I made a whole new thread for this show, I got rid of the other one by accident. Plus i figured with ANOTHER new main event then why not? Honestly think that Jose Aldo's injury is good for this card, Faber-Barao is a MUCH better title fight than Aldo-Koch. Can't believe how this card turned out, it's got some good pieces to it right now but before all of the injuries it was a more solid card.​

It's just crazy how much all of these cards changed because of injury, this card originally had the potential to be really good. Now it's like an average card.

Siyar Bahadurzada has been injured, Matt Riddle is his replacement. God this card just keeps getting worse and worse.

This card is only going to sell off of the face of Faber. But... it won't sell enough. This card is just... mannn I thought the Silva/Franklin II card was weak... this card is weaker.

Do you think this card will get the worst buy rates in history?

Nope not with Faber. Not to mention that the worse buyrates would have to be 250,000. So don't think it will go that low. I give it 400,000.

It is funny I find the cards that normally generalize mix reactions always turn out to be the best ones.

Faber is about as much of a draw as Fedor, which means....He isn't a draw.

TUF ratings proved this, and this is possibly the worst card since the dark days.

I remember purposely not watching Liddell/Franklin, Mir/Cro Cop and Okami/Marquardt because the cards were pretty poor.

The main card here isn't the worst ever, actually has a few fights relevant to the division.

When you have a main event with one overrated midget and one you never even heard of, then one could say you have a weak ass card.

Okami/Marquardt was free, and atleast Chuck and Rich had actual name value. Not to mention you had Cro Cop and Patt Barry on the same card.

Mir/Cro Cop was good, Lytle and Serra, Lil Nog and Bader, but this one is just feeble inn comparison.

Whats the co-mainevent? Boetsch and Lombard? Sure one could say Lombard one win away from title shot, but against Boetsch? Seriously.

And you have that heavyweight fight against a gatekeeper and another nobody.

This card is by far the worst imo.

I really hope Barao slaps Faber like Silva did Sonnen, he's a punk little bitch.

Faber seemed like a funny guy on Joe Rogan's podcast, but yeah, I am a Barao mark and he is the goods.

I couldn't care less for this event. Nothing that makes me want to watch therefore I most likely will not be watching.
