Many reporting that that Conor tweet is a tactic to get him back on the card.

Helwani is the best for this kind of stuff and he said that they've been in contact but from the UFCs side nothing has changed.

I think it depends on the outcome of DC's scan today, if he passes it I'm almost sure he'll fight Jones on 200

[EwarWoo]

JBJ vs DC is pretty much a cert for 200 from what I've been seeing.

As I've said before Is till reckon JM vs ND is too. I don't care how but 200 will be, UFC will be happy to push a few extra "controversy" buys.

The sooner MMA becomes like boxing with multiple organisations widely respected the better.

Really? I think boxing is a bit of a joke with all those belts for the same weight classes. One belt so people know who the best is. Thats how it should be.

Now, different organisations fighting for one belt is the ideal. But it will never happen.

That's why there are belt holders (Joshua) and World Champions (Fury)

Back to MMA looks like McGregor isn't back on the 200 card.

UFCs handeling of this episode has sent a strong message to him and all other fighters under contract.

But if WBA are being dicks fighters can ignore it and go the others.

It keeps everything honestish and stops the organisation holding fighters to ransom.

Boxing and its one million belts .. is a Joke .. has been a joke for a long time .... I would rather have an organisation as un perfect as it is like the UFC .. making for the most part great fights than ..a fractured cluster **** of different organisations and mega powerful individual fighters that is boxing which rarely if ever serves up the best two boxers fighting each other at the right time

Jones vs Cormier confirmed as the headliner for UFC 200.
Connors hissy fit has cost him several million dollars. Silly boy.

Terrible fight for Conor ... he should take that fight after he comes back with a win ... it will smash the PPV records

Can't be anything other than delighted for Bisping.

[EwarWoo]

Holy f*!

Thought he was just an also ran until his last fight, but even that didn't make me think he could take the title. Good on him.

[Alex]

What's everyone think of Lesnar coming back? I'd love to see him forfil his potential in the octagon. But I think it's past that now for him. He's 38.

Still in amazing shape, but no opponent announced can't be great for training. Be interesting though and will help them do massive numbers.

Go on The Count
Rockhold way too cocky

[labourRed]

Bispling is such a ****.
