That is very weird. He would be the last guy I would think Conor would fight at 200. Maybe later down the road, but not a 200.

Saw that, and the report states the fight would be at 170 lbs. again.

I don't think Edgar is ever going to his 145 lbs. shot against Conor at this rate.

Re: UFC 200
If this is true, I'm furious. This is bad matchmaking and Conor should probably vacate the belt. I can't believe they are thinking of doing this at WW.

Re: UFC 200
It'd make more sense if it was at 155. But man. I saw a tweet that summed it up best. If Conor wins it kills Nate's momentum, if Nate wins, Conor's stock might never recover.

It's just dumb in every way other than the UFC looking to pad it's pocketbook. A Nate win doesn't even help Nate because he already beat Conor.

Agreed in that I don't see the upside to doing this rematch right now.

UFC in desperation mode since Ronda likely won't be fighting on the card and GSP isn't coming back just yet.

I'm not sure why UFC feels that 200 should be such a huge event, anyway. I mean, it took them nearly 20 years to get to 100, so yeah, that event definitely had a lot of hype around it. They were able to play up the nostalgia of the company and showcase its top fighters on one card.

It's only been 7 years since UFC 100. A lot has changed since that night.

Although, they're obviously fake now, I liked the fights that Tim Kennedy Instagram'ed better.

Re: UFC 200
If Conor takes this fight, Frankie is gonna run up on Nate during the walk in and try to take his spot like it's a Royal Rumble
