An executive for Showtime, who Mayweather is contracted to fight for, said that if the UFC is "reasonable" then Mayweather-McGregor could happen in the early Fall. If they aren't reasonable and it drags on, then it could be closer to the end of the year or early next year.

GSP revealed why he needs so much time to fight. He has a minor eye injury that is healing, and the doctors told him that he shouldn't even spar until September. He also said the UFC knew about it when he signed, and he thought they shouldn't do the press conference with Bisping yet because the timeline for the fight would be so long, but the UFC insisted on it anyway, then tried to pressure him to fight in July. After the UFC pulled the fight, GSP decided to go public with what was happening.

yep, that went about as I expected. Mediocre and unexciting with a few exceptions until the main event. I knew that last fight would be insane.
I have no idea how Teixeira lasted so long taking that kind of a beating.

Germaine de Randamie has announced that she will never fight Cyborg because she's a cheater or whatever. She's also said she plans to go back to 135 rather than defend her FW belt.
I think the UFC should make her the first reigning champion that they just outright cut.

Brazilian PPV this weekend
Friday 11am - (Fightpass) - FNG 68 Judging from tapology rankings, this is a very high quality card by local promotion standards, approaching Bellator levels. Unfortunately its on at a very inconvenient time for those of us who work regular hours. If you are home at about 1pm, then the last 4 fights might be worth watching 3pm - (Fightpass) - Cage Warriors 84 More convenient time, but this is only an average quality card by local promotion standards. Saturday 7pm TV - (5:30pm Fightpass/7pm FS1/9pm PPV) - UFC 212 Aldo vs. Holloway They always seem to do this to us for PPV's in Brazil. This card is top-heavy, they included just enough at the end to make me want to buy the PPV with a FW title unification bout, a strawweight #1 contender bout, and Vitor Belfort is still fighting. Beyond that though..... not much. God help this card if something happens to cause the cancellation of the main event. Do not even think about buying this PPV until Saturday morning at the earliest, after everyone has made weight and you have checked for any breaking UFC news.

Everyone made weight, so barring any medical issues today, the (very weak and top-heavy) card tomorrow is still intact.

Classic Mario Yamasaki stop just now, just watched a guy get beat half to death before he finally waved it off.

And now the other extreme, early bad stop in the Silva Medeiros fight.
If I have to have a bad ref decision, I'd rather see a fast stop than a Mario bloodbath special, but that was early.
