It's finally here. The last major event before UFC 200.
I have to say my excitement for this event took a huge hit when Weidman went out. The first Rockhold/Weidman was one of the most exciting MMA fights I've ever seen (if not my favorite overall). I'm a huge fan of Rockhold and was looking forward to the rematch. Both guys had so much to fight for and it would have undoubtedly been a classic. Oh well.
So what's everyone's thoughts/predictions for this weekend?

Yeah, I was REALLY looking forward to Rockhold/Weidman 2 too. Having said that though (as a Brit!) I'm thrilled that Bisping is finally getting a title shot... I know he has his haters, but I've always enjoyed his fights and trash-talk - and it would be amazing for MMA in this country if he could somehow pull off the win. I'm not going to get too carried away though... it's a HUGE ask - Rockhold's going to tough to beat for anyone.
I'm looking forward to Cruz/Faber 3 too... I'm hoping for a stoppage victory by Cruz, to cement their feud. I do like Faber too though.

I don't hate Bisping, although I love Anderson Silva and I hated to see him lose that fight (the end of that one round, damn). But I know Bisping has been wanting a title shot for a LONG TIME, and now he's finally getting it. Although, I just don't see Rockhold losing. Then again, with all the crazy things I've seen in sports in general the last few years, anything is possible I guess. I'm completely with you on Cruz and Faber. I like them both. But Cruz is just a ing badass to me. It's so tragic the number of injuries that he has had and how they always seemed to happen right when he was surging. However, like a true champion, he hasn't let it stop him. And he just keeps coming back and picking up where he left off. That takes an unbelievable amount of heart and dedication.

Like I said on twitter, I have an extremely itching suspicion that UFC 199 is gonna be a night for upsets. I said that before the news of Rockhold's MCL tear and Cruz's swollen hand. I'm picking Bisping and Faber. I'd love to see Hendo win his last possible fight but Lombards a killer ( In the first 2 minutes). He accumulated a ton of head damage in his last fight and Hendo's got a puncher's chance. Can't wait. Really want Guida to win in his Prelim fight too.

Word on the street is that the Diaz/McGregor 2 fight is being finalized for UFC 202.
ALSO!!
Mark Hunt could possibly be fighting Brock Lesnar??? I've got Hunt by KO EASILY.

Clay was arguably winning that one but ended up taking an ugly knee with 20 seconds left. Ended up KO'ed

Damn. Wanted Guida to win that prelim...
But Dan Henderson!!! Woooow!
And Brock Lesnar?? How is that even possible? Is he not under WWE contract? If he does indeed fight, I hope he wins!

Hope Brock has been training. I'm a big fan, but he was a very limited fighter if he couldn't take you down and hammer fist.

Happy for Cruz. I still like Faber too, though. Ooooh man I still have goosebumps from Brock's confirmation. At first, I thought there was no way Vince would ever sign off on that. But it really makes sense. Dana White did him a solid by allowing Ronda to appear at WM. Vince is just returning the favor. I think they're trying to build a relationship because they finally realized that they can have a mutually beneficial relationship. Now, let's get on to Luke mother ing Rockhold!
