Damn
Goodbye Luke Thomas Brown…

Very tough fight
for both guys. Can’t wait to see it. I saw on mmafighting.com that Thiago Alves wants to return in November(at welterweight). I’d love to see if the UFC can put together a Rick Story or Jake Ellenberger matchup with him on this card.
I'm surprised Child Protective Services
let the UFC get Rory back after that third round against Condit

If I weren’t mobile at the moment I’d rec this a million times!

Solid fight for sure
But damn, Zuffa aint doing any favours for Rory here. The kid barely has hair on his chest, only a couple years as a pro and in his first two fights he gets matched with some of the most seasoned and experienced vets at welterweight.
Should be a great fight, and I hope the Canuck hope pulls it out, but he’s in for another trench war.

forgot about the Guymon fight
So Zuffa has done SOME favours for Rory. Still a tough fight.

Man, nothing says "Immortal" quite like "11-9"
Best of luck to him wherever he ends up fighting next. :-P
Don't believe a word I say, I don't train BJJ.

I'm not sure!
Judging from the enthusiasm level of the picture above…

I love me some Matt Brown
But I gotta go with my Canadian brethren and heir to the throne at 170, The Waterboy!

Luke's gonna get banned from the UFC
And he’ll have a profound hatred of Canada by the end of the year. Watch his anti-Zuffa sentiments after MacDonald wins.
Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.
Tough fight for Matt
I really wanted the UFC to match Saunders up with Brown in a loser goes home match. But I guess they were already done with Saunders and they just want Brown to help hype a prospect.

Ive been a fan of Brown but I can't kid myself
He’s gatekeeper at best in the UFC. He’s a tough SOB with some experience, but he makes too many mistakes to move up the WW division. He may win this fight through experience and grit, but Rory has shown to be no joke. Really a coin flip fight to me.
I don't get all the doubt in Rory
The kid is good, and he is only 21.
Sucks for Luke I don’t give him a good chance to win here.
