I should note this is in Mexico City. The elevation got the best of a few fighters last time we saw a card there.
Ferguson vs Dos Anjos could be a fight of the year caliber match-up. Tony Ferguson has been in beast mode but the dude takes a lot of punishment and puts himself in a lot of bad situations. He's got an amazing chin and finds his ways out of trouble, but Dos Anjos is a straight up killer. Very tough fight to call. I am not sure if Dos Anjos is off the juice and now will be mortal, or if he just got caught against Eddie and can bounce back. His body looked less muscular vs Eddie. Also, given this could be a war of attrition, which one can handle the altitude could be important.
Also Marcin Held makes his debut against Diego Sanchez Charles Oliviera vs Ricardo Lamas Beniel Dariush vs Rashid Magamedov (smother fight) bunch of other fights

The top three fights on your list are all intriguing to me. Especially the headliner.
I never expected Tony Ferguson to become as good a fighter as he's become. Agree entirely on your curiosity about Dos Anjos and whether he's going to drop off now due to the doping testing or whether he's still the killer he was before Eddie. He was brutal before Eddie, I'm particularly remembering his fights against Nate and Cowboy.

I know who bobo is rooting for. Let's hear it bobo - is Dos Anjos winning or is he a product of brazilian roids?

Damn, didn't realize this was tomorrow. Fucking sweet!
I just hope the elevation doesn't turn good fighters into shit.

México cards be giving Cain nightmares. Lets hope the same thing doesn't happen to Ferguson.

I think judging by the mediocrity of his early career when he should have been in his prime to the shredded later years, it's obvious he's just another cheating hack Brazilian. They are a dime a dozen these days.

Sometimes the truth is harsh. Did you dream of a time that we would have one Brazilian champ with all of these weightclasses? The legit testing standards in place now have proven they aren't the superhuman warriors they once seemed to be (this doesn't apply to Shogun, he's my nukka). The instantaneous decline has been a real eye opener.

Da Bronx missed weight by NINE pounds Enough is enough, move that fucker to 155. I just checked and dude has missed weight FIVE times. I'm ready for the UFC to institute a 3 strikes rule or something. Either you can make weight or you can't. 5 times is ridiculous.

Nice, Glad he lost his last fight at 145. They should make him start fighting at 155 from now on.

Thanks. I'm not watching the fight. But I already lost money in College football. Might as well bet on some MMA and boxing.
LOL they just said this fight (Diego vs Held) is at 155. I thought they were 170ers.
I think its 1-1 right now.

I gave Held round 1. Diego round 2. Then I thought Diego got round 3.
Good win for him.

Yeah, I guess I thought Diego won the first round cause of the ending but I guess he was losing most of the round. Surprised Diego doesn't take more guys down. That used to be his bread and butter but fell in love with stand up and has been mediocre ever since.
