This should actually be a solid/fun card. I don't see how Manuwa has any chance in hell at beating Gustafsson, but the dude has some scary KO power and could find a home for it (it's MMA! I'm a big fan of Melvin, hope he puts MJ to sleep.

Gustafsson's going to get poked in the eye for a "No Contest" in RD 2. CALLING IT! lol
Jones vs Cormier later this year.
LOL, that's true, it's crazy... Although I didn't watch his fight against Ryan Jimmo, the stoppage against Kyle Kingsbury DID come from Manuwa's own hands, so wasn't as crazy as the injury against Diabate.
Predicting Manuwa wins via TKO (injury) with Gustafsson dislocating his shoulder, similar to what happened with the Korean Zombie. Speaking of which, we should all hope he can come back healthy and ready to fight at a 100%.
Also pretty pumped to watch Choi Doo Ho fight in the UFC at long last after he finished off a bunch of opponents in dominating fashion in his last 4 fights. The era of the Korean MMA fighters!
Hi, I'm wondering if there are any Canadian here who knows whats the situation with these FightPass cards in Canada?
So I remember the first one was Saffiedine vs Lim, in Singapore, and I saw that one aired non-live on SportsNet on the evening of that night. But the last one, Kim vs Hathaway, I didn't see it on SportsNet anywhere. But then this Saturday I see again that SportsNet is airing Gustafsson vs Manuwa live. So then my question is, is SportsNet going to air "some" of these FightPass events, or are they going to air all of them, or am I missing something here? Thanks.

I am really pumped for Latifi, man! He stepped up so big for the UFC in that fight vs Mousasi and I was happy they gave him another shot. Now to see him with a full camp, training closely with Alexander, and to take the W with a first round finish. Awesome!
edit: Damn, I love Gustafsson. I hope he destroys Manuwa and goes to get his belt!!! >_< edit2: That dude wanted no part of Gunnar after that ground and pound, man. Gave him that submission haha
Wait...Why did Manuwa have an American flag? Why did they say he was from Sacramento, CA? So confused with him. His Wiki says he was born in Nigeria and is Nigerian-English...

lol I already mentioned that earlier in this thread. They fucked up and gave him the American flag.
Good fight, and awesome job by Gustafsson. That knee followed by that upper cut was sick, would have put a lot of guys to sleep. Manuwa actually impressed me though. He defended well on the ground and on the feet he's scary for anyone. Looking forward to Jones-Gustafsson 2: The Viking's Revenge.
Manuwa certainly was looking a lot better than Gustaf in the stand-up. Everything Gustaf threw he just got counter-punched a lot harder. But then again Gustaf didn't take a lot of serious damage so I guess it doesn't matter.

Nah, stoppage was fine, imo. Gus caught him with that knee, followed by that upper cut and he was out. If he would have hit the mat and rolled, or tried to pull guard or something it's different, but he hit the mat and ate two more hammer fists to the face. Honestly, he would have dropped a lot harder if they weren't some what clinched up. At the end he was starting to go for something, but refs need to look into the future a little bit. Manuwa was going to do nothing but take more damage, a lot more damage, because Gus had a controlling position and a very hurt opponent.

Yeah you're right, I just wanted to see a longer main event LOL.
Regardless Jon Jones vs Alexander Gustafsson 2
I CANT WAIT. Jones just gotta dispose of Glover and we got ourselves a REMATCH! Get HYPED!
