AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Man, I had high hopes for the ESPN+ stuff. I'm not down to pay money to watch commercials during the fights. Btw, I felt like we all knew Greg Hardy was going to throw that knee.
Only so much you can do once age starts creeping up on you, that is unless they are doing TRT, just ask Vitor

Jon Jones or Anthony Smith ?
I'd like to see Smith finish it, I'm tired of all the picogram nonsense.
I dont see Usman taking Woodleys belt....
I was actually talking to a friend about Jon Jones the other day and I belive with or without this doping violation he's the best light heavyweight walking in the ufc at the moment trust me this is coming from somone who doesn't not care to see him fight anymore, I mean once DC left that division for HW I really don't see too much competition for Jones there, now if Somone who has had issues making weight and wants a championship belt were to move up in weight *cough*Yoel Romero*cough* that fight would interest me more than a Jones/DC 3
And as for Woodley, I see him staying that champ for a few more fights, Im excited to see how Askren will do against ufc level competition, I'm hoping to see him rise up and get a title shot
Also rumors of Cain retiring after tonight if things "don't go as he likes" by that I think he's gearing up for a WWE career like Rousey, which would be a godsend for WWE seeing as they could do the rematch between "baddest man on the planet" and the man who ripped through him in 1 round but on Brock's turf, the build up could be marketing gold for them, I mean I'd be sad to see him leave for that but hey as long as he'd be getting paid well he deserves that, hell after those JDS wars he deserves to be as rich as Connor

Gah... Fireworks out of Ngannou! It was kind of a sad match to make though. I really want to see Ngannou rocket-launch some more heads into orbit, but I didn't want one of those heads to be Cain's.
i'd say we will see Cain again in 6 months maybe. At least DC doesnt have to worry about dropping the Heavyweight Belt just yet. I wonder if Ngannou's power and reach could outplay DC's wrestling? It would probably go the way all DC's big fights go, clinch, uppercut, takedown, grind them out. Can't say its a bad strategy, just not exciting.
If that hadnt happened it would have been a better match.
That knee twist happened after Ngannou made contact, it's hard to see, but when watching a replay keep an eye on Ngannou's right fist
Me being a Cain fan wanted to belive different, but after rewatching it and in slow motion you can see that right fist make contact, Crain's head snap, then his knees give out
The submission stoppage was a big controversy, lots of people saying it was early but in Herb Dean's defense from the position I seen from the fight I would of probably called it the same, there's a point when Lawler's arm drops from its position and looks like it goes limp, then the stoppage occurs only to find out that Lawler wasn't out
