They are on the prelims, I guess they have to find someone to fight her. The 4 lbs is also to get to the 1lb over limit you can have. So, she was actually 5lbs over.

wait.. why is the womans champion fighting in the prelims?
this is a non-title fight?

she's just slumming it?
she needs the $???
 
lets see if DC will gas out like he did w/Jon Jones fight.

I still predict rumble winning but it'll be much closer if DC gained +2 to cardio
 
Nothing but respect for rumble. That guy was a beast. Once his cardio goes up, he's going to be unstoppable.

DC took a hard shot in the 1st. Surprised he was able to get up from that.
That would've flattened out anyone else.
 
Damn, that's one of the best UFCs I've ever seen. Entertaining from the start of PPV right through to the end.
 
I want vitortrt back!

Man, DC took some big shots. I knew DC won before I watched it, but even as I'm watching it I'm thinking how is he gonna win this fight. I dont even think DC connected on any strikes standing up..all the damage was from some elbows on the ground and just wearing out Rumble with wrestling.

I'm actually curious if Jones would have tried to bang with Rumble to continue that streak of beating contenders at their own game. We know Jones can take shots, but I dont think anyone wants to trade with Rumble. Also makes me think Jones and DC are just way above everyone else in the division. DC more than likely would do the same thing to Gus, and it really does seem like Jones just took Gus lightly the first time the fought.

One last thing...striking how different Vitor looks off of TRT. Not only is he much less ripped, but he doesnt have that roid rage-like aggressiveness that he did against Hendo and Rockhold. If he would have had the extra TRT power and quickness he would have KO'd Weidman.

hopefully Jones is back soon so he can beat DC and get his belt back. Nothing against DC, but I think Rumble beats whoever he faces next and I WANT to see Rumble Vs Bones so badly.
 
Hope DC enjoys the fake belt and answering what-if questions about Jones for the foreseeable future.

yeah, I feel bad that DC is viewed as a belt warmer till he fights jones.
he seems like a great guy.

When is Jones suspension over?


I still think people feel the same with Chris Weidman since the first win against Silva.

A good card for sure.. Andre Orloski looked good Belfort needs a new haircut..
