@danawhite just told me he's so amped about @SpiderAnderson @ChrisWeidmanUFC rematch, he's thinking of moving it to Dec. 28. #UFC
Why do they have to bump Ronda's match to February if Silva rematches on NYE??? Have it on the same card DFW, wtf!!!
They should be on the same card. That'd be one hell of way to end the year
What's the big deal about Tate/Rousey? There's no reason to expect it to last more than 2 minutes.

Unfortunately, in the current state of UFC oversaturation and too many PPVs, spreading out marquee fights will continue to be the norm.
I don't think it happens. Anderson will wait it out.

So Silva will allow himself to get subbed this time?

Silva does not want this fight, leave him be.
AlexanderTheGOAT - I don't give a shit about the Rousey fight Yup I honestly don't care at all, I seriously lack any interest in any WMMA.
Also, why do we have to wait so long for the rematch (if it happens)?
Dana can be so annoying with this shit, Anderson lost i could see if he wanted a rematch but he said more than once he doesn't even want to fight for the belt again. Leave him alone. He is a damn legend and current goat. If he doesn't want a fight then you shouldnt even fucking question it
this is a relief, I was really hoping there was going to be a new main event
Bofbro - Silva does not want this fight, leave him be. I wouldn't be so sure about that...

I bet Dana thinks Weidman vs Silva II will make over a million PPV buys. If thats the case and given that Ronda vs Tate II can pull over 400K buys, he has no reason to leave that matchup there.
Now if youre talking about a BW or FlW title, yeah it can be placed under this one.
