Love the Wonderboy/MacDonald fight. There's so much on the line. If Wonderboy goes in and impresses like he did against Hendricks I think he gets the next title shot over Maia. At the end of the day though, win or lose, does the UFC re-sign MacDonald?

The main event is absolutely amazing. One of the best non title fight headliners ever in my opinion. So much skill on the line in this fight. No idea who takes it.

What a f--- man, it's 8-8 because of your sloppy bulls---. Rory MacDonald simply cant lose a poll to a 30 year old who looks like a 14 year old.

MacDonald is going to make this an ugly, gritty fight and Wonderboy won't know what to do similar to the way GSP used to negate opponent's strengths. Complete domination by MacDonald here. People think he's going to come in and do some fancy kicks or something...sheesh.

Weren't you saying that Wonderbody didn't stand a chance against Hendricks? Give him some credit.
Having said that, I do think will Rory mix up his takedowns and striking way better than Hendricks will. Rory's a tougher fight for Wonderboy than Lawler IMO.

Hendricks is not MacDonald. He's a wrestler with some power. MacDonald is a mixed martial artist with many different elements. Wonderboy hasn't been in a smothering gritty fight (maybe Brown?) and he'll be totally useless if he can't kickbox. That's where I see Rory taking it. Keeping pressure in a phone booth.
I have no idea if I took Hendricks over Wonderboy but they're completely different fights regardless.
