He said they erased his records and removed him from the Hall of Fame. They did neither, he is still in the Hall of Fame and some of his wins didn't count towards LHW in the UFC, they were counted as MW bouts.

Tito's career is ending exactly how everyone expected, a total car crash. Shlemenko is very small middleweight too. He could easily fight at 170, but good on Tito for winning.

Did anything think that was slowest show ever? I picked up a stream about the time for the Heavyweight tourney final and it was easily after midnight. Then they took a huge break before the next fight. I passed out and missed the last three fights.

Yeah the pacing was awful, they were trying to sell guy's stories in between fights. Uh Bellator we are already watching the PPV, no need to sell these guys to us anymore lol

UFC pacing on free tv is the worst. I DVR and watch the next day.

Yeah, maybe that is why I thought it was so slow. I DVR anything on Fox, FS1, etc. and start watching an hour or so late so I can fast forward.

Renan Barao vs. T.J. Dillashaw
for UFC bantamweight title
Daniel Cormier vs. Dan Henderson
Jake Ellenberger vs. Robbie Lawler
Takeya Mizugaki vs. Francisco Rivera
James Krause vs. Jamie Varner

I really hope Hendo wins though.

Barao
Cormier
Lawler
Mizugaki
Varner

It'd be nice for Dillashaw to pull off the upset though.

I have the same picks as you guys, I really like the card though. Lawler vs Ellenberger should steal the show. DC better not be sleeping on Hendo, he is still very dangerous. Shogun was killing him before he got caught, all it takes is one shot with him. It's a pleasure to watch Barao, just incredible and seems to just get better and better.

His last big fight he laid an egg. Lawler will put him to sleep if he fights like he did against Rory.

Yeah he looked awful against Rory, couldn't pull the trigger. If he does that against Robbie he's going to get hurt.

Barao but I love Dillashaw
Cormier (should be an awesome battle)
Ellenberger (I think Lawler made his title run and lost and will go back to not caring)
Miz
Varner

I don't blame Ellenberger for that terrible fight as much as I blame Rory

I question how Ellenberger will deal with adversity, sort of like Vitor. When he is the hammer, he looks unstoppable, but the minute he becomes the nail he doesn't handle it well at all. I'll take Lawler in that fight.

Also like Barao (maybe pound for pound GOAT now) and Cormier.

I agree with everything you said about Ellenberger, I don't see him beating Robbie in a stand up fight(which I think it will be).

Finally caught Matt Brown vs. Erick Silva last night. Wow... what a fight. Easily one of the best fights I've ever seen, if not the best. Erick Silva is very​ talented; and Matt Brown is a tough SOB. The crowd was ELECTRIC.

Can't believe Hendo is a 10 to 1 underdog, so disrespectful to the legend.
