Rumors rumors and more rumors.

We saw something big is happening with Khabib (GSP?)
Apparently, a team mate from Khabibs Dagestan leaked some information that the UFC is shutting down the 125 lb division to make room for a new 165lb division, and right away have a tournament for the first champion.

GSP
Khabib
Askren
Diaz

Some potential names that were thrown in.

Thoughts? Is this happening?

OR Do you more believe that we will get just GSP vs Khabib for 155?

Kevin Lee will be in that tournament like swimwear. Hes been wanting to get a hand on Khabib for years and this is probably the only way that will happen.

Khabib felt those shots in round 3 and wants no part of a motivated Conor
Whoa whoa WHOA!!!! FLAG ON THE PLAY!!!! The "Motivated" moniker is and can ONLY be held by ONE man....



There is NO ONE more motivated than him.... Well.... Other than him in his NEXT match

UFC finally bringing in Gomi Weight!

Time to sign Takanori Gomi who frequently fought around 162-165 back in his PrideFC Reign

Thoughts? About fucking time the UFC brought back a Tournament!

165 is a perfect weight for guys weighing 200lbs trying to drop down.

If done right this Tournament could be epic! But I’m not expecting much ..actually I’m expecting the UFC to drop the ball and make this a 4 man Tourny instead of an epic 16 man tournament that would start at the beginning of 2019 and end at the 2019 New Years Eve Card leading into 2020 with a new Champ!!


This tournament would be what we were suppose to get prior to UFC purchase of Pride:

This will be proof positive that they are actually concerned about what Bellator is doing

Dang, good call on Gomi Weight. Maybe they can throw Hellboy Hansen in.

I can't see GSP making Gomi Weight more than once.
