That's great. He doesn't deserve as many main events as he gets, but he's easy to root for and good on the mic, so why not.

Glad Dan Hooker got his visa to fight.

Volk-Ortega round 3 was one of the best rounds I've ever seen. Amazing fight.

freaking hilarious, this dude would freak with your head so much if you were in the cage with him

“If you’ve never heard of him:

Really fun rewatching the end of the Jacare fight now that I know what he was saying.

UFC with some incredible #content to end the year

If you don’t like mma or are a causal fan, find a buddy that’s ordering UFC 268 or UFC 269 and go drink at their house for the night, you won’t be disappointed.


UFC 267 - Sat, Oct. 30th

Main Event - Light Heavyweight Title Fight: Jan Blachowicz (C) vs Glover Teixeira (#1)
Bantamweight Interim Title Fight: Petyr Yan (#1) vs Corey Sandhagen(#3)
LW: Islam Makhachev (#5) vs. Dan Hooker (#6)


UFC 268: Usman vs Covington - Sat, Nov. 6th

Lightweight Title Fight: Kamaru Usman (C) vs. Colby Covington (#1)
Women’s Strawweight Title Fight: Thug Rose (C) vs. Zhang Weili (#1)

UFC 269: Oliveira vs Poirier - Sat, Dec. 11th

Lightweight Title Bout: Charles Oliveira (C) vs. Dustin Poirier (#1)

*  Edwards v Masvidal should be electric. I knew there was bad blood but recently read an article about how there was an altercation and Masvidal attacked Edwards backstage after a UFC event, in London, and Masvidal had to be snuck out and flown out of the country.


Most looking forward to watching Petyr Yan, Makhachev, and O’Malley fight.

Amanda Nunes might have a weiner

268 is absolutely STACKED.  Cannot wait for that event.

[Derek Smalls]

I feel Edwards vs Masvidal won't live up to the hype. Edwards should beat him, and Edwards doesn't put on the most exciting fights. That said, I bet there is a good leadup to that fight, and if Edwards does put him away, his stock might be high enough where the UFC finally gives him a title shot.

268 is insane on paper. Gaethje vs anyone is worth the price of admission. Weili-Namajunas is an amazing fight. Usman-Covington was an amazing fight the first time, even though a lot of people thought it would suck when they first fought each other. I hate Colby, but the dude is a great fighter. Usman is the king, but Colby is one of the few with a shot against him.
