epwar Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Have a strange feeling that someone in Rousey vs. Davis is going to get "injured" soon. UFC 177 on August 30 has no main event and not a single champ is available. Plus, THE EXPENDABLES 3 opens that month. We'll see. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading Yagin had suffered a serious brain injury. I guess the injury wasn't that serious, or Yagin is an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 They are very touchy about letting guys with various diagnosed brain conditions fight. Remember Brian Foster never fought in the UFC again even though his last fight was a win. It took Alves a long time to come back as well. UFC doctor Marcio Tanure has cleared Anderson Silva to begin sparring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Man, if you got your ass kicked that bad, I don't know if you should get an immediate rematch, regardless of Barao's streak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 They have two UFCs in Brazil left this year. It would be stupid to do Dillashaw vs. Barao II or Assuncao II anywhere else because it won't sell anywhere else. Ideally, it would be on television. So headlining the show in Brasilia with the BW title match and headlining the Rio show with JDS/Barnett and something else (Vitor vs. somebody) would be the best option. Otherwise, you're forced to do the HW fight to headline Brasilia and do the BW title fight as the Rio PPV main event. If you can, do Barao vs. Cruz in Brasilia and allow JDS to get healthy so you can do Dillashaw/Assuncao, Vitor/TBA, JDS/Barnett, Erick Silva's return fight, Warlley Alves vs. TBA as your main card. Have Cara do Sapato headline the prelim card. That's a perfectly feasible card compared to what they've been doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epwar Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 They need that fight to stay on UFC 175. But they oddly haven't been promoting it. If that move doesn't happen, what the hell could headline 177? Anything involving Dillashaw or Demitrious is way too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 There is nothing to promote. You're promoting Ronda Rousey. That's it. Alexis Davis is a boxing mandatory challenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 But yeah, Paulo Thiago is going to be cut with the swiftness after he loses his fight on the Brasilia show. He only signed a new deal to sell tickets on that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edwin Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Not that any of this actually matters. I saw you guys had added DEEP 67 IMPACT to your picks contest and I thought I'd let you guys know that the Nagakura/Lee was cancelled a couple of days ago due to a Lee injury. I put the full card up a couple of days ago on Tapology for those of you interested. The card will also feature WEC vet Kenji Osawa's retirement exhibition fight and ceremony. I can't post a link since I'm posting from my iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LethalStriker Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 It's helping Robbie Lawler. He lost a title fight and will have legitimately earn another shot at the title with the possiblity of winning the title all in the same calendar year. Fighters don't need 4-5 month training camps for every single fight they do as long as they're in shape at the time the camp starts. I highly doubt that Woodley ability to win the fight will have any bearing if its a 2 or a 4 month camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
