I assume that's the main event?

Sarafian is going to be huge at 170. I think it's a safe bet he beats Strasser Kiichi and if not, then he should be cut rightfully from the UFC.

Two things Sarafian lacked...Technique and conditioning....Now he will lack them.ever.more.

Sarafian will be a big WW for sure. But he lacked the cardio at MW, so I'd imagine he'll bring that with him to 170. I think he'll beat Kunimoto. But I don't think his run at 170 will be much different from his run at 185. He wont get anywhere.

He will gass after 30 second ... seriously the guy's stocky as **** and Brazilians aren't exactly famous for their "scientific" weight cuts ... if he can even make the weight he's going to look awful, imo ... it's not like he's ever been overpowered at 185, and I think the welterweights are going to be way to fast and conditioned for him.

Bad move, imo.

Rory MacDonald call out Hendricks to fight him at this event. I didn't think that will be the main event, I think it's too soon for Hendricks to return.

However I do find it weird when MacDonald calls guys out to fight him in Canada where he'll have the obvious crowd advantage. He also called out Condit to fight him in Montreal, Condit accepted, then MacDonald pulled out of the fight with an injury.

Johny isn't fighting here. Injured, and will probably return August or September. I'm expect Barao and Aldo again to headline.
