I shoulda said Ceronne instead of Story, but I’ll take a risk and stick with Story.

You’re right I forgot about that well then the UFC had better pay him good otherwise he could end up in Bellator. They’ll grab him in a macro second, for sure.

Nothing wrong with picking Rick. I think Cowboy takes with win but I wouldn’t be surprised at Story win either.

The Lobov/Avila was low quality. Neither of them belong in the UFC.

In a side note: 3 dudes won Gold, Silver, and Bronze in the Women’s 800M. Semenya’s case is well known, but the Silver and Bronze winners (Niyonsaba and Wambui) are both under suspicion.

That fight was one of the most boring fights I have ever seen.

Definitely true that neither belong in the UFC, and I don’t think they belong in Bellator either.

That was a pitiful display.

I like McGregor even less than I like Diaz, and that’s saying something.
Therefore I guess I want a Diaz victory. ( Gulp)

It wasn’t this one for a few minutes. Mirgliota has no take down defense (LOL).

Rumble is a scary dude. If he can land something on you, you are out cold.

Now they’re killing time to fill up the PPV. 13 second fights really screw things up.
