    Main Card (Fox Sports 1)

    Middleweight: Ronaldo Souza vs. Gegard Mousasi
    Heavyweight: Alistair Overeem vs. Ben Rothwell
    Heavyweight: Matt Mitrione vs. Derrick Lewis
    Lightweight: Joe Lauzon vs. Michael Chiesa
    Featherweight: Nik Lentz vs. Charles Oliveira
    Flyweight: John Moraga vs. Justin Scoggins

    Preliminary card (Fox Sports 1)

    Lightweight: Al Iaquinta vs. Rodrigo Damm
    Middleweight: Rafael Natal vs. Chris Camozzi
    Bantamweight: Tateki Matsuda vs. Chris Beal
    Featherweight: Sean Soriano vs. Chas Skelly



    Cant wait for this one, would have happily accepted this instead of 177 as a PPV. This really is a very solid card! Really looking forward to the main event, Hopefully Jacare gets the job done im dying to see him fight Weidman! The two heavyweight bouts should be class, If the Reem manages to win he cant dodge JDS again which i assume will be his next fight. I think Chiesa will have to much for Joe who seems to be on a bit of a downward spiral even if he did win his last fight. Moraga if he wins will be back in the mix for a title shot i would assume? Should be another quality fight. Undercard is fairly solid to.

    Really looking forward to this one :D:D

    Wish that was true, have been dying to see JDS put Reem in his place for years now. But Reem is currently walking around at 210 lbs. My guess is, win or lose, he's going down to LHW after this one

    Really looking forward to seeing Chris Beal fight again. Was very impressive against Patrick Williams with a lovely flying knee. Certainly one to keep an eye on.

    Really? Where did you get that.
    If he is 210 currently, he is smaller than the entire LHW roster, and probably similar to many MWs.

    I've a feeling he was trolling if he said that.

    Some different from when he peaked on the roids, absolute animal size.

    Wouldnt surprise me if he was 210 in them pictures actually on second look. Especially comparing him to cerrone.

    The look on Joes face says it all about this picture :pac: I actually like Reem if he could drop to 205 there would be some good matchups there for him!

    I very much doubt that he's 210 there. He looks way bigger than a typical MW. We'll see on the scales.
    An over under bet would be interesting.

    I'd say he's about 232lbs


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 263 ✭✭Locomotion


    If he went down to 205, he could fight Rumble Johnson next. The two of them have been name calling all week

    Not really, middleweights would be cutting from 210. It's extremely unlikely he's 210.

    Yeah i know but still if you were 210 lbs of pure muscle you d still look fairly big its far from small

    Yeah it's definitely not small for a typical person. That's like 95kg, most people that weight are just fat. The one that's are lean stand out as muscular.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,159 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    Alistair Overeem 248lbs
    Lol at people thinking he was anything like 210.

    If Oliveria really did have a viral infection and thats why he missed weight then Lentz on points @3.40 looks great value.

    You think it might not be true?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭p to the e


    Mousasi is a massive underdog going into this fight according to Paddy Power. Might have me some of that.

    Well it's not the first time he's missed weight so you never know, seems like a great price anyway for a Lentz points win.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,541 ✭✭✭Davei141


    Oliviera out of the fight against Lentz, sucks big time was really looking forward to that. So much disappointment within the last few weeks UFC-wise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    This really ****s up my bets :(

    Lots of complaining on twitter from fighters about how many fights have been scraped lately due to injuries. In reality theres just to many cards being put on, but more $$$ in the UFCs pockets!


  • Registered Users Posts: 133 ✭✭Bane


    What time do ye think the main event will start about? The usual? Around 5+am?
