When Joe Silva has a night on the sauce…
It will be some time before we learn of the biggest fight card in UFC history but that’s not stopping all MMA fans from dreaming.
Conor McGregor is an almost certainty to be on the card and will probably defend his featherweight title against either Jose Aldo or Frankie Edgar.
But other than ‘The Notorious’ it’s difficult to get an idea about who else the promotion will want present for the historic July 9th event. Miesha Tate? Robbie Lawler? A Georges St-Pierre return?
Well some creative prankster has taken a stab at putting together an absolutely mental main card for UFC 200.
According to the chancer, it will be headlined by a lightweight bout between Conor McGregor and Brock Lesnar although Lesnar may struggle with the weight cut.
CM Punk is getting a big fight for his UFC, and MMA, debut. He has never competed in any sport, even at amateur level, so it will be a tough ask to get the W over the veteran Nick Diaz. And somehow it’s for the welterweight title.
Luke Rockhold is obviously going to move up in weight this summer to take on Jon Jones, who is predicted to beat Daniel Cormier and regain his light heavyweight crown.
In the promotion’s first ever cross-gender bout, Ronda Rousey is expected to take on bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz in what promises to be a controversial clash.
Opening up the main card is an absolute whopper of a heavyweight meeting between UFC president Dana White and commentator Joe Rogan in a classic match-up of styles. White began boxing at 17 years of age while Rogan holds black belts in Taekwondo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
There’s no way the real card will be an improvement on this.
