      Not a fan of another "superfight", pluss if JJ wins? and Valentina's screwed out of another belt because of Nicco? I feel my blood boiling.

      That beeing said, I'm good with this. A Eubanks fight would probably be a slaughter.

      But this makes the whole Flyweight tournament illegitimate. Shame on you, UFC.

        It already was though because everyone knew the real champ wasn't on TUF. Will be interesting what happens next if JJ wins because she can fight at either 115 or 125. Valentina should be given the belt for a forfeit and this fight the 1st title defense.

          It's annoying cuz they're doing the same bull this season too with the "featherweights".
          if Cyborg beats Amanda Nunes she'll be given the fat Bantamweight winner of TUF? jeez, what an awful fight that's gonna be. I just wish the UFC would through a million dollars on Germain de Randamie. Make it a grudge fest instead.

          I totally agree, it worked for Aldo and Ronda. But the UFC doesn't do that anymore. It's a shame. Cyborg should have just been awarded her belt. Valentina should just be awarded her's by this point.

            I just watched highlights of JJ's and Valentina's Muay Thai fights.

            It will be interesting to see the odds. I'd probably give Valentina at least -300, at least.

                Leslie Smith's NLRB complaint against the UFC has been dismissed. All of that talk about her complaint leading to fighters being considered employees is now nothing.

                  I'm so over Jon. I wanna hear MartialMind find a way to defend his boi on this one.
                  I really don't wanna see another DC fight, at least right now. Regardless if he was clean or not, at this point there's just too much talk and not enough action. Let him fight a Gus, a Volkan.

                  The man is a GREAT fighter, but it's been ****ing 4 and a half years since all this **** started, pretty soon the division he once cleared will be relic of the past. The name of the game is relevance

                    Jones might be the pettiest, most insecure star ever.

                    Dude, stop the drugs and go beat some ***. You're good at it without anything, but you gotta be all up in here acting like a petulant child? FOH.

                      It was a sham from the get go, after the case got moved. Kajan arguably won his last fight, and looked pretty dang good in the process, better than Rustam Khabilov without a doubt, and the ufc just cut him.


                      Don't give Albert any props, his attitude is out of control already. Dude probably still stands by his decision with Michael Johnson to have grappling perks.

                      He had to make a troll post about Leslie's case.

                            LOL! What did I do? Look, I told yall what would happen. Dana White spoke at the ****ing president of the United States' convention. You actually think that a Federal agency was about to bring a decision against the UFC? One that would change the very structure of the UFC?

                            That wasnt a troll post. I just thought it was interesting that no one either mentioned or knew that Smith's case was dismissed.

                            FYI, I have no input on perks. Never have. Not at release. Not now. So blame the devs for any beef you have with perks.

                              To be fair you did post about it pretty early. I mean i think you beat MMAFIGHTING.

                              That being said the article on MMAFighting has like 12 comments currently. No one seems to care, and it's hard for me to sympathise with the fighters at this point. Like Luke Thomas said "The cavalry's not coming, boys, you are the the cavalry"

                                I saw it a day or 2 before it was posted here, but figured everyone already knew what was going to happen. She got a miracle decision and then it got moved to DC. I doubt the president had anything to do with it though, it was going to be rejected without him doing anything.

                                The problem is they tied the whole case to Smith having her contract not renewed. They should have never done that as there is no law that says you have to renew contracts. All other sports do the same thing and the rest of the world also follows the terms in contracts. The UFC paid her off to end the contract and then didn't want to work with her any more.

                                They can still go back and potentially win, but Smith needs to be removed or pushed to the background. Then maybe they will get the support from the fighters they need.
