Awesome

Cant wait.

What does this mean for the Jan Fox event?  Looks like no titles on that card.

Nice!!

Finally Cruz vs Barao

Aldo/Lamas

Barao/Cruz

Mir/Reem

So far not a bad looking card.

Aldo/Lamas



Barao/Cruz



Mir/Reem



So far not a bad looking card.

I expect the level of matchups/star power will drop off considerably after those 3 matchups. Phone Post 3.0

Sounds great but I would bet Cruz backs out. Phone Post 3.0

I think it will get two more good fights.



I'm thinking for the Fox card in Jan and the rest of this card you have the following fights you can make.



Machida vs Vitor, win or lose vs Hendo a drop back to MW to fight Machida works.



Stipe/Gonzaga



Bendo/dos Anjos



Khabib/Grant



Lombard/Shields



Plus Gilbert and JDS could look to return around that time.

Finally Cruz vs Barao


This should be a good match....hopefully tho, it wont be a shitstorm lol

Great start to the card, hope they don't skimp on the other two main card fights. Never pulled the trigger on any of the UFC events at the Prudential Center but I may have to go to Newark for this. Phone Post 3.0

Having Cruz back fighting is great news

Having Barao as your first fight after a two year layoff is not great news T_T

Mir vs Overeem should be pushed hard with the loser leaves town aspect.

Casual fans will buy the card more for that bout if promoted properly than either title bout.

I'm not saying to not sell the two main events but the UFC would be well served to let everyone know about that heavyweight tilt.

"Mir vs Overeem PLUS two title fights? Yeah that sounds like it'd be worth ordering"- casual fan

Versus

"Who are in the title fights?"

Casuals still know Mir and Overeem both because of Lesnar.

Barao, Cruz, Lamas and Aldo haven't got that sort of visibility yet. Phone Post
