I don't know how I feel about Adesanya v Gastelum?  If it turns out to be a standup affair, then Adesanya should be able to outpoint him. (I don't see him stopping Kelvin)  If Gastelum is able to get it to the ground on a consistent basis, game over for Israel.

I wouldn’t feel comfortable betting on either. Should be a great fight

looking at Gastelum-Adesanya AND Ferguson-Holloway at 236 (both for the interim belt). Holy hell, I'm so pumped

I honestly can't believe they are screwing with Poirier this much. It's even bad by UFC standards. 

If Max is moving up for a second title, it should be the actual title. Why hold up his own division for an interim one? Do Tony-Poirier for the interim one, Khabib defends when he comes back, and then Max can move up.

Make Poirier avenge his losses to Conor before he gets a title shot. Title shots are highly competitive these days.

Joe Rogan, who I don't know how credible he is when he says this, but I assume he is, said on one of his recent podcasts...

 

Israel vs vs Gastelum is official and signed

Holloway vs Ferguson is official and not signed

Mcgregor vs Cowboy is official and not signed. 

 

Hyped for the next 2 events. I hope Gastelum and Ferguson get pounded. I think Conor will make early work of Cowboy. Cowboy isn't a good starter and Mcgregor is a great starter.

I love all 3 fights but like someone else already said it makes no sense for Max to move up for an interim belt. If he beats Ferguson then his next fight is Khabib, essentially making FW belt on hold or up for grabs because he likely wouldn't defend it for a year

Completely agree. If he's going to be in LW full time, allegedly, anyway, he should just vacate it now. I'd be less mad about it even though it's a good fight. 

Poirier is getting a $h!t end of the stick but he's not helping himself.

What by not fighting? I feel like he isn’t helping himself there. Cerrone is ultra active, Conor is Conor, Cucuy is on like a 12 fight win streak albeit not all good/great fighters and Dustin has beaten a gatekeeper in Gaethje and Alvarez
