Agreed Rivet. This truly is one of those great all around cards.
Hopefully it is a great night of MMA to end the last few weeks of silence. Hopefully one or two fights will shake up the divisions and we can have something to gossip about
I'm headed back to college tomorrow, I will need news to keep me busy

I'm headed back to college tomorrow, I will need news to keep me busy | If the UFC puts quality cards like this for the rest of the year, I'll be thrilled. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with an increase in competition, but I'm just glad that it's going on. I'll be stuck way out in Deep BFE, Vermont over the weekend my wife's family reunion so I'll have to avoid the boards until I get a chance to actually watch them all.
I'm considering insulting her Dad so that I'm uninvited. He's pretty low key and more likely to get over it without any long term effects.
Sadly, my wife is far, far smarter than I am and will likely see through it.
Ah well...

rh | Fake injury rivet... just fake injury. If it still doesn't work, just club her over the head like the caveman used to do and drag her into your cave... then watch the event.
Chances are since she was knocked out, she won't remember what happened.

I am looking forward to Kim putting on another clinic and show the world why he will beat GSP when they eventually fight.

good fight card but I dont think it'll be the best we've seen this year.
May was the best followed by August (IMO)
However it might look on paper to be the best card but it might end up being the worst card this year. A LA UFC 73 Stacked....

Palhares and Hendo for me.
I love watching Jitsu clinics and Palhares' first fight in the UFC made me take notice.
Off topic slightly but would love to see Palhares vs Maia!

I like the Franklin fight because he is one of my favorites. But I am really looking forward to the Hendo/Palharres fight. That is going to be good. Palharres has some sick subs and is very quick for his size....contender for Silva?
