Cormier pulls out of UFC197 with a leg injury.

.

Guess he gets to hold onto the belt for a little longer.

Wow! Man this was going to be a good fight....who do they throw at Jon jones in place of dc?

Wow! Man this was going to be a good fight....who do they throw at Jon jones in place of dc?

Honestly I think they'll just scrap the fight. I don't see Jones taking any fight that's not for the belt.

Dang. I had read DC was walking around a wrestling tournament limping. That just gives Jones more time to get arrested again before his next fight.

Cyborg makes her UFC debut on May 14th at a catchweight.

Diaz/McGregor 2 and Aldo/Edgar 2 set for July 9th. Pretty decent card if it stays intact.

Hearing it might be Jones vs Rumble at 197 now.

To me that is a way more exciting fight than dc.

Ovince Saint Preux

Ovince Saint Preux 

Just saw that. Something about Rumble not being healthy enough to take it. Should be a great fight regardless.

Man they don't want any chance of that DC fight not happening. A tune up match will work better for Jones with his new muscular frame.

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,057]

OSP has a punchers chance. JBJ may have ring rust but not likely.

[Dalton26 16,892]

I'm shocked Jones took the fight. Taking a short notice fight/opponent has always been an instant no for him.

I really hope OsP knocks Jones out cold. Jones is the face of the UFC, idiot just needs to keep his nose clean. Quit breaking the law, it's not hard!

4 big boy fights in that UFC! I enjoy the HWs normally.

I don't follow boxing at all.  How are p4p rankings determined?

I don't follow boxing at all.  How are p4p rankings determined?

The ranking are determined by The Ring magazine which is one of the biggest publications in the sport of boxing. They basically get a panel of boxing journalists from all over the world and they look at each fighters overall record, their performance, and quality of opposition.

I'm sure the process is a lot more complex but that is the basics behind the P4P ratings.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Vintage Pac tonight. He drops Bradley in the 7th and 9th.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

This Blachowicz/Pokrajac fight is starting to heat up.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Fight night on Fox. Machida failed a drug test so him and Hendo were scratched from this card.

UFC on FOX 19 "Prelims" (6 p.m. ET)

155 lbs.: Michael Chiesa vs. Beneil Dariush
135 lbs.: Bethe Correia vs. Raquel Pennington
170 lbs.: Court McGee vs. Santiago Ponzinibbio
155 lbs.: Drew Dober vs. Islam Makhachev

UFC on FOX 19 Main Card (8 p.m. ET)

205 lbs.: Glover Teixeira vs. Rashad Evans

115 lbs.: Rose Namajunas vs. Tecia Torres
160 lbs.: Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Darrell Horcher
145 lbs.: Cub Swanson vs. Hacran Dias

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,057]

Nurmagomedov might be biggest trash talker in UFC. Rose is the epitome of scrappy, and Teixeira vs Evans a great matchup. I got Evans but 3-4 years ago Teixeira in his prime was a beast.

I'm just glad to get a chance to watch Nurmagomedov, he hasn't fought in 2 years due to injury. Undefeated and a UD over RDA in his last fight.
