Carlos Condit vs. Demian Maia

Now ‘Ruthless’ has been dethroned by Tyron Woodley, the division is once again shifting, but hoping to capitalize will be Brazilian Jiu Jitsu ace Demian Maia.

Miocic vs. Overeem

Newly minted heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic silenced the Brazilian crowds at UFC 198 with a single punch.

At UFC 203 Miocic will face Alistair Overeem in the main event, and we are in love with this fight.

‘The Demolition Man’ has been on a tear lately, most recently knocking out Andrei Arlovski and Junior dos Santos to make it four straight wins. The Dutch kickboxer will face the prime 33-year old Miocic in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio on September 10.

Anthony Johnson and Glover Teixeira will collide in the co-main event of the upcoming UFC 202 card, with the winner eyeing a 205-pound title fight with Daniel Cormier. ”Rumble’ is coming off straight first round knockouts of Ryan Bader and Jimi Manuwa, while ‘GT’ has straight stoppages over Rashad Evans, Ovince St-Preux and Patrick Cummins.

The big question is where does McGregor go if the anti-BS cult hero Diaz can do it again.
