Brown vs Faber 2 is tomorrow. im so ready for this fight. im picking Mike Brown to win just because of his style.

even though Shogun is getting the next title shot, i dont believe he deserves it. two wins for a title shot seems pretty quick. the Liddell TKO was the only one that was meaningful.

on another note, Affliction 3 is coming this August. im pretty hype for it. i cant wait to see Fedor vs Barnett. its the first time these friends are pitted against each other. this will prove Fedor to be the top P4P fighter in the world.

Affliction is soooooo HYPED!
I think they put out great matches.
arlovski vs fedor was a good fight even tho it was short. It showed the oldschool Arlovski but he just got caught. Fedor is just BEAST

[Frankster]

Arlovski got knocked out tonite, his chin is his weakness

[lilkidgotrice]

Arlovski isnt looking too good. he needs to learn some defense. i cant believe he got caught again.

I think tonight's WEC card will be good, the main card looks solid

yea. i hope Jens Pulver can pull of a win, finally. i think im only gonna watch that fight and the main event. im gonna be watching the NBA Finals most of the time.

Tonight's WEC event was good, most of the matches were nice and short. Jose Aldo's flying knee on Cub Swanson was awesome, I think he'll be the champ soon. Donald Cerrone is a beast haha, I'm sure he'll beat Jamie Varner in the rematch.

Man, Brown is wack. Urijah broke his hand 1st round and lasted all 5 rounds, but Mike couldn't even beat him with that advantage? The take downs I think were only for points. Props to Urijah for being a real trooper, but man, what an upset for Sac-town. Now I hope Aldo messes Brown up real good. That flying knee was killer.

Thought that Brown would finish him too but I think Urijah was too fast for him to hit

[lilkidgotrice]

i think Mike Brown did a great job. Urijah was a warrior though. did Brown know Faber's hand was broken? maybe he played it off well. all in all, good fights all night. only one decision in the main card. Pulver lost again. *sigh* he's done.

Marcus Davis Vs Dan Hardy fight is going to be fireworks

[lilkidgotrice]

^i love Dan Hardy. he is the future of the UFC, just like Dustin Hazelett. i hope he wins. the "Irish Hand Grenade" is one tough opponent though.

[Frankster]

I totally forgot that Caol Uno is making his return at UFC 99 against Spencer Fisher

ya. thats gonna be a good fight as well. this fight is like the Hardy/Davis fight for me. idk who will win. im rooting for Uno.

MY UFC 99 PREDICTIONS:

Rich Franklin vs Wanderlei Silva (Silva by TKO)
Cheick Kongo vs. Cain Velasquez (Kongo by TKO)
Mike Swick Vs. Ben Saunders (Swick by KO)
Marcus Davis Vs. Dan Hardy (Hardy by Decision)
Spencer Fisher Vs. Caol Uno (Uno by Decision)

im also rooting for Mirko Cro Cop. that bout should be on the main card.

[Frankster]

I hope Swick knocks out Saunders, I would gave Swick the first round so far
