I've done my fair share of complaining about the card, it's the first card I've ever complained about though. And the only issue I really have is Justin Edwards being on the main card. I think that guy should've been cut years ago, and his fight with Yancy is the worst fight on the entire card. One more slam and then I'm done: do you think the card gets cancelled if Dillashaw-Barao gets scrapped?
Obviously I'll still watch the card. And there are some decent fights on the undercard. Can't wait to see Soto and Birchak in the UFC. Will be fun to see if Cejudo can come in with a huge win over Jorgensen.

I personally would give the worst (or in my own words least intriguing since it could end up being good) fight of the card to Hamilton vs Potts with the way they were both so easily finished in their debuts. Yancy at least is worth watching in my eyes as he is a solid fighter. And Edwards probably should have been cut but the guy does come to fight win or mostly lose.

Octagon experience plus he's coming off a fairly big victory with that win over Beneil Dariush who quite a few people had tipped as the next big thing.

I'm not doubting Carlos but hes 1-0 in the UFC beating Colton Smith which means he hasn't really proved himself yet, not saying Nijem has though. Ramsey is just a more well-known name than Carlos Diego Ferreira, people usually vote for the guy they've heard of before.
I can't really say who I think is going to win as I've never seen Carlos fight.

If Jacare v Mousasi can't headline a card, Ferguson v whoever he's fighting can't either.

I find it very disheartening people thought that was a legitimate question...

Absolutely, and that's why cards are cancelled, because they relied to heavily on the main event instead of having stacked cards worth your money. Dana keeps talking about what killed boxing, well he hasn't learnt from those lessons obviously!

Fact: UFC 178 prelims are ten times better than this card.

People are bitching about this card because it's a bad card. This is a forum, people express their opinions here.
People bitching about people bitching is worse than the people doing the original bitching.

Nah, can't really beat bitching about something you ahve total control over seeing/skipping. You solve can solve your own problem instead of wanting other people to know how much of a problem you have with it. Unless they just know they will watch the prelims until the main card and end up buying it anyway. At the end, people just want other people to hear them complain like they are given no choice but to watch it. It's all about how you choose to look at it and most would choose to look at it like they are getting ripped off instead of just not acknowledging something they claim to not care to see. We are in the age of whiners .

It's a bad PPV, that's why people are saying it's a bad PPV. It really is that simple.

But this isn't a thread on an entire month of MMA, it's a thread about UFC 177. And in this thread, people are going to post their opinions about UFC 177. If that really upsets you so much maybe you should avoid this thread.

If my thoughts on people bitching upset YOU so much maybe you should not read said posts? See how there is an answer for everything?
If you don't consider 177 worth the money but you rarely give money to the sport anyways then think of that 55 or whatever going towards the cards that do matter to do. Again, it's about perspective. If you want to skip at the end of the day, do that. But do make up listen to you b---- about how much you dislike something you won't see anyway.

It's not just one bad card, its a trend nowadays! And if it continues there will be more cancelled cards in the future due to injuries last minute!
