UFC Champion Does The Pedigree, UFC 195 Countdown Video, UFC Fight Pass Getting Big Fights
- UFC released their newest episode of Countdown featuring UFC 195's main event competitors of Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit. The two will do battle for the UFC Welterweight title this Saturday, and Wrestling Inc will have full, live coverage of the first PPV of 2016. You can see the episode of Countdown above.
- Dustin Poirier vs. Joseph Duffy, which is one of the bigger fights this weekend, will air as the main event of the UFC Fight Pass portion of UFC 195. Vice President of Fight Pass Eric Winter pitched the idea to UFC bosses to make up for the fact that subscribers missed out on the fight at UFC Fight Night 76 when Duffy pulled out due to injury. The streaming service will also see Anderson Silva vs. Michael Bisping later this year.

- UFC Light Heavyweight Champion and noted wrestling fan Daniel Cormier posted a picture of him about to hit a Pedigree on a training partner. The move was an ode to Seth Rollins, whom Cormier is a big fan of. A video emerged earlier this year of Cormier going crazy over Rollins' Wrestlemania win.
