UFC 200 is this weekend

[prophet]

Which is mental to me given that the first UFC PPV I bought and stayed up to watch in full was UFC 100. I can't wait for this fight week to kick off. Before we even get into the PPV we've got Jedrzejczyk/Gadelha on Friday which I'm pumped for. (Dos Anjos is fighting on Thursday but meh, he's a pussy)

First and foremost Diego Sanchez and Joe Lauzon are fighting on the Fight Pass pre-lims; what a war that is going to be. Mousasi/Dillashaw/Northcutt/Hendricks/Gastelum all on the undercard. Anyone interested in MMA knows that the main card is quality but I'm interested in who you're all (if anyone cares) rooting for.

Rooting for:
Jones
Hunt
Tate
Edgar
Cain

These video packages are quality as well. I urge you all to watch the DC/Jones one in particular.





STILL AIN'T GOT NUTTIN' ON DIAZ/MCGREGOR 2 THO HAS IT M8?

[KaiserGlider]

Do I have to do it.



Doesn't show Lesnar training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber at 200x gravity, but it's a pretty cool video package nonetheless.

[SlightlyJames]

I've never really been super into UFC but I'm usually down for the odd show here and there and this one seems like one to watch. I'll be watching for Jones and Lesnar.

I hope Hunt walk-off KO's Brock in the first.

I hope Hunt walk-off KO's Brock in the first.

I've got Hunt to win by KO but I'm amazed that so many people are writing off Lesnar's chances. Should Lesnar get a takedown early on it could be a short night for Hunt.

Which is exactly how it's gonna be.

Had no idea Lesnar was fighting such odds during his fighting career. That's frustrating, and puts a lot into perspective on why he has been in and out of events.

I don't want Jones to win but I think he will.

Other two fights are in good heart, and seem like great matches. I'd consider watching this.

[KaiserGlider]

Jon Jones reportedly out of the main event.

Lesnar vs Hunt is now the main event.

Okay, what's the consensus here? Is it that the UFC's trying to protect Cormier, or is it that Jones is a complete idiot?

Jones is a complete idiot. They made a fake injury for Cormier so they could push this fight to UFC 200. I'm sure Dana White is pissed because this was the big drawing fight for 200. Don't get me wrong the card is still good but that was the main focus.

[PorkChop]

SO FUCKING PISSED

[Daz]

Jones is really trying to fuck up his career completely, isn't he? What a fucking moron.

[Str8Shooter]

UFC thanking the heavens they got Brock for this card, they'll still draw huge.

Brock was the insurance policy against Jones.

Brock main events the biggest show of the year despite not fighting in 5 years.

Main evented UFC 100 and now UFC 200

[PorkChop]

Rumours have it that Anderson Silva is going to replace Jones. That would be pretty cool. I'm still mad tho.

[PorkChop]

Silva vs Cormier confirmed. Cormier will win but it's one of the more interesting fights they could've made.

Tate vs Nunes is the main event now. Can you imagine being told a year ago that a women's bantamweight title fight would headline UFC 200, which didn't include Ronda Rousey?

[Kreashko]

The WWE is livestreaming the weigh ins right now for UFC 200 on their Facebook page.

Is there really that much interest in the women's fight to be the main event? I'm a casual fan but the Brock fight, hell even Cormier/Silva look like bigger deals, at least to me.

The women's title fight isn't the spectacle that Lesnar vs Hunt is or Cormier vs Silva is, but it's the most legitimate contest of the three and may actually turn out to be a better fight. It deserves to be the main event over two non-title fights, one of which is a meaningless freakshow fight and the other is only happening now because of a late replacement from the division below.
