those are people who can't even make it in amateur mma
You'd be surprised with some of the guys you see on local MMA circuits. Some people just aren't cut out for fighting. At least these guys are tough, though they don't have the technique.
I bet a lot of these guys have amateur and possibly even a few pro boxing fights. MMA is not likely.

I love how he's asleep the first half of the fight, then just lights the American up!
I watched it a couple of months ago, but I remember thinking that one guy was just an alcoholic. He showed up drunk and ate a couple shots to sober up haha.

Always love seeing Condit fight. That's going to be a great fight.

Mcdonald vs Lawler also looks very promising.

Aldo vs McGregor has become way to commercial. To much wwe smack talk going on. It's already a bad fight. Most want to see Aldo actually fight a hard fight for once. But since Connor has turned into big mouth mgee not many people want to see him win either.

Ya I also wonder how nate diaz is going to hold up with a bulkier matt brown they both have chins of granite and like to stand up and strike its going to be an interesting fight I just wonder how it will end.

That's the younger brother right? He's got serious bjj and it's hard to deal with his forward mouthy style. Beats a lot of guys as the underdog.

Yes, lots of exciting fights that you guys listed. Not really a whole lot of exciting fights on the card this weekend though.
Nate Diaz hasn't looked too good at WW in the past, but he likes to throw body shots and Browns' body is not as granite as his chin. Tough fight to call, but I'd take Brown.
The Jones vs Johnson card is looking really good. Hopefully everyone stays health.

4 of the next 5 ufc cards are free. can't beat that

although anything can happen, I don't see how alves can beat condit at this point. he was getting lit up by Jordan mein and was seemingly on his way to defeat before he scored with that body kick. only thing I question is that condit hasn't been active. two fights in 2013, only one fight in 2014 in march where his knee got injured during the fight.

I wish condit had not hurt his knee in the woodley fight. although a legit win for woodley, I would like to see a rematch
