after the ONE FC card, the next L2 event is a month away. Can someone come up with a set of fights for a weekend in between? I will give you 2 props

I don't think that has enough on its own, but a combo card like Budge put out would be great

Around this time next week I'll put together another for the weekend after. I'd like to have a card every weekend to be honest but that might be too much. I like how it has been the last month or so

Forgot to keep a copy of what I submitted, to hippy, but there's a decent weekend coming up September 14th - 15th, with several UFC veterans and some prospects as well.
The two cards with the most to offer are Ring of Combat 42 and BAMMA 10. Notables from these cards include Deividas Taurosevicius, Jimmie Rivera, Mike Massenzio, Andy Main, Andre Winner, Curt Warburton as well as some Bellator/Strikeforce vet opponents. There are also a few matchups that contain more unknown fighters, but who have decent records and are from respectable camps.
To flush out those cards and protect against cancellations, there are a few events that weekend with only one or two notable fighters (not necessarily fighting eachother), including...
LFC 14 - Jorge Patino, Antonio Banuelos
PWP 5 - Bernardo Magalhaes
KSW 20 - Houston Alexander vs Jan Blachowicz, Mariusz Pudzianowski
AFC 11 - Joe Doersken vs Kalib Starnes

The more events to make picks on the better

Once we get passed the next Strikeforce event we will have Bellator every weekend to fill out the L2 cards. That's a solid base to build from, and you really only need one or two more events with some good names to make a solid L2 event.

doesn't make any sense not to...and you wonder why L2 numbers have plummeted
I guess because he doesn't know every fighter he will turn it down. Put the event up and let the people who want to make picks do so, whether they know the fighters or not. I'll be honest, I don't recognize half that list, but I will still make picks and research them a bit. Some of these guys could very well end up in the primary game some point down the road and some of us L2 players will already have some sort of knowledge of them. It's bad enough we are going through our 2nd month long dry spell of UFC events this year, give us something to look forward to.

Agreed, just do away with L2 if this is whats gonna happen to be honest.

The thing is though guys, real money is given out and more events = more payouts. I'm sure you guys have heard that the site is getting a bit of a facelift that's being worked on as we speak, that costs $ too. Trust me when I say it will be worth the wait, changes are being made.

If that's the reason the so be it. Knowing why the events are shot down is better than just a no

I figured that's why to be honest. I'm not knocking Hippy for the decision, just regurgitating his answer. Regardless though, I'm going to keep making these cards and sending them to him weekly
