hubris - big step up for Ryan Couture

 

really big opportunity for him, but I think KJ might be too much for him at this point...


I like Ryan but this could get Ugly.


If Ryan puts it on KJ, he should make it in to UFC.

 

regardless, Noons - Diaz III, anyone?

Kj will take care of couture. Noons Diaz 3 would be sick! Phone Post

This is a good looking card. And yeah, Couture is going to get bloody. Tough kid though.

Billytk - Just curious, if you could bet on it what does everyone think the odds of this event actually happening and not being cancelled would be

I'll bet any amount of money this event will go on, card already lost two champs and yet they still have a very good 9 fight deep card and are continuing to announce fights.

Card is still good enough it could lose two more fights and still would go on.

Sal Penis -

Can you imagine the UFC putting a card on like this nowadays? There is no fucking way that would happen. They would give you a top fighter and a bunch of cans to fill up the rest of the card.

 

Besides the UFC on Fox this is likely the last STACKED card you will ever see in MMA. It's a sad day endeed.

They're are protecting their future UFC fighters from a loss before jumping over Phone Post

Zuffa (Dana White) obviously has no intention of moving Josh over to UFC, hence the nobody opponent/meaningless fight he is offered at the last minute to fulfill his contractual obligation.

And that is too bad.

Yep! they could get 25 TUFrs for his price.

So they offer him a fight on an already deep card that has a high payroll that means they have no interest in signing him to the UFC?

What about DC vs Staring? Does the UFC have no interest in bringing DC over? Looks like he is in a meaningless fight with a nobody opponent as well.

Or maybe its they owe him one last fight, Sf has no HW div, they arent gonna bring in a top guy for this card so they are completing his contract and when SF folds they will talk.

He might not end up in the UFC because he will want alot of money but this fight doesnt mean they dont want him.

As much as I would love Barnett/Mir or Barnett/Werdum....

Barnett getting a Spike TV Bellator/TNA Double Deal would be very interesting and big for them.

Barnett vs Hale or Thiago Santos or Prindle in Bellator interests you?

I guess its slightly better than fighting whoever he is fighting on this SF card but not much better.

I think his card is to build momentum for these guys like DC, Barnett, Mousasi, Roger, etc for when they come to UFC!

Why are they not having DC v Barney again? If that's the fight that was supposed to happen? What changed? If they are on the same card again ? Phone Post

DC already beat Barnette. The original fight was DC vs. Mir, but Mir pulled out with an injury.

Dana White seems to be able to get over his beefs, he did it many times, so i hope we can see Josh Barnett in the UFC.

So many great fights for him.

Barnett-Mir
Barnett-Werdum
Barnett-Roy Nelson
Barnett-Big Nog

If they're picking Duffy back up after 2 fights in 2 years pretty sure signing Barnett is in the works. Not like there's a lot of depth at HW. Phone Post

really big opportunity for him, but I think KJ might be too much for him at this point...


I think this is a fight to determine if they want to bring Couture into the UFC.

Maybe they dont just want to bring him in because of his name, they want to see if he really has what it takes to swim in the shark tank LW div. If he beats Noons that def tells the UFC he can be a UFC LW atleast on the lower/mid level.

If he loses would they still bring him over?

 

great question, I'm not sure he'd make it right in, but I could 100% see him getting highlighted on a season of TUF...

Well $ conquers all...



Barnetts contract will be 10x that of Duffees.
