looks like a pretty good card! Wonder how much Rampage has left in him? About 6 pounds too much (and consequently 20% less of his purse) at the weigh in.... Watching the prelims now - good fight so far. yeah, he said he got injured and couldn't do any running or something |

I'm glad Hunt is in the UFC. I've wanted to see that for a long time now. Anybody that can take two prime Crocop LHKs in a fight and keep fighting is bound to be a good addition. I may be way off here, but I got Pettis, Shields, Hunt, Bader, and Henderson.
Potentially great card! |

Potentially great card! Agree with all of your picks except for Henderson. Edgar has heart! |

I like Edgar a lot, but I really think Henderson is the better fighter. I think his size/reach will help, too. |

If I ever fought in the UFC... I'd come out to the Jurassic Park theme song. I like Sexyama.. and I'd like him to win.. but I don't see it happening. Who knows, though! and when you come down the aisle and get into the octagon you should pretend to be a velociraptor. |

Quoted: Shields 30-27 on all 3 cards...wow... just wow...  Wall-N-Stall for the win... I need to re-watch, that fight cause I saw it 29-28 akiyama. Honestly, he was the aggressor most of the time, was throwing constantly, and overall did just about as well as Sexyama. Sexyama just didn't seem like he was trying that hard. Shields was. Not to mention, he really SHOULD have had a point taken for grabbing the fence when Shields had his back. |
