Looking forward to seeing Joanna murder another TUF winner.

It never gets old, does it? ;-)

I don't think Joanna fights the winner of this until the eventual winner has a few title defenses or the division kinda unfolds to reveal who is truly the best of that current crop. There is no point in Joanna moving up for a title that has no value yet.

Very few people are holding on to a UFC roster spot like Jessica Eye with the tightest of grips. How in the hell are there people on the roster who were signed to the UFC months or years prior to the Reebok uniform change but don't have a UFC win in the two year span that it has been implemented?

Yeah, but she made someone's ear explode once.

That was also the same card that Humberto Brown crapped himself so there were multiple explosions on that show.

Good God. I hope he can sort out his health issues and find something he enjoys doing. Always enjoyed his fights and his personality. Scary to read him talk about similarities with Benoit.

The bout agreements for Bisping vs. GSP have been signed so that is officially the main event of UFC 217.

As a result, that pretty much pushes a potential Cyborg vs. Holm fight to UFC 219 because Cyborg doesn't want to share Jason Parillo doing double duty cornering Bisping. So if there is a third title fight slotted for that show, it's probably going to be Joanna vs. Rose or maybe Ferguson/Khabib for an interim LW title.

RIZIN has announced some fights for their upcoming card in October. They're kicking off their WMMA super atomweight tournament and they already announced RENA vs. Andy Nguyen (she beat Miyuu Yamamoto at one of the past events and she's a former KOTC champ; title which she lost some weeks ago), Miyuu Yamamoto vs. TBA and the winner of Saori Ishioka vs. Kanna Asakura at DEEP JEWELS 17 vs. TBA to round out the tournament fights announced so far for the women.

Bantamweight King of Pancrase Shintaro Ishiwatari vs. TBA in the bantamweight tournament that kicked off in their last show.

Dan Henderson and Kazushi Sakuraba will face each other in a grappling match.

Plus the ad also has Tenshin Nasukawa, Erson Yamamoto, Shinju Nozawa Auclair and Tatsuya Kawajiri.
