I'm glad they gave Wonderboy the shot against Woodley. I think they are trying to work out a GSP/Diaz rematch for MSG and that's the reason Woodley didn't get his big money fight.

Back to the Fantasy discussions we had earlier.

Would anyone be interested in doing a contest via DraftKings for some fun? We have the option of doing if for free (bragging rights here) or we could even have a buy in, which can be as low as $1 or make it a bit higher if folks want. My friends and I did it a lot last year for football week to week, usually did a cheap buy in, but it was really more for bragging rights. Made for a lot of fun. I haven't done it for MMA, but I am going to assume it is very similar to how we used to do it (pick winner, which round, how they win, etc.)

So if anyone is interested, let me know and I can setup a league. I think I would need your name on DraftKings to be able to add you. If we want to do it free the first time just to see how it works out we could do that, and if enough are interested we could throw a few bucks at it if we feel like it. Just a thought, let me know what you guys think.

Jon Jones Teases Quick Return from USADA Suspension

Jones teases that he is coming back soon. Maybe it will be the same as Romero and USADA tested the supplements he was taking, and they did in fact have banned substances in it? Or you know, Jones just being a moron again. Gotta be one of those!

Interested into seeing how his situation plays out, though he seemed pretty confident in his video. In other news Nick Diaz being Nick Diaz lol Video - Nick Diaz in heated argument with USADA: 'You're gonna have to wait 5-6 hours!'

I'd be interested in DraftKings, though I'm not sure I'd be able to keep up with every single event since they have one like every 2 weeks now and some I'm just honestly not that interested in. Probably like to do it just for bragging rights at first to see how it works out.

We could just start with PPV events only, or we can do more based on interest. It really only takes a minute to actually setup the event, the biggest part will be getting people to let me know ahead of time if they are going to play.

So who else from our semi regular posters would be interested? Fight Fight , Muurloen Muurloen , Lenas Lenas , Fedor Fedor , @Grimmlokk, cyrusreij cyrusreij , @Furious? And I am sure I am missing several more.

Okay, for those interested in doing the DraftKings fantasy for UFC 202, send me your DraftKings ID. We will do this one for free for some initial bragging rights, then see what people want to do from there. If you don't want your ID listed out here for some reason, you can PM it to me.

Never done DraftKings but I did the old Sherdog system we had. Made an account there, same name as here.

I will make a last call tomorrow for folks to send me their ID, and I'll set it up Thursday morning. I don't think I can add people after I start it, so I will need everyone's ahead of time.
