tells me she’s spoken with both Dana White and Sean Shelby recently, and she’s in talks with the UFC. EDIT: Jeremy Botter @jeremybotter 4m Correction: Dana left @jagatt a voicemail, but she spoke with Shelby. Wants all fans who want to see her in the UFC to speak up. Jeremy Botter @jeremybotter 9m So, if you want to see @jagatt in the UFC, tweet Dana and @ufc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 That probably means they aren't enthused by her fights. Then again, they signed Sarah Kaufman and a relatively green Sara McMann so why the fuck not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That's a big disappointing. Jessica Aguilar seems like a great acquisition for a growing division at the moment, not to mention she's a potential instant contender for Joanna Jedrzejczyk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 UFC Tonight news: Rafael Dos Anjos is targeting a return in December Raphael Assuncao is 100% and willing to step in as a replacement for 7/25 if either Barao or Dillashaw pull out Cat Zingano and Aljamain Sterling (hernia) are planning to return in the fall. They were targeting Zingano vs. McMann for 7/15, but McMann is willing to fight anyone now that Zingano is out. Julianna Pena wants to fight Zingano, but I'm safely assuming she will fight before Cat comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 Re: UFC 188 Promotion The ads have started running on FS1 and ends with Brock getting punched in the head and falling down. Also, the tagline is "There Can Only Be One". That's right...Cain Velasquez is the Highlander. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ligerbusa Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I went to my first MMA show last night, Elite1 "Annihilation". The show was two hours, the total combined time of all seven nights was eight minutes and seventeen seconds. Tickets were $50 for GA and over $100 for floor/table seats and they had a really good crowd. Another group is running here late June with floor seats at $50. So it looks like MMA is going to be a thing here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 The UFC cut a bunch of people: Rocky Lee, Shane Howell, Alp Ozkilic, Vik Grujic, Shayna Baszler, Dylan Andrews, Louis Gaudinot, Tim Elliott, Tateki Matsuda, and Alex Torres Not seeing many people capable of returning. Maybe Gaudinot and Elliott because flyweight is still pretty thin at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 They should've kept Elliott because his fights are pretty fun. I am disappointed Ryan Jimmo is still on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 She would have better luck in ROH or PWG or whatever indy she wants to moonlight as a pro wrestling valet with. I dunno why she would want to sign up for more beatings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 She should be a wrestling valet but we both know she wants to keep fighting. If she took a fight maybe...every nine months between wrestling, there would be nothing wrong with that. However, she has to got realize that this ain't turning around. It will only get worse. If someone like Veronica Rothenhausler had to retire due to concussions and brain injuries, I can't imagine what someone like Baszler who has been in three or four times longer has been through. Shayna has taken some beatings, and those were the ones we saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
