Really hope they have cool fight added because I don't care about Strickland vs Izzy, And the under card isn't super good. Tai vs Volkov and Kara France vs Kape is good, Slightly care about Ulberg and Jenkins, But beside that weak card

But it's the UFC fault for putting the Australian card in September and not later, If they did it later in the year, They could of put Volk vs Illa and Dricus vs Izzy on it and actually make a good PPV, Making Dricus turn around quick was bad planing

Also if both Sean and Dricus lose UFC should do the BMF (Blackest ************) titlefight between them

Also since Izzy is Chinese they should bring a real New Zealander (Not Rob he is fake New Zealander) and make him fight Izzy 
Also since The Rock did a parody of Chinese Izzy should fight him too but Rock must get off the secret Juice

Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 550 Points   |   Tied for 2069th

Jenkins vs. Mariscal
Chepe Mariscal, DEC
Might change my prediction after watching some tape on these guys

Tafa vs. Lane
Justin Tafa, TKO, R1
1st fight was on Lane's turf so gonna rematch in Tafa's backyard...beat the Aussies will be pissed if it is another NC

Young vs. Miranda
Shane Young, DEC
I know that Shane has been on a skid but at least he's been fighting better competition. How can someone have 20 fights and fight a 3-1 guy. Hell the best record he's faced recently was BSD and took the L

Pedro vs. Turkalj
Tyson Pedro, TKO, R1
Tyson by KO under 0.5 round

@Mothswords 
the only reason I took Young was bc Miranda hasn't been fighting quality competition. I think maybe one or two have a .500 record. Shane probably should be faded but he's also been tested and I'm sure that if he loses this one he's going back to the regional scene

UFC management are ****** imbeciles if they give it to Jared UNLESS ITS CANNONIER'S LAST CAREER FIGHT. Then I ******* love it and Rob is coming of a TKO loss. And you know what? If Sean learns I think he easily cleans Whittaker and then fights Adesanya after Dricus either knocks Izzy out 2 times or Adesanya pulls off the Upset and then Sean beats Rob and boom Adesanya vs Strickland

Tafa vs. Lane
Justin Tafa, TKO, R2
Lane fan now he seems a solid bloke but not UFC level even at HW.

Mullarkey vs. Makdessi
Jamie Mullarkey, DEC
Good fight hope there is a clear winner John gets robbed far too often and Jamie might be tentative.

At this point it's looking increasingly likely that Tuivasa vs. Volkov will just be bumped up to the main event. Izzy isn't fighting on this card or we'd know about it by now.

He tweeted out yesterday they’re already having issues booking Strickland 

This event has already sold out w out a main event so they could turn it to a fight night no issue
