What do you think MSG main event will be?

[FrankieNYC]

I'm watching the presser now (late I know)
DW just said they have something big in mind
Nate is the co-main, so they must have a fight bigger

Any ideas?

GSP vs Silva?

 

[tang]

Amanda Nunes?

 

[MMAHAWK]

If all goes to plan tomorrow
I think MM comes into the cage and challenges T.J. for the 135 belt

NOT Conor vs Khabib because, as it turns out, New York isn't the best at everything

Yes please

24/7 schtick gets old man
You seem like a good guy but always playing the heel/troll gets tiresome

I like it
It will give me a lot of new respect for MM
I respect his talent incredibly

Silva is out until 2019 I think. I'd be down though.

 

[El Duderino]

I was thinking either Cyborg vs Nunes, or maybe DC vs someone at LHW.

Is Whitaker hurt right now?

Back in November

I don't think DC fights at LHW ever again
I also don't think he risk the Brock payday for anybody

Whitaker is doing tuf vs. Kelvin. I think the MSG show might be too early for that?

Just roll with it. Sometimes we take this shit too seriously and I think it’s funny how relentless CMNH can be. When it’s annoying I just scroll on by lol

I do roll with it
I never said I was mad
But I see why so many get fed up with him

it is never-ending

As solid of a fight as that should be... Other than being for a title that's not a huge main event.

I know it might seem that way but my feelings about people from NY/NJ are not going to change

Ok ok I'll answer seriously in my next post.

Yeah I'm not sure how much bigger it is than Nate vs Poirier either. I love Bobby Knuckles but he hasn't managed to make himself a huge draw (yet).

But I imagine it would have to be a title fight.

A lot of people laughed at @tang's post (not sure if he was serious or not), but Cyborg vs Nunes could be a possibility.

MM vs TJ (assuming TJ wins) is unlikely, just because lately MM has been talking about how "that ship has sailed" in regards to a fight vs TJ.

@FrankieNYC what if they did DC vs Gustafsson 2 for the light-heavyweight title?

Far-fetched I know but maybe if they gave DC a guarantee that he'd still get the Lesnar fight?

I don't see DC taking a fight pre-Brock
It would be stupid
He can get hurt or lose
Either hurts the Brock fight & pushes it back (even if they do it) & I guarantee they want the winner vs Jones that summer (if Jones gets 2 years, he is back), so January is the goal IMO

I think Nunes said she will not be ready for November.

My gut says GSP/Silva

Considering the no-sell that Dana gave that by saying that it's not something that they've even talked about, they're definitely talking about it if the dates work out for Silva to be free to fight.

You're right about DC. Even if he wins (which is not a guarantee), the risk of him getting hurt against Alex is very real. I mean, he almost got knocked out in that first fight.

Anything other than a gut feeling that's making you think it'll be GSP-Silva? I.e., have you heard anything from insiders? I know you have a few connections on the inside.

Isn't DC having to deal with his broken hand? The timing could possibly work but I don't anticipate him taking a fight at 205 unless it's someone that he's super confident that he can walk through.

If he gets injured and the Brock fight gets delayed even more, that's just more chances for Brock to need a little pick me up and get popped again.

I believe Silva’s suspension ends the week after the msg card

No just a gut feeling
Nobody I know has any idea of a headliner

I still think they're going to need a title fight
