Busy Weekend. 2 separate UFC cards.
Friday 7pm (FightPass) - Invicta FC 20 Saturday Bellator is going to try to go head to head with the UFC, but their main event may be good enough to flip back and forth. 11:30am (Fightpass) - UFC Fight Night (Afternoon?) - Mousasi vs Hall 5pm (Fightpass/FS1 at 6pm) - UFC Fight Night - Bader vs Nogueira 8pm (SpikeTV) - Bellator 165 - Chandler vs Henderson Sunday What, you aren't burnt out? Doesn't look like there's anything, so football it is. |

Apparently in New York you can be suspended for not showing up to a weigh-in. Kelvin Gastelum has been suspended 6 months. The UFC was planning on subbing him in for Rashad Evans in UFC 206, but thats off now.

Might be a dumb question but why doesn't Gastelum just fight in other states?

Did anyone see Cowboy's Instagram post today? It looked like a fake injury.

Most athletic commissions will honor other states suspensions. Even international suspensions, plus if the UFC tried to sneak him in somewhere, the NYAC will not be favorable in upcoming events in terms of suspensions etc.

Going to an unregulated area or an Indian casino isn't much of an option because if a fighter fights despite a universally-recognized suspension, he can pretty much forget about ever fighting in a regulated state ever again, and the promoter will be in serious trouble with the commissions. Its all essential to ensure that suspensions mean something. So given all that, if an AC wants to suspend you your only option is to convince them not to suspend you, or fight them in court. |

The American Kickboxing Academy strikes again.
DC is hurt (for the 2nd time in 2016!) and is out of 206. That card was already weak, and now its a hot mess. It would however be good for free TV, so hopefully the UFC moves it to FS1 or something, but yeah I'm not paying for that shit. I might go to the bar to watch Cowboy if its still PPV. Hey UFC, may have been nice to have GSP as a backup plan for a PPV in Canada. Just sayin' |

Well played, UFC.
Max Holloway vs Anthony Pettis is now the main event of UFC 206, for the interim Featherweight belt But wait, isn't Aldo is the interim champ? Not anymore. Conor McGregor has given up the FW title, and Jose Aldo is now the FW champion. |

If aldo is the champ why do they need an interim champ? maybe I'm not understanding something.
