he was EconoReem that night, which was good, definitely learned a lot from the Travis Brown fight.

 

and he definitely improved his cardio, he looked just as fresh at the end of round 3 and at the start of the fight, he didn't even look like he was in a fight at all.

Now i am wondering what's next in the HW division.

 

Cain will be out 6 months minimum after surgery

Junior is stuck after losing twice to the champ

Travis and Fabricio will fight

Cormier is moving to LHW

Warmaster, Mir, Nelson are coming off losses

Bigfoot and Big Ben are suspended due to PED

Only bright spot is Miocic

Overeem is on a comeback trail

 

Oh how I wish Carwin, Del Rosario and Lesnar (yeah him.. haha) were still in the mix. Though I'm betting when he feels Overeem's kick again he will crawl back to the WWE again.. haha..

Barao still has one legit challenge in 135. Former champ Dominik Cruz. If he beats him, then what happens to that division?

 

Much like Aldo in 145, the top contenders there were already beaten by the champ. Mendes, Lamas, Swanson, Korean Zombie. Although Poirier looked impressive in his last fight, I dont think he will last with Aldo. A rematch with Mendes though is a fight I'd love to see. Especially how Chad is tearing up the division lately.

 

LW is still the most competitive division. And this is still excluding Alvarez and Chandler.

^ You think BJ can get past Frankie this time around?

 

Aldo at 155 would be fun, love to see Edson against Aldo to see who can kick better..

 

BJ seems really focused right now, and when that guy is on, he's on.

 

I may be biased, because I'm a huge BJ fan, but I think Frankie will have his hands full with this new version of BJ. He just needs to stay focused and fight off the lazy.

i guess im the biggest BJ fan but i dont like his chances against Edgar. A motivated Penn is like a mythical creature to me, ill believe it when i see it. Although him training in Nova Uniao with the likes of Barao and Aldo is a step in the right direction, i dont think training there for a couple of months will make much of a difference. Im still rooting for the Prodigy either way.

Nurmagomedov now has a fight, against Rafael dos Anjos.. wrestling vs jitz anyone?

 

Anthony "Rumble" Johnson is back in the UFC in his right weight class. A guy who has a walking weight of 225lbs should not fight at 170. That was just insane how he would cut almost 60lbs to make that weight. Let's see how he does against Phil Davis' wrestling.

UFC veteran Thiago Silva is being alleged to have barricaded himself inside his Florida home on Thursday evening and was surrounded by a Broward Sheriff’s SWAT team after threatening people at a jiu-jitsu school, according to a report in the Ft. Lauderdale Sun Sentinel.

 

While Silva was not directly named in the report, sources close to the situation confirmed to Sherdog.com that it was the UFC light heavyweight who was involved in the SWAT standoff. According to news station South Florida 6 NBC, the suspect was taken into custody at 11:15 p.m. ET.

 

The suspect allegedly walked into the Pablo Popovitch Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Center at 777 E. Oakland Park Blvd at approximately 7:45 p.m. ET, made unspecified threats and left.

 

No one at the school was injured, investigators told the Sun-Sentinel, but NBC 6 South Florida reports the suspect was armed at the time. The suspect later went to the 2000 block of Coral Heights Court and locked himself inside his home.

 

Silva, who holds his fight camps with the Blackzilians team, has been booked to square off with Ovince St. Preux at UFC 171 in Dallas on March 15. The Brazilian last competed at UFC Fight Night 29 in October, taking a unanimous decision over Matt Hamill.

There are unconfirmed reports that thiago walked in packing an AK-47 looking to k*ll Pablo Popovitch.

 

Apparently, Pablo is hooking up with Thiago's wife who trains at the center, Thiago is looking to rectify this violation of the bro code.

That situation is just sad, he let his anger get the best of him.

 

He told some reporters that his wife wanted his house and his money, well Thiago, you should not worry about that anymore.

 

And he has attempted murder charged to him and no bail.

 

Oh I guess it's a no brainer that UFC already terminated his contract.
