The island should always be an option in case Vegas tightens up their rules or goes into lock down again.

Who manages Paige? Her husband?

That bag must’ve been ridiculous cause I assumed for sure she was Bellator bound.

Agreed, plus once things eventually start opening up they can hold conferences and make it a destination type of place considering all the entertainment and things to do on Yas Island.

Paige to BKFC??? Thought she would sign with Bellator or One. She doesn't have great boxing and fighting bare knuckle could severly damage her face. Thought BKFC didn't pay that well and also that she would just continue using IG to get into more modeling and transition to acting eventually.

 

[thehealthinspector]

isnt the island for international fighters (in addition to US fighters) with vegas being for fighters already in the US

 

[shogun]

paige not good at making decisions.

 

[shogun]

Amanda bae's sister is cuter than her.

 

[datboi81]

So Colby and Tyron going to be on the same card as Costa and Stylebender?
Might be the best event of the year.

you say that until youre watching colby press woodley up against the cage for 25 min

 

[steevoo1]

Colby and Tyron would be a fight night in Vegas and Izzy/Costa would be the week after, 26th or whatever date that last Saturday is.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

lmao wth

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Almost every pod they’re saying if dc wins and retires stipe will get the vacant title shot against Francis

I honestly don’t agree nor understand this. Francis deserves the next shot and if stipe loses then you put Lewis or blaydes in there. Dont care about those being a rematches. stipe shouldn’t get two consecutive shots Lol that’s not really How it should work

 

[SORIANOTRON]

I ain’t even mad at it

would much rather see the rematch between stipe than between lewis (quite possibly the worst fight of all time) and no one wanna watch blaydes do anything lol

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Guaranteeing stipe another title shot on a loss degrades and diminishes the fight on Saturday. I don’t want to do that

 

[lesgodson]

Man, I think if Stipe gets KO’ed or dominated...

I’m almost positive Uncle Dana caves and decides to give Bones a call for Nov/Dec. I get Blaydes probably deserves a title shot however he’s currently on Dana’s S*** list and I don’t know how you can justify Francis/Blaydes 3 at this point. Nov/Dec are usually loaded PPV’s, and if the title does indeed become vacant...Francis/Jon fits the timeline.

 

[SORIANOTRON]

I mean if we getting technical, DC knocked him out and the UFC screwed him out of a rematch because they wanted to give DC the brock fight so he could retire...didn’t fall through so they threw him derrick lewis?

stipe deserve it man, no one defended the belt more than him. And seeing how he destroyed DC in the second fight AND beat francis it’s not like he’s undeserving.

stipe as champ is a good thing for the ufc/division

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Francis vs Lewis if stipe loses

I honestly don’t see the fight being boring again

 

[SORIANOTRON]

I guess we’ll find out soon enough

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The matchup id like the most is dc vs Jones if dc wins on Saturday

Dc seems to be convinced he’s going to retire but money talks. I have no clue as to the benefits it would bring to Dana because if jon loses and dc retires that would suck for him

but Javier bringing up jones out of nowhere was interesting

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Jones IS NOT fighting DC a third time lol yall really think he gonna sign the contract and give him another chance after he beat him twice?

sure dana wants it, sure DC want it...but it’s not up to them

this is akin to khabib never fighting mcgregor again, no matter how many wins conor get khabib wants the L to burn forever.

 

[droseph]

 

[spiderjericho]

^^^She knows what she’s doing like Nicki, Meg and Cardi.

And Stipe should get the vacant title shot if he loses. How we entertaining Aldo and Peter Yan title shots. Max/Alex 3. Yoel/Izzy. All the women’s Featherweight title shots.

And Stipe, if he loses, has wins over JDS, Werdum, Francis, DC, etc. He’d be the #1 contender (and former champion and if DC wins...the same winner would have retired so he’s next in line).

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

You shouldn't automatically stay #1 contender based on your past. I can understand if you were a champ like Anderson or Aldo and you lose once. Ok, get the rematch. But they've already beaten each other one time and now can settle it properly on Saturday

No need to keep getting gifted #1 contender shots off losses. Cheapens the fight on Saturday

 

[spiderjericho]

Stipe should.

obviously we don’t know what’s going to happen in two days. But he’s P4P, the greatest HW of all time. He’s not washed. Beat the brakes off Francis the last time they fought (and actually ate one of those world Enders). Like on paper. Lewis not doing anything to him. Neither does Blaydes.

But...I understand your reservations. And someone floated the idea of having a small tourney. Francis/Lewis. Blaydes/Stipe.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

And after Stipe beat Francis, Francis went on to beat all of the very best of the division.. 4 fight win streak all finishes

Stipe has nothing to lose then on Saturday if he's guaranteed yet another title shot. The very antithesis of competition and sport--- especially at the highest level
