Good fight booking
With a win Hendricks further cements himself as a legit contender at 170, and if TJ pulls it off than there is another great star for Canada.
Got to go with Hendricks here. TJ’s game revolves around him needing to get top position, which is something he is going to have great difficulty doing against Hendricks and the majority of UFC welterweights.
Not that I condone facism or any ism for that matter. Isms are in my opinion, not good. A person shouldn't believe in an ism, he should believe in himself.
I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me". Good point there, after all he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. Wouldn't change the fact I have to bum rides off of people.
Perfect matchmaking
TJ and Hendricks are both the future of the division. This’ll be like watching Fitch v. Alves I.

When I first saw this match announced, I immediately thought how good and evenly matched this fight is. Both fighters are around the same level/rank except that Hendricks is undefeated. Stylistically, the wrestling goes to Hendricks, but TJ has shown a very good ground game especially against Chonan. Hendricks just TKOed Sadollah, and TJ just KOed Kevin Burns. This card is just looking better and better. I have to give the edge to Hendricks here, but wouldn’t be surprised to see Grant take this.
The UFC makes these fights way to early. They need to start waiting to make fights with 2 weeks to go. It would get them way more press for their fights. I mean it’s not like anybody is ripping Strikeforce for those shenanigans. Strikeforce’s late booking process only seems to get them good press. The UFC needs to get in on some of that.
Just BE.
and they need more.......
CANS! so they can display their CAN CR"USHERS top tallent.
HI YAH!

I just really hope this post is full of Sarcasm ? I hope you can see all the pros and benefits for not only the fighters but the fans buy annouccing a fight early.
Yes it is.
Except the part about nobody is critical of Strikeforce for doing it. That part is true because Strikeforce seems to be immune from the criticism of MMA media.
Just BE.
