It’s been an absolutely crazy year in the world of mixed martial arts so far. We’ve seen seven champions dethroned by a large percentage of underdogs in the UFC alone. Outside the arena of combat there’s been some harrowing lows, with the losses of numerous fighters and legends still weighing heavy on our minds. Inside the biggest MMA promotion things have been getting wild, and we’ve been right here with you every step of the way.

It’s time to look forward now, as there are a number of seriously entertaining fights coming up. Once again it’s the UFC with all the marbles as we are deep in to the second half of 2016. New owners, same stars and a whole bunch of exciting scraps to anticipate is the story of the UFC right now. Let’s take a peak at the five upcoming UFC fights you really don’t want to miss!

Carlos-Condit[1]

Carlos Condit vs. Demian Maia

Former interim welterweight champion and WEC boss Carlos Condit will look to bounce back from a very narrow split decision loss to Robbie Lawler at UFC 195. Now ‘Ruthless’ has been dethroned by Tyron Woodley, the division is once again shifting, but hoping to capitalize will be Brazilian Jiu Jitsu ace Demian Maia.

Maia submitted Matt Brown at UFC 198 to make it five straight wins, and his August 27 date with ‘The Natural Born Killer’ has a lot on the line. This one has all the makings of a great fight, so tune in to watch UFC on FOX 21 and see who emerges as the next title contender at 170 pounds.

MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) overcame a massive hurdle in 2016, finally breaking the final US state and gaining nationwide legalisation in America. New York had put up a drawn out battle against the sport of mixed martial arts for years, with corruption and scandal often overcoming common sense and reason. After the New York senate’s final debate on the bill for MMA in NY, which included some rather hilarious arguments, it was finally agreed that the Big Apple would finally be open to more combat sports.

The bill was officially signed today, as the UFC tweeted this brief snippet earlier:


Notice Lorenzo Fertitta, Chris Weidman and Ronda Rousey present for the historic signing. Is this a hint as to+ Rousey’s return to action? She’s been bound by contract to her latest Hollywood acting roles, and has stated that she’ll look to return around November time. In another Tweet by the UFC, they released the date of the first event to be held in New York, and you’ll never guess when:


So it’s going to be a huge blackbuster event at Madison Square Gardens, the last scheduled PPV for 2016 so far is UFC 200 in July, so expect to be somewhere around the UFC 205 mark by November 12, give or take.
