[I'm Batman.]

GSP is coming back!

 

[Slushy]

Brock Lesnar will be billed as hailing from Canada now (He has a farm near Regina) and will come out to his WWE theme. Paul Heyman, unfortunately, will not accompany him down the aisle.

[Lantern Venom]

I'm not down with this ESPN body issue phenomenon at all. I clicked on their website today and got an unwelcomed shot of Conor McGregor's bare crap maker. While I like UFC and MMA in general, when it comes to naked fighters:

 

[The Apocalypse]

Jon Jones is off the card for Saturday. Possible anti-doping violation.

Well that takes some the shine off of the event. Dana can't be happy about this.

 

[VelcroWallet]

There can be no more excuses, no more redemption stories. Jon Jones will go down as the biggest screwup in the history of MMA.

 

[E-Man]

I was just thinking yesterday that it was unreal that such a stacked card could make it without something major canceling a fight. Bones just had to be near a **** up again. It's still a great card, but the fight I wanted to see the most is done.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Jones had a chance to go down as one of the best UFC fighters ever but instead he's pissed all away by being a moron and missing numerous fights.

[The Apocalypse]

I was actually telling my friend, a few hours ago, I never watched Jon Jones fight live. I've been watching UFC for around 2 years now. Then, this happens.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

Never get excited for a main event.

 

[I'm Batman.]

Would no one be able to fight DC on short notice? This might have cost other guys on the card a lot of money, and some of those guys were probably really counting on that cash. Shame.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

I don't think a single main event has gone as planned since Dos Anjos pulled out against McGregor.

 

[LoganGambit87]

Bisping is willing to take the fight

[VelcroWallet]

Bisping will fight him

Even if it's a division up. Even if it's his friend. Even if it's 3 days notice. lol

Always hungry.

 

[Knightfall]

Well Lesnar vs Hunt is now the Main event with Tate vs Nunes as the Co main event.

 

[LoganGambit87]

Alexander Gustafsson willing to take the fight

 

[Slushy]

79 PPVs later and Lesnar, a current WWE Superstar, main events UFC again!

Who's The fu**ing Man?!!

 

[B]

Great shame about Jones/DC being removed, innocent until proven guilty but still with his track record it's embarrassing for him to happen leading up to what could have been a career defining fight for him.

Disappointed Lesnar/Hunt is now the Main Event as well. I feel Edgar/Aldo 2 should have been elevated & leave Lesnar vs Hunt as a co-main. One of the cool things about the Lesnar/Hunt fight was that it was a potentially fun fight thrown into a card that was already stacked, a cherry on top of you will. Having it headline the card now seems out of place, in my eyes anyway.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Jones is out due to [possible] steroid use and Lesnar is now the main event? Got to appreciate the irony.

 

[CrypticOne]

Jon Jones. The best, most stupid fighter in MMA history.

 

[Knightfall]

Jones is out due to [possible] steroid use and Lesnar is now the main event? Got to appreciate the irony.

Lesnar also got an exemption from USADA... Go figure
