It’s Green Wednesday, and if you’re a regular celebrant of that modern holiday, chances are good you fall into the demographic the UFC is looking for on this one.<\/p>\n
The promotion put together a fight marathon video featuring six bouts you might have forgotten happened \u2013\u00a0for whatever reasons. Let’s be clear about that. We’re not saying you forgot about them ’cause you’re a degenerate stoner. Maybe you forgot because it’s been a while. (Or, also, ’cause you’re a degenerate stoner.)<\/p>\n

Nearly 10 years ago, Dustin Poirier handled some “Green” of his own, as in Bobby (now “King”) at UFC 199. That gave him seven wins in eight fights \u2013 and led to his first headliner in more than four years. Did you forget about Poirier’s KO of Green?<\/p>\n
We just passed the 18-year mark of future light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans’ split decision win over future middleweight titleholder Michael Bisping at UFC 78 \u2013\u00a0literally a lifetime ago in MMA time. That one would be easy to have forgotten about.<\/p>\n
Plus, “Shogun” Rua’s win over Alexander Gustafsson; Aljamain Sterling’s submission of Cory Sandhagen to get a title shot; Max Holloway’s bizarre injury TKO of future lightweight champ Charles Oliveira in Saskatoon; and Yair Rodriguez’s thoroughly satisfying beatdown of B.J. Penn are featured in the marathon.<\/p>\n
