They gotta add another main card fight to that card. It's fun, but it will get swallowed up by 200 and 202.

this card is barely ppv worthy. if lalwer/woodley fell through there is no way they can make this a ppv. lawler/woodley and brown/ellenberger the only good fights on the main card and prelims have gamebred/pearson

The main card is solid. The prelims are pretty good. I couldn't care less about the pre-prelims though.

Scoggins is normally a really entertaining cat. Him vs Creepy should be pretty good for little people. Perez/Rivera should be a fun slobberknocker kind of fight. Brown should run through the current version of Ellenberger. Lawler is always must see TV, even against Woodley. Namajunas vs Kowalkiewicz should be about as fun of a fight as WMMA can offer. Herman/Krylov should be fun. Pearson/Masvidal has potential to be fun, assuming that Masvidal doesn't get too stuck in strict counter-punching mode.

Doesn't feel like a PPV at all but if this had been on Fox instead of Holm/Shevchenko we'd all be pretty pumped for it.

Robbie, Rose, and Brown. That's really the card for me.

You know, this card isn't as bad as I first thought.

Brown vs Ellenberger should be good.

Always enjoy watching Scoggins fight, hope he destroys McCall and keeps moving up the ranks.

Lawler is never in a boring fight, so.

Pearson vs Masvidal will be a high quality display of MMA boxing and is the best fight on the card outside the main event, which itself includes an inactive fighter who does not deserve to be there.

The rest of the main card truly is a pile of dicks. None of those fights deserve to be on a main card except for the chicks (and I don't like WMMA personally). Fun fact, 4 of the 6 male fighters are coming off losses and boast recent records of 1-5, 1-4, 1-3 and 2-3. The two guys who actually won their last fights are both 2-2 in their last 4. They combine for what would be an underwhelming fight night card and a laughable PPV card.

Good card, but for a ppv it's terrible.
I look forward to Robbie/Woodley and Gamebred here.
What's Ray Borg's nickname?
If it's "Resistance is futile" I'm really looking forward to that one.
I'm all about substance.

I am going to be out of town so I won't see this until Monday night, but looking forward to following along here. The Scoggins- McCall fight should be a good one (I think Scoggins takes it, I give him a distinct striking advantage and I don't see Ian taking him down); and the Lawler- Woodly fight will hopefully decide who Wonderboy fights for the title in his next fight.

With the way this year has been, is anyone thinking Woodley might upset? He's saying the right things.....
Still going Lawler especially if it goes past the 2nd round.
