Excited about an upcoming fight? Want to make predictions, or just give people a heads-up that there are some fights on? We can do it here.

(Also a good place to complain, dicuss, and agrue about the outcomes)

Part of the reason this card was so insane was because the Lawler fight was also on it. It wasn't just the featherweights.

If the main event is "tainted", then it is merely a pretty good PPV that is worth the money, rather than being a terrific bargain.

I can agree with that.

The issue with the main event still sucks, though.

Aldo has been cursed with a lack of marketability, his PPV's have never met the minimum thresholds to get a backend bonus, so this whole Conor McGregor thing has been a financial gift from God for him. He's going to make millions on this fight, there's no way he doesn't walk out on July 11th unless the state cancels the fight.

If anything, this broken rib thing makes him more money if he loses, because although he was probably going to get an instant rematch if he lost, this now guarantees it, and people will want to pay to see Conor defend the title against the "real" Aldo.

I think he make more money at 155lb. The casual fans arent familar with the fighters or care as much about 135 and 145 IMO.

Yeah, it does indeed. I've been looking forward to this for a while.

At this point I still want Aldo's barely-active ass dragged out there, and if he gets beat because of his ribs, so be it.

Today's rumor is that Conor still wants to fight someone if Aldo drops out, so the UFC might throw Nate Diaz at him at 155 lb.

It sorta makes sense, the Irish fans flying in still get to see him fight, and Nate Diaz is a guy who the fans know who probably won't be much of a threat to Conor, so the UFC still eventually gets the big fight.

In light of recent reports regarding the status of UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo, UFC has received official medical confirmation from several doctors that Aldo did not suffer a broken rib. Following a review of the scans, it has been determined that the champion suffered a bone bruise to his rib and cartilage injury during training.

With this news, Aldo has expressed that he has every intention of facing Conor McGregor at UFC 189.

While Aldo has indicated that he will compete in Las Vegas on July 11, UFC has confirmed a contingency plan. No.1 featherweight contender Chad Mendes will face McGregor for the interim UFC featherweight championship in the event Aldo cannot compete.

UFC remains committed to delivering the featherweight and the welterweight championship fights at UFC 189 during UFC International Fight Week in Las Vegas.

Yep, you beat me to it.

ITS ON! follow-up x-rays were negative, he's got a bone bruise. I'm sure it hurt like a mother and he thought it was broken.

So, is it really a bone bruise, or did Aldo find a doctor willing to say the right things, and everyone is going to play along? Can NV order an x-ray?

The NSAC just told ESPN that they won't take Aldo's word for it. They will examine him to make sure his rib is not broken before signing off on the fight.

I hate to say I agree, but I kinda do. Aldo is an insane fighter. When he came over with the WEC, I was sure he was headed for absolute superstar status. Then he just...wasn't a draw. Adding to that, he fights infrequently. He's been kind of a disappointment for me.

He fights as often as Cain, that's not a good thing. He also bitches about money and treatment of fighters all the damn time. I love his fighting style but not his outside the ring bullshit

Apparently using IV to rehydrate after weigh-in is prohibited under the WADA code. If this sticks, then a lot of guys will have to move up in weight class.

They are using the small octagon tonight. Looks like a pretty shallow card, I really only care about the main event

It's official now....Aldo out, Mendes in and will fight McGregor for the BS interim FW Title.

5th title fight Aldo has pulled out of...UFC looks incredibly dumb for sitting on this fight and not putting it on 2 months ago.
