► The
UFC chose not to renew the contract of
Sage Northcutt [
11-2 MMA,
6-2UFC]. Considering how big
Dana White was on
this kid, this is surprising. I'm sure they gave
Northcutt a sweet ass contract when they initially signed him, and he probably wanted
to go even bigger when he attempted to re-sign, and the
UFC didn't feel that he was worth it. They really do pay their fighters sh!t.

Anderson Silva says that a fight with
Conor McGregor is still a possibility.
McGregor has fought between
145 - 170
pounds and
Silva's manager says that the lowest weight
"The Spider" can make is
179 pounds. I don't see this fight happening.
Conor is too small and
Silva is too big. Seeing an overweight
Conor McGregor fight a dehydrated
Anderson Silva is not a big draw
for me. The
UFC really needs
GSP to come back and shake things up again.
► The UFC will make its debut in the Czech Republic on
February 23rd, 2019 with
UFC on ESPN+ 3.
