Time for UFC 95 tomorrow live at 3pm but will air on Spike TV at 9pm from the O2 Arena in the UK.
It's not a blockbuster card but I think decent nonetheless. Joe Stevenson Vs. Diego Sanchez Dan Hardy Vs. Rory Markham Nate Marquardt Vs. Wilson Gouveia Demian Maia Vs. Chael Sonnen Josh Koscheck Vs. Paulo Thiago My picks in bold. In other news.................... UFC 99 PITS RICH FRANKLIN VS WANDERLEI SILVA The Ultimate Fighting Championship is set to make its German debut on June 13 at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne. While several fights have been rumored for the event over the past couple of months, most have not come to fruition. MMAWeekly.com on Wednesday, however, was able to confirm through multiple independent sources that former UFC middleweight champion Rich Franklin and former Pride 205-pound champion Wanderlei Silva have agreed to fight each other at UFC 99. http://www.mmalinker.com/news/25300/...LEI_SILVA.html

I hate Diego Sanchez. I remember paying to see him fight Josh Koscheck and then...Sanchez just walked around the ring being a crybaby. What a pathetic fight.

Looking forward to the fight tonight. While there is not a big main event or co main event , I love watching the brazilians fight and there's a few on the card. Damien Mia is my favorite fighter to watch, hopefully the guy he is fighting dosen't avoid going to the ground and stall the fight like he did against paulo filho and play for points. I hope to ref stays out of the fight as much as possible. I also wish they show the Junior dos santos fight on the ppv, he is a good up and coming fighter.

I picked well for this event. I was sick all weekend but I managed to stay awake long enough to watch the event.

I agree...but does anyone think that the ref called that one a bit quick? I thought it was a good call, but a buddy who was watching with me thought that they should have let it go a bit longer, that Kos was still defending himself, or acting like it.

Some good matchups taking shape for sengoku 7.
Heavyweight bout: Aleksander Emelianenko vs. Antonio Silva Heavyweight bout: Roger Gracie vs. TBA Heavyweight bout: James Thompson[1] vs. Jim York Light Heavyweight bout: Muhammed Lawal vs. Ryo Kawamura Some experts say if anybody can beat Fedor Emelianenko it is Antonio Silva, intresting that he is fighting his brother. This event is not until March 20th. |

Yeah, watch the slow-mo clip that Radio posted above. As soon as he's on the ground he looks directly at the opponent, squares his hands up to block, and raises his legs off the ground. I hate the guy and his retarded hair but he doesn't look OUT.

Looks like Randy and Big Nog have both signed on to fight each other at UFC 101. Hopefully Nog will show up this time. Looking forward to it.
On another note, in the "are you serious!?" catagory, Bobby Lashley will be fighting Ken Shamrock on March 21st. And finally, something I'm crazy excited about, Cung Le recently said he would fight Anderson Silva if the UFC would co-promote the fight with Strikeforce. Unfortunately, this likely won't happen. ![]() |

Lashley is pretty good and ungodly strong and should have no problem beating Ken. Cung Le is, of course, a fantastic striker but nothing on the ground. Silva would win easily, imo. Last nights WEC card was pretty good. Mike Brown is turning into a real beast.

I used to see Tamdan at the bars a lot up at school. Never talked to him, but you'd never guess the kid's a pro fighter. |

Well crap!!!
Frank Mir Hurt, Out of UFC 98 Fight With Brock Lesnar The UFC 98 heavyweight title unification fight between champion Brock Lesnar and Interim champion Frank Mir will reportedly not take place on May 23 as scheduled, as Mir has suffered an injury that will keep him out of the Octagon for at least a few months. FiveOuncesofPain.com and MMAMania.com both reported the news Friday afternoon, although the reports conflicted about the nature of the injury and exactly how long Mir will be out. It's not clear whether Lesnar will still fight at UFC 98 against a different opponent, or whether Lesnar will be put on ice until Mir is ready for the rematch. Either way, Lesnar-Mir was the heavyweight fight that UFC fans most wanted to see this year, and this news is a major disappointment. The UFC will announce a new main event for UFC 98 during tonight's pay-per-view broadcast of UFC 96 "Jackson vs. Jardine," MMAFighting.com has learned. Current UFC 98 Card: Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra Sean Sherk vs. Frankie Edgar Josh Koscheck vs. Chris Wilson James Irvin vs. Drew McFedries Houston Alexander vs. Andre Gusmao Yoshiyuki Yoshida vs. Brandon Wolff Phillipe Nover vs. Kyle Bradley Tim Hague vs. Patrick Barry George Roop vs. David Kaplan

I'm pickin' Jardine to knock-out Jackson. I don't think Jardine gets enough credit for the caliber of fighter that he is.

WOrd is Mir vs. Brock will now be at UFC 100. How convenient, lol. Looking forward to Carwin vs. Gonzaga tonight. I passed up great tickets to tonights UFC as I really didn't think it was going to be that good of a card for me to travel to Columbus, especially since I'll be up there next weekend anyways. Oh well, I've been to enough of them. Couple good fights tonight, worth me watching a stream online on my balcony with a cigar and bourbon.
