My bookie is in for a world of hurt this week. A great day of betting in general with Barcelona, Pharoah, Cotto, Porier and Hendo. These days are rare so I'm basking in it before I throw away money tomorrow on the Cavs/Warriors game.

Said it before and will say it again - UFC needs to use the smaller ring way more often. Consistently more action/finishes. It's part of what made WEC so awesome.

Henderson is one of the best us american MMA fighters there ever was.
He fought them all...

Saw this interesting little bit of research from jeicex on Reddit mma about 'The Eminem Walkout Curse' in the UFC. Fighters walking out to Eminem are 25-41-1. And more interestingly, all 8 fighters that have used "Lose Yourself" as their song have lost.

Is that the new 'American fighter wearing flag shorts abroad' curse?
Tito's legacy lives on, friends.
High chance that there knees were weak and there arms were heavy.

Something cheesy about Rothwell. Feels like he's trying too hard because he knows he's not sniffing a title shot any other way.

I think he just likes fighting.
Have you seen the division? He's one fight away without saying a word. That pencils him into Cain's 2017 schedule.
Ben Rothwell vs. Andre Arlovski II for #1 contender in 2015. Book it, brehs.

i get the feeling Dana will give us Cain/JDS IV before Rothwell gets any where near a headline PPV slot.

I wonder how mom's spaghetti helps with a weight cut.
They probably dropped a couple pounds after vomiting it on their sweaters.

As long as doesn't forget what Sensei Segal wrote down,
While he's trying to remember the whole crowd will go so loud cause he'll be choking wondering how.

The clock's run out, time's up, over, 25-30!

Much like with Bader, while the record reflects that Rothwell should prob be next in line, nobody will ever believe the promo packages UFC puts together. The only way is if they really put him over as a d-bag that needs to be beaten "Look at this guy ... He shaves his back but nothing else. And what's this weird Vega hand thing he does? Root for Cain!"

That and:
Cain/Werdum vs. Arlovski
Rothwell vs. Miocic (for No. 1 contender)
JDS vs. Overeem
Browne vs. Mitrione
And you thought the LHW division was shallow. In all honesty, if Cain loses to Werdum I can see DC stepping up to fight Werdum in order to become a two-division champion. It's not as if anything else interesting is going to happen.

Everyone should root for Cain to win because if he does they are going to expect him to say something in spanish to the Mexico City crowd.

lmao dude his Spanish is so bad.
Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves--he still has time to get injured.
they should have werdum translate

Don't worry, they can just ask DC to step in and replace Cain.

Most of my friends can't speak Spanish for shit but like half of us have parents that are fluent.

I'm assuming for Ken and Kimbo they'll have to do the fight on a boat in international waters.

I wish I could've seen that Dada 5000 card. Bareknuckle, triangle-shaped cage, international waters.
Hell, I should've taken Friday off and try to attend it.

The Scottrade Center apparently. I never knew that place was in an Indian reservation.
This Bellator card looks pretty good all things considered. Pitbull will defend his belt. Lashley vs. Thompson 2 has a 50% chance of having a devastating KO, and we're about to see the last of Michael Chandler's brain cotton leave the building as well. That and the serious potential for Ken Shamrock to be legit killed on live TV.

Is this what CM Punk's debut will look like?

Damn. Who sanctioned that? "Curves, a symbol of combat known worldwide."
Not with the power of the Shamrock Shake coursing through his veins!
And I can't believe I forgot Cain was fighting this weekend, my brain must have assumed he would injure himself again.
She's 0-3, got to wonder how the first 2 went down.
