They will make this a main event and try to see yet another crappy card with Randy headlining. Its getting sickening.

Brett Rogers = FAIL! Big John looks like he is trying not to get blood on his shoes. :s


I agree Chris. Coleman/Couture is not exactly what I would call a Main Event.

I'm willing to give Dana the benefit of the doubt if a bunch of his stars are hurt.
However this is the list of upcoming main events

Tonight: Forest Vs. Tito. Sorry this was a good fight about 4 years ago. Meaningless now
UFC 107: Penn Vs. Sanchez. Thank you. Finally a title fight. Shockingly BJ is defending two times in the same calendar year.
UFC 108: Rashad Vs. Thiago Silva. Sorry not interested.
UFC 109: Vitor Vs. Anderson. OK I'll admit I'm interested, but Vitor gets a title shot after one win at 195? Nate is on the undercard, and should be fighting for the belt imo.
UFC 110: Nothing announced for main event yet, but Wanderlei is on the card which leads me to believe Dana will use him again for a main event.

The UFC seriously needs to step it up. There is one maybe two legit Main even fights there. Over the course of 4 months I think that is pathetic. If you toss in the discussions of Coture/Coleman fight and Coture/Vera that is two more crappy fights.

The mistakes the UFC has made with fighters contracts is going to bite them in the ass soon. No more Dan Henderson, and Rampage. They have let Jon Fitch rot away fighting scrub after scrub, because of his contract situation. Add that to the fact you have GSP and Brock hurt, and the UFC really doesn't have much to offer in the way of star power.

Now I'm not saying having two big names makes for a great fight, but I think the term "main event" is more deserving than Forrest/Tito 2 or Coleman/Coture.
