Bisping currently walking around at LHW and saying he will take a fight.

Imagine if he somehow beat DC like he did Rockhold

That's the fight I'd like to see - champ vs champ, worthy of it's spot on the UFC 200 card.

Bisping is such a warrior - campaigning for a 5 round fight on 2 days notice.

Jones can **** off now

Also om the promotion angle you've got the whole AKA revenge thing for Rockhold.

If I had to put money on it I think it'll be Mousasi.

Agreed - he's already on the card, so has had a full camp.

Either fight is a decent replacement to be honest. I just hope they do actually give DC a fight, harsh as hell on him otherwise.

Looks like it could be Anderson Silva

[RichC]

Yup Silva has been confirmed

[Alex]

That'll be a good fight. Silva is not the fighter he was before he broke his leg. But he is still one of the best ever.

Surprised someone his age and with the lack of fights hes had recently could take it at short notice.

Hes only had like 1 fight a year since 2012 I think.

I also notice that Brock v Hunt is now down to co main. Tate v Nunez is the main now.

I guess they looked at Brock in a wrestling ring and realised after 1 round he will blow up. Let alone take it to a potential 5.

[Gibbo]

Brock was only 3 rounds no matter what.

Tate vs Nunes is the worst fight on the card and the it's now the headliner, UFC 200 got a bit of a shafting

[Alex]

My guess is that Rousey will step up to whoever wins the title in the Main and get in the Octagon. Bit of a better ending than what might happen anyway.

Just looking at a clip of McGregor and Diaz squaring up for the cameras for 200, and i didn't notice any big difference first fight, but today, Diaz looks a lot bigger all round, bigger than Conor in all physical areas that matter.

Looking at Conor I think he's lost a bit of muscle around the leg area. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, think he'll be more used to having a heavier frame now which makes him less likely to gas, I think that's incredibly important because this fight (if Diaz doesn't finish him) will go 5 rounds.

Don't think Connor is capable of KO'ing Diaz then ?

That's quite an issue for Connor tbf, but maybe knowing/accepting that will ensure he fights in a more tactically astute way in comparison to last time.

anybody watch over the weekend.

disappointed with the crowd booing DC

and surely that was an illegal knee that finished meisha tate?
