UFC FN 76: Poirier vs. Duffy - Page 3

WTF?

Miocic pulled out of this card due to injury. Miocic was just rebooked for January 2nd against Arlovski. Arlovski is a bigger name and is ranked at #4, which is higher than Ben Rothwell.

Miocic is basically getting rewarded for ruining thr co-main evejt of this Ireland card, while Rothwell continues to get pushed to the side.

You're saying Patrick Holohan vs. Louis Smolka as the Main Event doesn't excite you???

How about Norman Parke vs. Reza Madadi as the co-main!

FML... I was excited for this card.

Lol two only interesting fights in the card were cancelled, now its officially the worst card ever and literally speaking.

Main Card: Friday at 6pm PST / 9pm EST.

Brandon Halsey vs. Rafael Carvalho (Bellator Middleweight Championship)
Brennan Ward vs. Dennis Olson
Goiti Yamauchi vs. Isao Kobayashi
Michael Page vs. Charlie Ontiveros

Ah the streak comes to and end.... finally.

Bad day thanks to Smolka beasting that Main Event. I was big on Holohan.

- $210 on the weekend.

Shitty card, and a bunch of weird shit happened, so it was impossible to win on DraftKings today.

The only good fight was Darren Till vs. Nicolas Dalby, and the only two other semi entertaining fights were Neil Seery vs. Jon Delos Reyes and Louis Smolka vs. Paddy Holohan (both of which ended in round 2).

The next UFC card is in 2 weeks. Vitor Belfort vs. Dan Henderson in Brazil. There's basically no good cards in October and November, because December is STACKED.

Yah, I think they are moving in a seasonal direction where December - May/Early June is gonna be stacked and then there's maybe 2-3 big cards other than that. I think they inflated the roster the last year and a half to saturate new markets, fill TV obligations, and figure out who the prospects worth keeping were so other organizations didn't swoop them up. Now they will lower the amount of events as stated above (still probably 40 a year, as opposed to 55) and they will be much more appealing with new prospects and less journeyman and cans. While everyone bitched and whined about over-saturation, I think they have a nice 5 year (arbitrary number) plan in place and it's working out nicely thus far, in spite of the joke Reebok partnership (on Reebok's end especially, they are just awful) and same old injury problems.
