Apparently Evans hurt his leg so the fight is canceled.

Really sucks cause I was looking forward to this fight. I guess no one is stepping in on short notice although chael said he would. I'm actually thinking of not ordering the ppv now.

If I was a Michigan fan I would watch more MMA, but this sucks. I really wanted to see this fight.

I was hoping the fight would happen and it would be a double KO.

Cormier is still holding out hope that the promotion can find a replacement to fight him. He spoke to MMA Fighting about his disappointment:


It's very sad. I've had to do a lot of things different for this camp because of the weight, having to make this weight for the first time healthy and where I'm well enough conditioned. It's more than just training for a fight. It's all the other things I had to take into consideration. It's a completely different situation.

Chael Sonnen tweeted about stepping in as a replacement, and Cormier hopes that could come to fruition:


Yeah, they said it's going to be hard to get someone on such short notice. I'm hoping I can get someone to fight. There's somebody out there that wants to step up to take a fight at this moment. I saw on Twitter that Chael wants to fight. Ok, let Chael fight. Anthony Johnson fought a couple of weeks ago, he's still in shape. Let him fight. Or if there's a heavyweight. I'll fight at heavyweight. There's somebody out there.

Despite the UFC saying that they'd try to re-book the fight in the next few months, apparently they didn't tell Cormier that. He still believes that he can fight next week, and he reiterated that he'd be ready for Chael:


I'm very sad. It's very sad, because I've worked hard. So if anyone wants to fight, let's fight. If Chael can fight, I'll go through Chael and then he can fight Wanderlei later. I promise I won't hurt him too bad.

It looks like we're going to find out what kind of drawing power Ronda Rousey is on her own now.

Probably isn't a bad idea but I order all the fights as just a night once a month to hang out with the guys so I still might order it.

I was pretty disappointing to here the bad news.  Was looking forward to the fight.  I could settle for Sonnen being embarrassed by DC, but that fight is kind of useless, I don't think Sonnen would put up much fight for a match going down next week against DC.  And speaking of useless, DC is still fighting, UFC signed Patrick Cummins to a contract this morning and he will face Cormier at UFC 170 now.  I think Jones and the UFC probably like that news and it is why the Evans fight was not re-booked for the Spring.  It keeps DC away from any kind of title picture for the time being.

Cummins is young and 4-0, I don't recall seeing him fight but I probably have since he fought on the Hendo vs Bablu SF card. Hard to have much faith in the guy going up against one of the sports best.

FYI, I'm not buying UFC 170 out of spite for Dana and his pathetic love for Rousey('s potential revenue generating potential).

Yeah I agree with u. If sucks and I haven't not ordered a ppv in probably 2 years but I think this is the one I will skip.

Yeah, last few years I've bought an average of 4 or 5 ppvs a year. I fork over the cash when a card is real good.

I pay for all of them but I can't stand Rhonda and for Dana to say she is the biggest star ever is annoying to me.
