Despite not competing for almost three years, Georges St-Pierre opened as a betting favorite over new UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.

On this week's episode of the show, the panel will discuss who new welterweight champion Tyron Woodley should fight next, the return of Nick Diaz, UFC champions losing in 2016 and much more.

TPF 28 - Tachi Palace Fights 28 pits Brian The Bandit Cobb vs Danny Ironman Navarro fight in Tachi Palace Hotel & Casino, Lemoore, California, United States on Aug 4, 2016.

Even if you're not a Tyron Woodley fan, the worst you can say about the UFC's new welterweight champion is that he wants to fight a legend in the biggest possible fight and payday he could ever reasonably dream of and that he enjoys getting to spite his boss. Who doesn't want to be rich, famous and spite our employer?

The Three Amigos are back with another packed episode featuring a duo of exciting UFC fighters: welterweight standout and crowd pleasing knockout artist, Jake Ellenberger and middleweight fan favorite Chris Camozzi.

California-based Bellator MMA announced Thursday that a women's flyweight bout between Anastasia Yankova and Veta Arteaga has been added to Bellator 161 . The event goes down Sept. 16 at the HEB Center in Cedar Park, Texas. The matchup bolsters a main card that features a heavyweight main event pitting Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Cheick Kongo against Tony Johnson . Yankova was impressive earlier this year in her Bellator debut when she scored a first-round armbar at Bellator 152. She takes on a streaking Arteaga, who has won two consecutive battles. Bellator will unveil a full undercard, as well as the remainder of the main card in the coming days.

Editor’s note: The views and opinions expressed below are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Sherdog.com, its affiliates and sponsors or its parent company, Evolve Media. *** Tyron Woodley ’s first-round knockout of Robbie Lawler at UFC 201 made him the seventh new Ultimate Fighting Championship titleholder in less than a year. As someone who was considered undeserving of a title shot, Woodley adds his name to a growing list of underdogs who have emphatically proved the naysayers wrong. Does this recent string of title changes and unpredictability bode well for the UFC in the long run? Sure, it’s fun to see that anybody can beat a world champion on any given night; and that hasn’t been clearer than in the past year, as world champions have fallen at a frightening rate against opponents that few thought could usurp them. However, is there any such thing as an “upset” anymore considering how frequently titles have been changing hands? Do the titles mean much of anything anymore considering that nobody can hang on to them long enough to establish themselves as true champions? What we love about mixed martial arts can also be its biggest detriment: unpredictability.

In an effort to bring more attention to the global stage of mixed martial arts, this list does not focus on major North American-based promotions such as the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Bellator MMA and the World Series of Fighting. *** Gesias Cavalcante ’s best days may be behind him, but if recent results are any indication, he still has plenty left in the tank. Cavalcante will defend the Titan Fighting Championship lightweight crown against surging Ascension MMA export Freddy Assuncao in the Titan 40 main event on Aug. 5 at the BankUnited Center in Coral Gables, Florida. UFC Fight Pass will provide coverage of the event. A two-time K-1 Hero’s grand prix winner, Cavalcante has registered back-to-back wins for the first time since 2007. The 33-year-old Blackzilians rep returned from close to a two-year layoff on June 10, as he captured the Titan lightweight title with a stunning first-round knockout against Pat Healy . Wins over Vitor Ribeiro , Rani Yahya , Caol Uno , Katsunori Kikuno , Bobby Green and Tyson Griffin anchor the Cavalcante resume.

Editor’s note: The views and opinions expressed below are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Sherdog.com, its affiliates and sponsors or its parent company, Evolve Media. *** Tuesday's session at the Association of Boxing Commissions’ annual convention was surreal at best and chaotic at worst. A committee of regulators, fighters and referees put in hours and hours of work to come up with a list of modifications to the Unified Rules of MMA and those proposals were whittled down to a smaller set of changes by the medical advisory committee, comprised of some of the top ringside physicians in the country. These changes were set to be voted on Tuesday in Las Vegas. It seemed like a simple task but if I’ve learned anything over the last seven years I’ve been attending the ABC's annual conference, it's that whenever you get a bunch of regulators in one room, be prepared for the unexpected. When the voting members were asked if they were ready to call for a motion, California's Executive Officer Andy Foster asked for a 10-minute recess.

Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com blog. This week, Breen is joined by BloodyElbow.com's John Nash . Ahead of Nash's forthcoming series of articles for BloodyElbow analyzing recently disclosed purses in both MMA and boxing, he and Breen discuss his findings after comparing reported paydays in California, Florida and Nevada last year, the impact Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao have on the average boxing purse, the curious way in which the UFC inflates mid-tier fighter salaries against market value and what impact the Muhammad Ali Act would have on the politics of fighter pay if adopted for MMA. Breen and Nash also talk about the concept of competition between promoters in both MMA and boxing, the surprising fact that the UFC's ostensible competition aren't actually competing against the industry leader the way that people think and how boxing's plethora of sanctioning bodies and proliferation of “world titles” actually helps boxers make big bank. Grab your credential and get a seat in “Press Row.

After a 32-fight winning streak that saw him emerge as a dominant bantamweight champ in the UFC, Barao (33-4 MMA, 8-3 UFC) has gone 1-3 in his four most recent bouts. After moving up to the featherweight division for his most recent bout, he suffered a unanimous decision loss to Jeremy Stephens at UFC Fight Night 88.

A heavyweight matchup with a knockout written all over it has been added to the UFC Fight Night card in Brazil as Roy Nelson faces Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva on September 24.

This deal further solidifies BT Sport’s commitment to MMA in the UK and should help cultivate and grow their audience with events airing during primetime hours. Theoretically this could also prove to be a good lead in for UFC programming if Cage Warriors events are held on the same night as UFC events stateside. With the time difference you could have a CW event in the UK followed by a UFC event from overseas for example.

"I definitely want to fight at UFC 202," McCall said. "I think this fight has garnered enough attention to put us at 202. I think more or less it could be a No. 1 contender fight. It's perfect because I beat Wilson and then Demetrious still has to fight "The Ultimate Fighter" winner. So I could fight (Joseph) Benavidez or I could fight (Jussier) Formiga or somebody else ranked. It's a good set up for me to build to actually earn a title shot. I don’t need it free. That's how I see it going down."

It was one of the greatest heavyweight fights in the history of mixed martial arts. But as shocking as it is, in a sport loaded with rematches, all-time greats Fedor Emelianenko and Mirko Filipovic only went toe-to-toe once, with “The Last Emperor” taking a unanimous decision in 2005. But even though both men are well past their physical primes, it appears as though "Cro Cop" and Emelianenko could lock horns again. According to a new poster from Japanese promotion Rizin Fighting Federation , Fedor and Cro Cop are likely participants in a rematch on Sep. 25. The league has previously announced an open-weight tournament for the event. There are no details whatsoever regarding the proposed fight, other than the heavyweights' likeness plastered all over the poster. The heavyweight popularly known as “Cro Cop” announced his retirement late last year before he was to face Anthony Hamilton at UFC Fight Night in Seoul, citing a shoulder injury that left him unable to raise his arm. Shortly thereafter, it was revealed that Filipovic had been flagged for an anti-doping violation.

The Glory 33 card, which is slated for Sep. 9 in New Jersey, has just been bolstered by an intriguing heavyweight showdown. Chi Lewis-Parry (7-1, 3 KOs) will clash with Xavier Vigney (10-1, 8 KOs) and serve as the co-headlining bout of the Glory 33 SuperFight Series undercard. Vigney took out Lewis-Parry in San Diego last May in the final round of the one-night four-man Heavyweight Qualification Tournament. “Chopper” would like nothing more than to exact revenge on “X-Man” and he’ll get his chance next month. Also announced for the Glory 33 SuperFight Series undercard is a welterweight skirmish between Francois Ambang and Daniel Morales in a rematch; “Bang Bang” won their first encounter. A 140-pound showdown between Rami Ibrahim and David Moore was also revealed. The Glory 33 SuperFight Series undercard will be anchored by the middleweight championship where Simon Marcus (44-2-2, 24 KOs) will defend his crown against Jason Wilnis (28-6-1, 7 KOs). Zoila Frausto will oppose Daniela Graf in a Super Bantamweight Grand Prix quarterfinal duel as well.

It looks like Sultan Aliev will not be fighting on the massive UFC 202 card later this month. According to a report from MMAJunkie, a wrist injury has derailed the Russian middleweight and Aliev has been removed from the event, leaving Hyun Gyu Lim currently without an opponent. Aliev was hoping to bounce back from a dreadful Ultimate Fighting Championship debut in January where Kenny Robertson knocked him out in the first. “The Ace” was looking to get back on track as well as Lim fell short in in his most recent Octagonal appearance. The South Korean was stopped by Neil Magny at UFC Fight Night 66 and has lost two of his last three. The mega event goes down Aug. 20 in Las Vegas in the new T-Mobile Arena, the site of the blockbuster UFC 200 card. The grudge rematch between reigning featherweight champion Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz will anchor the festivities, though they will meet in a non-title bout at welterweight. Fan favorite Donald Cerrone will lock horns with Rick Story and Anthony “Rumble” Johnson will oppose Glover Teixeira in a pivotal light heavyweight affair.

As it builds towards the crescendo of UFC 202 and the Conor McGregor - Nate Diaz rematch in a matter of weeks, the Ultimate Fighting Championship hands the torch to one of its most promising young featherweights. The once-beaten Yair Rodriguez will meet Alex Caceres in the UFC Fight Night 92 main event on Saturday at the Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City. In the featherweight co-headliner, Dennis Bermudez collides with “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil” Season 1 winner Rony Mariano Bezerra . The rest of the six-fight main card features a welterweight clash pitting Santiago Ponzinibbio against Zak Cummings , a women’s strawweight affair matching Maryna Moroz with Danielle Taylor and a pair of middleweight battles, as Thales Leites locks horns with Chris Camozzi and Trevor Smith squares off with Joseph Gigliotti . Let us take a closer look at each UFC Fight Night “Rodriguez vs. Caceres” matchup, with analysis and picks: Featherweights Yair Rodriguez (7-1) vs. Alex Caceres (12-8) THE MATCHUP: Rodriguez is for many people the most exciting prospect in the featherweight division; and while Max Holloway might take issue with that, the reasons for Rodriguez’s rapidly growing fanbase are more than clear.

At 115 pounds, unbeaten fighters are staying unbeaten. At 135 pounds, no one can hang onto the Ultimate Fighting Championship title. In either case, we've got significant movement on the women's pound-for-pound list. At UFC 201 in Atlanta, Karolina Kowalkiewicz seized the moment, co-headlining a pay-per-view in just her third UFC appearance in a de facto title eliminator against the offensively gifted Rose Namajunas . Kowalkiewicz took the clinch to exploit Namajunas, earning a well-deserved split decision victory and solidifying herself as the next challenger for fellow unbeaten Polish 115-pounder Joanna Jedrzejczyk in a bout that would be both a historic strawweight clash, as well as a new pinnacle for Polish mixed martial arts. With her biggest win to date, Kowalkiewicz rises in these rankings from 10th to fifth. Of course, Kowalkiewicz's rapid rise through these pound-for-pound rankings wouldn't have been possible without the events that transpired one week earlier in Chicago, where underdog Valentina Shevchenko outclassed former UFC women's bantamweight champ Holly Holm for the final four rounds to earn the biggest win of her own career, leap forward in UFC 135-pound contendership and take the seventh spot on our list.

“I have no interest in showing how strong I am or how good I can be but more about getting the money and the bitches,” Ishihara said. “My goal is always to have a fight that will make the ladies go crazy for me.

All that means is it’s already in place! He doesn’t need to sit down and negotiate and do all these different things. He can just sign the contract.”

Back in the days of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, the female nude was considered a classy work of art. As the years progressed, the classy and artistic value seemed to disintegrate as institutions like Playboy  and Hustler  co-opted the female form to please the gaze of horny males. In other words, trashy nude celebrity photos replaced the fine works of classical artists. However, there are a few diamonds in the rough. These tasteful portraits of beautiful celebs harken back to an earlier time. Don't worry though. You'll still get horny looking at them. Also, July 14th is National Nude Day, so we need to pre-game that, right?

In her ongoing series of brilliantly retouched photos, Long takes WWI-era family pictures and revitalizes them by adding color and flare of surreal elements to them in a way that truly breathes new life into them.

Finally, the addition of MMA would be the pinnacle of combat sports at the Olympics. The historical importance of combat sports at the Olympics cannot be understated. If you look at the ancient games, they could essentially be broken down into track and field events and wrestling. Now that wrestling is out of the games, there needs to be a new face for combat sports. Boxing is losing popularity on an international scale and I'm not sure if judo or karate could ever fully hold the attention of an Olympic audience. MMA could fill that void by incorporating elements of all fighting disciplines into a single event. Maybe we can hope for the 2024 games to not only be in Los Angeles, but to maybe add a new event as well.

“Think about Johny Hendricks. First time Johny Hendricks got his shot, he beat [John] Koscheck, he knocked out [Martin] Kampmann, he knocked out [Jon] Fitch, he beat Carlos Condit,” Woodley said on his podcast, The Morning Wood. “He got skipped over by who? Nick Diaz because he was a bigger draw. Think about Frankie Edgar. Completely wiped out the division. Did he get an immediate shot against Conor? Or was Conor able to jump weight classes? And then when that falls through, he gets to go and fight Nate Diaz. Loses the fight, is still the champion and rematches the guy.

Premier Boxing Champions announced on Thursday that middleweight champion Daniel Jacobs will defend his title against Sergio Mora on Sep. 9. The action will go down at Santander Arena in Reading, Penn. Spike TV will televise the event beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, with the telecast kicking off with a lightweight bout as Robert Easter Jr. (17-0, 14 KOs) takes on Richard Commey (24-0, 22 KOs). Also on the card, heavyweight contender Travis "My Time" Kauffman (30-1, 22 KOs) will be featured in a 10-round fight. Jacobs and Mora first fought in August 2015 in a brawl that saw both men hit the canvas in round one. Mora was floored by a Jacobs right hand but the crafty veteran recovered, only to drop Jacobs with a clean left. "The Latin Snake" was felled again in the second but he suffered a broken ankle and was defeated by TKO. "This is business for me, but it is also more personal than any fight I have ever had," said Jacobs. "Sergio has been using these antics online to get this rematch and he has gotten under my skin. There has been a lot of back and forth as far as people's opinions as to who would have won the fight had he not gotten hurt.

What is it Thursday? Friday? Dude, does anyone even know anymore? Does it matter? All you know is that you’re so close to the weekend. So close to the moment where you get to say bye Felicia to the office (until Monday). So close to whatever we all do with our time off. These final moments are the most difficult. So we’ve got a few gifs that really say it all. Hold in there, man, we’re nearly there.
