This weekend's schedule:
Friday nothing Saturday 3pm - (Fightpass) - Cage Warriors 88 This card looks roughly average by local promotion standards. 7pm TV - (6pm Fightpass/7pm FS1/9pm FS1) - UFC Fight Night, Brunson vs. Machida Just like most Brazilian cards, almost every match is a Brazilian vs an American or European fighter, with a few well-known Brazilian names. Most Brazilian cards are kinda lackluster, but this one isn't bad with a couple good fights. Its about average for a UFC free TV card.

This is obviously going to be a big weekend.
Friday 8pm TV - (6pm internet/8pm Spike) - Bellator 186, Bader vs. Vassell This card is excellent by Bellator standards, its probably going to be one of the 5 or 6 best cards of the year for the top of the B-leagues. Its about the same quality as an average or slightly below-average UFC card. Unless injury or weight cut problems decimates this thing, I plan to watch. Saturday 7pm TV - (5:30pm Fightpass/7pm FS1/9pm PPV) - UFC 217, Bisping vs. St-Pierre This card is great from top to bottom in Madison Square Garden. Even in the fightpass prelims we have a couple interesting and important matches. The prelims are all good (how the hell did OSP not make the main card or at least feature prelim?!?), and then at the top we have 3 title matches including one of the UFC's only two active draws right now, and one of the UFC's scariest female fighters isn't even the co-main. There's absolutely nothing to complain about, this is on paper going to be one of the 2 or 3 best cards of the year, and I'll probably also start a thread for it on Saturday.

I'm pretty hype for Dillashaw Garbrandt, Joana vs Rose should be good but the main event is nothing special.

Coming down from UFC 217, this weekend is kinda busy.
Friday 8pm - (Spike) - Bellator 187: McKee vs. Moore This is a bad card by Bellator standards, because its got a lot of their international prospects. Its also on tape delay since its in Ireland, so avoid twitter if you don't want spoilers and actually plan to watch this. Saturday 7pm TV - (5:30pm Fightpass/7pm FS1) - UFC Fight Night: Poirier vs. Pettis Wow. This is a very nice card by free TV standards. If you slapped a championship bout on top of this thing, it could have been a typical PPV. After the first 2 fights on fightpass (involving random prospects), I am interested in literally every fight on the rest of the card. midnight - (Fightpass) - Pancrase 291 Pancrase is a very low-level promotion that usually has bad cards, but this is actually pretty good by their very very low standards. It might be comparable to a below-average Bellator card. It starts at midnight, but its going to run pretty late because they have a whopping 18 bouts. There are no commercials or breaks though, as soon as a fight is over they rush them out and get the next guys in right away. Sunday 6pm - (6pm Fightpass (free)/7pm Fightpass ($20)) - Combat Jiu-Jitsu Worlds 1 I don't know what this is, but whatever it is, its the first one, its on fightpass, and they are offering the first hour for free presumably so you can see if you like it. Then the rest of the card is $20.

So.... I guess we now have a reason to watch Bellator tonight. Conor McGregor was there in Dublin watching one of his buddies fight, and after the fight he completely lost his shit.
He wasn't a corner or anything, just in the crowd, he apparently ran to the cage, jumped in, and charged at the referee Marc Goddard. When security separated them, he later slapped a Bellator employee. They'll obviously play that shit during the replay tonight on Spike.

Putting the schedule up early because those wacky Alaskans have a fight card tomorrow. If you are looking for fights to watch, boy do we got a lot of fights for you to watch this weekend. We're chock full of fights.... not very many GOOD fights mind you, but we got a lot of em!
Wednesday 11pm - (Fightpass) - Alaska Fighting Championship 135 Its hard to judge this card's quality, they seem to have some of the best talent in Alaska.... but its Alaska. Anyway, there's nothing else on for MMA. Friday 6pm - (Fightpass) - Titan FC 46 Judging by Tapology rankings, this is roughly average by local promotion standards. 8pm - (Spike) - Bellator 188: Lahat vs. Labiano This is not a very good card by Bellator standards. Its also on tape delay from Israel, so avoid MMA twitter if you care about spoilers. (you shouldn't) Saturday 7pm TV - (5:30pm Fightpass/7pm FS1) - UFC Fight Night: Werdum vs. Tybura Its not a terrible card, but its definitely below average for UFC on free TV.

Take it with a grain of salt, but the rumor for UFC 219 is Woodley vs. Nate Diaz

The internet is running crazy with wild rumors, but so far what we know for sure is that Conor got into a bar fight last night. He may or may not have beaten up a high-ranking irish mobster.
edit: and Dana insisted that Conor's agent is either misinformed or lying, the UFC was targeting a Conor fight for December, and decided to punish him by moving on to other plans after his Bellator nonsense.
