    This is a fight I can't wait to see, if Rory wins its a title shot but if he loses he might jump ship to Bellator. Also Cowboy vs Cote should be fun. I don't how good the rest of the card is but im pumped for the main event.

    BTW I want Rory to win and i don't want him going to Bellator. Ughhhhhh!

      It might not be a title shot if GSP comes back.

      I dont think he's going to Bellator though unless they offer him a CRAZY contract. The UFC has matching rights and they have matched every fighter they have ever wanted to keep.

        This should be a great fight. I like both guys a lot but I'm rooting for Rory

          I think it's kind of a bad spot for Rory. Last fight of his contract, Thompson is very dangerous, and his last fight was among the most brutal I have ever witnessed.

          I really like both fighters, but will be rooting for Rory because I have been a fan since his first fight in the ufc, and the last fight was so ugly.


          Cerrone vs Cote could be a fantastic fight. Wish I could simulate it, or use Cerrone at WW.

          It will also be fun to see the barn cat fight again. Not a big fan, but love the nickname

            Man I love both these guys so much. This is gonna be such a wild fight. One that I truly have no idea what to expect.

            Rory is by far one of my favorite fighters though, so I'm definitely rooting for him. Interesting though, Tri Star brought in some really awesome, hi level guys to train with Rory for this camp:

            Raymond "Real Deal" Daniels


            and

            Micheal "Venom" Page


            To me, this adds a really interesting element to this fight. Wonderboy is exactly that, a Wonderboy. And most of his opponents have very little, if any experience against such a style. It's extremely hard to emulate that type of movement, and attack in camp also, so it's hard to prepare for.

            In this case though, not only does Firas(Rory's coach) have experience working with Thompson, but they actually brought in 2 of the highest level fighters on the planet with extremely similar styles. Both with very lengthy, extensive point karate, and kickboxing backgrounds.

            This means Rory will be going into this fight with a real game plan, and with real experience against that type of movement, angles, and attacks.

            I haven't been more excited for a fight in a while to be honest. This is gonna be insane. lol!

              I don't think you could ask for many better guys than MVP and Daniels to emulate his style. Didn't realize Tristar brought them in.

                Man, if Rory loses I wonder if bellator will even pay much cash for him considering how Benson's fight went.

                Rooting for Rory, but I'm a big fan of both. I'd actually prefer it if they didn't fight at this point in time

                  I hope he does not go to Bellator, something about them just bores me more and more everytime i watch there shows.

                  He needs to stay in the UFC and try for the belt. He is a future champ and is so skilled.

                    Will the UFC even pay much? He is talented, but does the general public even care? Even if he wins, I don't think he is a draw. It will depend if the UFC is paying for talent or popularity.

                    Benson shouldn't have any impact as he was trying to fight above his weight class. Just shows the Bellator champ beats most of the UFC roster without question.

                      I think they should, but in my reality Rory is a big draw, I never miss one of his fights.

                      I just hope he comes back after his loss better than JDS looked after second Cain fight. I'd probably have PTSD after fighting Lawler.

                        Romance novel cover boy coming out to Gangsta's Paradise. Oxymoronic, if that's a word, lol.

                        I think Elias gets wins by tko before round 3.

                        That was interesting fight, lol. Looked more like casual sparring

                          No one should get a win bonus for that crap. The Canadian was getting boos.

                            Beal just blocked a strike from submissive side control??? That's unpossible.

                            Man, slick finish for Soto. I was surprised at the heat Beal was still throwing in round 3.
