Twas the week before UFC 200 and all through the land, people were preparing, but wait just one minute... there were still other MMA events to be watched!

A lot went down at ONE Championship 44 in China, including a Flyweight tournament and a title fight. Starting with the Flyweight tournament, Bu Huo You Ga won it all by first dispatching of Wan Jian Ping via guillotine at 1:24 of round 2 and then defeating Li Hao Jie by unanimous decision. Mongolian MMA veteran Narantungalag Jadambaa made quick work of Eric Kelly, winning the Featherweight belt in the process, with a KO coming at :44 of round 1.

At Legacy FC 57, Middleweight Charles Byrd took out Quentin Henry in a quick but back and forth fight that ended by TKO at 2:50 of round 1. Welterweight Derrick Krantz furthered the fight cards streak of finishes with a first round rear naked choke of Dave Burrow at 4:22. In the main event Kevin Aguilar claimed with vacant Featherweight title with a split decision win over Tony Kelley.

Three major match-ups have been added to UFC 202 including two Welterweight fights that see Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone take on Rick "The Horror" Story and Carlos Condit versus Damien Maia. The third fight sees Light Heavyweight contenders Anthony "Rumble" Johnson and Glover Teixeira go to war.

"JZ" Cavalcante will defend his Lightweight title against challenger Freddy Assuncao at Titan FC 40.

A Light Heavyweight super fight between UFC veterans Dan Spohn and Matt Hamill will headline CFFC 60.
