This is just ridiculous. Why would anyone accept any of this? Obviously its great as fans but its not fair to the fighters.

Kamshot was scared to cut weight. Knew he'd gas out and get tapped.

Tony Nate will be 5 rounds main event.

Kevin Holland and Leech are the hold ups. Cancel the Leach fight IMO, make Holland Khazmat happen and bring some other fight up to the main card.

It's a million times better than Khazmat/Diaz.


Diaz/Ferguson is a Fight Night Main Event. Not a PPV main event. Diaz and Ferguson are a combined 3-7 in their last 10 fights. Holland is an exciting fighter but not an elite fighter.

Diaz/Khazmat was a one way destruction. Nate Diaz is a draw no matter what his record is, Tony is the perfect dance partner for his final fight in the UFC, his first round against Chandler was impressive then Chandler kicked his head clean off.. Diaz nearly finished the 170 champ in the final moments just like how Leon got the belt. This fight is going to be beautiful.

Holland is really freaking good at 170, Khazmat seems to have lost focus recently, the hype has gotten to him and Holland could win.

This event was a bonafide Fight Night card from the start. Only thing that even gave it PPV cred is Nate. This whole thing was booked like absolute **** which means all the fights will be bangers 8-)

Khamzat allowed the hype to get to him. He’s more interested in the celebrity status it seems.

Tony vs Diaz in a double retirement fight and Holland and Khamzat seems too good to pass up.
If Khamzat turns it down after Kicking Holland in the chest the day before, he looks weakkkk

I don't want to see Holland take a loss when Khamzat didn't bother attempting to make weight.

I'd love to see how much money Nate is demanding to still fight. Got Dana over a barrel right now

Who knows what went down. Medical issues during a weight cut aren't a little thing.

Don't get me wrong. I think it will be a fun fight. But it's not a PPV main event. It's probably one of the worst PPV main events of all-time. Sure, Diaz is a big name but he's not an elite fighter neither is Tony. And I don't rate Chandler highly and winning rounds doesn't mean much. Tony hasn't won a fight in like 3-4 years.

Holland hasn't beaten anyone at WW aside from Means and Oliveira. However I do think he's got the potential to catch Khamzat. Khamzat is very easy to hit.

I actually am excited for the fights. My issue is it's not a PPV worthy card. It's like a really good Fight Night card. LOL.

It’s really not. It’s worse than Diaz Chimaev. Kevin gonna get wrecked bad.



But Nate’s gonna get to go out in top. **** yeah and **** the UFC. This all blew up in their face. Should have just done Dustin from the start.

Man’s posting fat pics of him and till online with caption “ it’s his fault”


Khamzat don’t give a ****



Apparently he was out late eating and drinking sparkling water night before weigh in.
Maybe he didn’t intend to make weight. Maybe he’d a good dude for saving Nate’s life
