wow the guy on the end of the press conference completely obliterated Alvarez, its a bit sad he s the champ so we have to watch this fight when Conor can be facing someone much more entertaining to say the least
if Conor really would make 40mil this year, he s probably the most profitable fighter in any fighting sport for the year? Considering heavy weight boxing title rematch doesnt seem to be happening with Klitschko vs Fury being pushed again indefinetely
Wouldnt be surprised if he makes like 2-3 more matches after this one and then retire like a boss, would still want to fight Diaz for sure at least, too much ego involved

Alvarez gonna get his Philly chin cracked.
He's gonna panick when Conor doesn't easily get held against the cage in R1 like Pettis did, and then he'll taste true power.

Updated DraftKings rules
As a valued DraftKings user, we'd like to inform you of changes to our current MMA game. Beginning 9/29/2016, MMA rosters will expand from 5 fighters to 6 fighters. In addition, see the updated scoring for MMA listed below:
Previous rules vs. New rules
Significant Strikes 0.5 pts to 0.5 pts

Takedowns 2 pts to 5 pts
Reversals 2 pts to 5 pts

Win in Round 4 40 pts to 40 pts
Win in Round 5 40 pts to 40 pts
Win By Decision 25 pts to 30 pts
We listened to your feedback and felt that moving to 6 fighter rosters would reduce ties and improve the overall MMA player-experience. The stat changes above aim to award more points for grapplers and wrestlers, increase opportunity for more strategy in the MMA game, and further reduce lineup overlap.
These changes will take effect for UFC Fight Night: Dodson vs Lineker on 10/01/2016. All MMA contests going forward will have these rule changes in place.
Off topic:
Tyson Fury's probe just got confirmed to contain cocaine, so he s gonna be stripped ot all titles and a heavyweight boxing match will surely not happen with Klitschko.
Thats passively really great for Conor as well, as he becomes the top "bad boy" in the fighting scene basically, could lead to good marketing profits. Companies do like to promote bad boys, not ones caught with illegal substances however :/

BJ Penn got injured, so he's out of his headlining fight with Ricardo Lamas in the Philippines.
The UFC couldn't find a replacement for Penn in time, so they cancelled the entire event. This means we won't have UFC for 4 weeks after UFC 204 is over.

DC vs Rumble Co-Main event at UFC 206, which kind of put the question who will be the main event? Could Ronda be making a comeback possibly? With McGregor fighting previous event, Heavyweight belt just passing and JBJ still being suspended I dont see how can anyone turn a better PPV than DC & Rumble other than Rousey ?

Yep even forbes have an article about it. Seems like they are finalizing the deal and will announce it by the end of next week if things go well, kind of weird how the UFC basically " announced " it by putting DC vs Rumble as Co ME

I wouldnt be so sure, I mean, GSP has been out for a long time and Silva is bigger and stronger... and also shittier than ever
Silva wins the fight imo if that happens. Silva is too strong to be controlled by GSP the whole fight, Cormier is like a heavyweight and he was hurt with the spider kicks. I think Silva by TKO
