Five Reasons UFC 205 Is The Biggest Card Ever

We are now just days away from the landmark UFC 205 event, as the card is set for this Saturday night (Nov. 12, 2016) live on pay-per-view (PPV) from the famed Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York. The UFC has stacked the deck from top to bottom with this card, and it’s

The UFC has stacked the deck from top to bottom with this card, and it’s safe to say that it will be a special night for sure. In fact, it has been billed as the biggest card in promotional history.

Let’s take a look at five reasons why it just might be:

The UFC’s New York City Debut

To start things off, UFC 205 will mark the UFC’s inaugural show at Madison Square Garden, an arena that the promotion has attempted to hold an event at for years. With the sport finally being legalized in the Empire State last year, the UFC will finally get to take the sport of mixed martial arts to the one of the most infamous arenas in the history of combat sports, and because of that, the card has an added pop to it.

The UFC has promised fight fans for years that once it was able to enter New York, a blockbuster show would soon follow, and it looks as if the promotion has owned up to it’s promise with one of the greatest cards of all-time.

Tyron Woodley: My Last Loss Was My Last Loss

Reigning UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley will look to make the first defense of his 170-pound title in the co-main event of this weekend’s (Nov. 12, 2016) UFC 205, but many feel as if he’ll have a tough test in front of him, as he’s set to take on the surging Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, a

While many feel as if Thompson has the tools necessary to dethrone “The Chosen One”, Woodley doesn’t plan on surrendering his strap any time soon:

“It’s my time,” Woodley told MMAJunkie at today’s UFC 205 open workouts. “I’m not losing to anybody. My last loss was my last loss.”

Despite coming off of a brutal first round knockout of Robbie Lawler last July, Woodley has been deemed the underdog against Thompson, although he isn’t bothered by that, as it actually adds ‘fuel’ to his ‘fire’:

“They like to fuel my fire,” Woodley said of the oddsmakers. “I’ve been the underdog my last five fights and I’ve won them. … I think (my fight is) just pure domination, pure violence. I plan on annihilating everyone in this division and I’m going to prove everyone wrong.”

Do you expect Woodley to retain his title on Saturday at the famed Madison Square Garden in New York, or will “Wonderboy” walk away as the new undisputed champion?

Joanna Jedrzejczyk Ready To Retire In A ‘Few Years’

Reigning UFC strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk will look to make the fourth defense of her 115-pound title when she meets fellow undefeated Polish fighter Karolina Kowalkiewicz on the main card of this weekend’s (Nov. 12, 2016) UFC 205 from Madison Square Garden in New York. While “Joanna Champion” has seemed to improve each and every

While “Joanna Champion” has seemed to improve each and every time out, she may not be around too much longer as she recently told MMAJunkie that she may be ready to retire in a ‘few years’ and head into motherhood:

“I had the thought in my head a year ago, two years ago I was like, ‘I want to fight two more years,’ and then this year I was like, ‘Maybe I’ll fight to next year or next few years and be done with that. When (I retire) I’m going to be the perfect wife or perfect mother. I want to be the same, (giving) 100 percent. I know I’m not retiring in two months or beginning of the next year because then I will want to come back and have a fight with someone who is important. My goal is to make my dreams come true, my goals come true, and be undefeated. Fight for the next few fights and then see what’s going to happen. That’s my goal.”

Retiring on top and retiring in the prime of the year has always seemed to be a tough thing for a fighter, and it may be tough for the 29-year-old 12-0 champion, but only time will tell.

Would you be surprised to see “Joanna Champion” hang up her gloves in only a few years time?

Five Reasons Conor McGregor Will Destroy Eddie Alvarez

UFC 205 is slated to take place on Nov. 12 from the famed Madison Square Garden in New York. The event will mark the promotion’s first trip to the Empire State since the sport was legalized there last year, and the card is stacked to say the least. The main event will feature a highly

The main event will feature a highly anticipated lightweight title fight between reigning 155-pound champion Eddie Alvarez and featherweight kingpin Conor McGregor. McGregor will look to make history, as he hopes to become the first man in promotional history to hold two titles at one time.

While his loyal fan base undoubtedly has his back, many feel as if McGregor is in over his head against the battle tested lightweight champion.

With that being said, it’s interesting to flip the script and take a look at five reasons why the “Notorious” one may very well destroy the lightweight boss.

McGregor’s Power

This is the most clear path to victory for McGregor, in my opinion.
The Irishman has proven to be an elite level striker and his power has led him to great successes within the sport, as 17 of his 20 career victories have come by way of knockout. In addition to that, six of his seven UFC featherweight victories have come by way of T/KO.

It is important to note that Alvarez will be the bigger man in this fight, but McGregor has competed at 155-pounds before and has seen success in doing so. Also, McGregor proved that not only he can get his hands on bigger men, but that he can drop them as well in his rematch with Nate Diaz last August. Diaz, a bigger, stronger natural lightweight, was dropped multiple times by the “Notorious” one early on in that bout.

If McGregor can indeed hit Alvarez, “The Underground King” may find himself in trouble, especially given our next reason…

Donald Cerrone: Robbie Lawler Would Be ‘A Hell Of A Fight’

Donald Cerrone is set to take on No. 5-ranked Kelvin Gastelum at this Saturday’s (Nov. 12, 2016) UFC 205 from New York, but he was originally scheduled to take on No. 1-ranked former champion Robbie Lawler, although Lawler was forced to withdraw from the bout shortly after agreeing to the terms. Despite being disappointed that

Despite being disappointed that the fight was called off, “Cowboy” hasn’t lost any respect for the “Ruthless” one, and he admits that a bout with Lawler would be ‘a hell of a fight’:

“I still respect the sh-t out of the dude. He’s a good friend of mine, I have more respect for him calling me first and letting me know, that tells you how he is. This is a guy that would be a hell of a fight,” Cerrone said via MMA Fighting.

When it was reported that Lawler had pulled out of the fight, fans were a bit confused as it wasn’t exactly made clear why he wasn’t able to fight. In fact, a reason has still yet to be given, although Cerrone feels as if it has to do with the fact that the ex-champion is coming off of a brutal knockout loss to Tyron Woodley just last July:

“I don’t know mentally what was going on with Lawler, he’s not really a guy that pulls out of fights,” Cerrone said. “He’s a tough dude. What I think might have happened, maybe he got rocked in sparring, or maybe his head wasn’t all the way healed up. Maybe there wasn’t enough time.”

“Those are just things I’m making up, I don’t really know what was going on with him, those are just things that can happen.”

If Cerrone can get by Gastelum, he will extend his winning streak to four since moving up to 170-pounds earlier this year, making a bout between him and Lawler still a possibility.
