Tate v Nunes Interesting match-up, not for a co main though Velasquez v Browne Velasquez is past his prime IMO, not too much interest but will watch in the hope that Browne gets destroyed Hendricks v Gastelum Can they make weight? USADA era Hendricks has been muck Mouassi v Brunson Looking forward to this fight DC and Jones will be a good fight but it just about had my attention with Conor on the card tbh. They should have had DC and Jones and Conor and Diaz as a co main. Right now it's a decent card but I expected much more from UFC 200. What happened to Dana saying he had another co main event to announce that would blow our minds?

Cormier Jones 2 is a real rematch. I don't think removing Conor makes it better. I'm not a fan of the Diaz rematch but the solution to that problem, imo, was to make Conor defend his title. I'd have been excited for UFC 200 if Conor had actually retired too, because then Aldo and Edgar could fight for the actual title instead of this interim crap.

Throwing the kitchen sink at your opponent without worrying him then getting punched so hard you have to panic wrestle and get tapped out because you don't have the wherewithal to defend it after the aforementioned punch is pretty conclusive.
JustShon wrote: » I accept your point, but I think McGregor could've done a better job, could've fought smarter and at the very least could've made that fight closer. I think taking the rematch so soon was jumping the gun, and also unfair to those in featherweight who want a chance at the belt, but I'd like to see the Diaz rematch down the line. Not now.

I highly doubt Conor can repeat his 13 second knockout and I'd love to see a longer fight between the two of them. I'd still like to see Conor win but I'd like to see Aldo give him a good kicking in the process.

To have it slowly unravel that it was basically a lie, wasn't very nice. It would be nice to have some sort of explanation, especially considering the money I've spent going over to Vegas, this was due to be my fourth trip in 12 months.
