First impression of the match-ups:
• Cyborg > Lansberg
• Barao > Nover
• Nelson > Bigfoot
• Trinaldo > Felder
• Santos > Spicely
• Pepey > Torre
• Burns > Prazeres
• Yahya vs. Tanaka (dunno. Toughest fight to predict on this card)
• Formiga > Ortiz
• Silva vs. Chagas (dunno)
• Ray > Patrick
• Luque > Urbina
• Gillespie > Franca
squash matches all around, lol. What a shitty card. Trinaldo and Felder is the only fight that I find interesting.
Also, is there some commission that regulates this fucking fights. How Bigfoot is allowed to continue fighting, I'll never know. Feel like Roy as much as he sucks this days is free money here.

Interesting that her nutritionist has her taking birth control pills to help cut the weight.

The fights I think look decent on paper:
Trinaldo vs. Felder
Yahya vs. Tanaka
Formiga vs. Ortiz
Silva vs. Chagas (someone will get finished in a violent way)
Patrick vs. Ray (step up for Ray in competition, and Patrick can keep the fight close)
Anyway, none of these fights look good on paper, just a few decent fights that I'm interested in watching.

What happens to Cyborg bets, if she s found using banned supplements
The same thing that happens to bets on other fighters who are found using banned supplements.
I mean .... the same thing you said but as a question, gave her as an example. Considering the bets are paid after the fight, but the supplement are only found days after I'm guessing ppl keep their money?

Of course people keep their $$. I'm still waiting for my Hunt $$ refund vs Brock if there ever was such a case
I was never a fan of Cyborg, but I don't understand why the UFC doesn't just make 145 lb fights (esp since they're just making arbitrary no division 140 lb fights) for her if not a mini division. Interest in women's MMA is solid enough now and it's pretty clear that she wasn't exaggerating when she said she couldn't make 135 for Ronda
Felder does suck. Best case for a guy passing the eye test with flying colors yet with a gap from that eye test to actual skill. Might still have to be on Felder here though. If Trinaldo fades like he did in his last fight, Felder's tough enough to last and possibly finish late
btw if you guys are not watching TUF, you should, skip all the reality bullshit up to the fights if you dont like it like i usually do, but all fighs have been super interesting
this season they've taken 16 flyweight champions in different promotions on the planet and the winner gets to fight Mighty Mouse, almost all of them are really good
Ariel Helwani reported that Chris has to lose 4.5kg to make weight tomorrow... damn

Most people think Roy Nelson is one of the locks of the card. He could easily just go out there and land 1 punch and finish Bigfoot real quick (he does it to most people and Bigfoot's chin is bad), but I have a feeling Roy won't finish Bigfoot in R1.
