I hope it is too! Ariel is the best journalist in MMA imo, or are you talking about someone else?

Mma gods don't fuck around. After that foty candidate yesterday it was obvious some shit would happen on tonight's card. What a shame.
I was talking about Dizz, Ariel is legit.

Ariel is reporting it and a lying scumbag just tweeted that the Nunes fight is on.
Ah, i was also confused by your post.

Julianna Pena is there if they want to do an interim title fight.
Yup. You can't fight if you're in the hospital. Doctors won't allow it even if she says she's ok.

They did that check in a month early with the 214 headliners. Looked like a step in the right direction.

Someone page a mod to change the title
Helwani is a lying scumbag? Is this you, Dana?
He's probably talking about Dizz who originally reported the news
Check the thread.
Things like this, fights getting scrubbed, are the reason I don't buy until the main card starts lol.

UFC having a bad streak. Isn't this supposed to be their biggest card of the year? It wasn't exactly exciting before this news.
Lmao this card was straight up cursed now that I think about it. Originally it was supposed to have tj/cody and cowboy/lawler on the main card. That's 3 huge pull outs.
UFC 214 is DC v JJ 2

I haven't seen this many pullouts since the last adult film I watched where the man pulled his penis out of the women before ejaculating.
Good grief.
A least it's a stacked card. I wonder if they'll move than Travis Browne prelim fight to the main card?

That usually causes issues with Fox so I doubt it.
It's too late to add anything. I've never seen a cancellation of a fight this last minute.

Ill still be getting it but this is a pretty big blow. There was a chance Shevchenko could beat Amanda, and they are both aggressive on the feet. That was probably going to be an exciting fight
That's actually 214 next week.
That card is insane.

I know about 214, but they usually try and make international fight week the big one and it's also this timeframe that UFC 100 and 200 were in.
International fight week is cursed. UFC 200 was terrible.

The original lineup for 213 was
Bisping vs GSP (never officially announced for this card but this was the one they were pushing for)
Cody vs TJ
Cerrone vs Lawler
It was gonna be insane but injuries crushed it

Yup my mistake. There is literally an event every weekend so got a bit confused.
