As the former middleweight champion of the world, Chris Weidman knows a little something about making an entrance. So it shouldn’t have been any surprise when the word came down from UFC President Dana White Tuesday morning that Weidman would be facing Yoel Romero on the historic UFC 205 card at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 12.

This, after 11 other fights, including three championship bouts, were already announced...

Oh. Thanks Filthy. Heard him talking about it at the Manhatten Acadmy last month then Romero leaked it and just assume it was official. He wins this one IMO. Romeo will gas IMO. Jacare isn't nearly as good as Weidman standing and the was a super close fight. Then again I'm sure Romero didn't want to go anywhere near the mat w him due to his Jiu Jitsu but Weidman is legit wrestling and Romero's advantage isn't going to be as pronounced there.

The Other match Beong discussed was Jacare vs CW. I think They are giving Jacare Bisping if he wins. If Hendo wins and retires as he says he will the Rockhold and Jacare will most likely fight for the title at 185
Jacare does deserve a title shot.

Agree with you about Romero tiring out and losing this one.
