Ferguson vs Gaethje. Ok
Cejudo vs Cruz dont care. Figity point fighter vs cringe rasler
Ngannou vs Rozenstruik dont care. Womens mma is awful imo.
Stephens vs Kattar meh
Cerrone vs Pettis meh. Cerrone should walk away. Pettis is entertaining but not top tier.
leinik vs Werdum i mean... Cool?
Esparza vs Waterson meh
all vs Souza meh
Thats a pretty damn good card considering the circumstances. You have to understand that they aren't "missing an opportunity". They have an event on May 13th and May 15th as well. They haven't been able to have a lot of out of country guys come in. I believe every fighter on the 249 card is training within the United States (I could be wrong on that though). Right now, UFC can't just throw every fight into one card. They have to spread the "top" fights out if they are going to continue to be the one live sport going on within the country. You can't throw Ferguson, Gaethje, Woodley, Covington, Masvidal, etc. all on one card otherwise you have nothing to market. And even with that, they have put together a great card for 249.

Its not a stacked card. You have to understand the other options they had and disnt use.
Its an ok card. Not worth breaking the paywall and spending real money on. At all.
I'll be interested to see how the ppv does. No other options. Its this or cartoon reruns.
