if fedor versus a top 10 heavy weight does not interest you, sorry bro you probably aren't a fan of mma

let me guess hes ducking 4-1 brock lesnar, 8-0 cain velasquez, 12-0 shane carwin, and 13-5 frank mir

fedor/werdum is at least as competitive matchmaking as gsp/hardy or silva/maia, but i guess those matchups are cool because they were in the ufc

Werdum is a never-was. Seriously...we mocked Big, Fat Tim Silva who posed a more dangerous threat to Fedor than Werdum. Who's Werdum beat that's worth a damn?

I don't know how calling Werdum out for being another casualty is not being a fan of mma. I'm not a fan of shitty fights, period. I didn't complain when Fedor fought Arlovsky. I won't complain if/when he takes on roid-monkey Overeem either. But I'd like to think he can fight someone tough.

Put it this way, after Carwin, Brock would have fought much tougher competition since coming to MMA than Fedor has over the same period of time. Is that what the greatest of all time should be doing? PEACE.

starts at 10pm est, but west coast has a tape delay so it airs at 10pm pst

a stream will start at 7pst though.


anyways, Fedor will win

Cyborg vs finney is a stupid ass fight, shoulda been Erin Toughhill, who is a way more deserving opponent.

Hope Smith knocks out Cung again just to shut him up for good.

Thompson via UD

not too excited about the card, but i'm sure they will deliver.

channelsurfing.net (it's ok since it's not PPV right??)

it'll start at 7pm here in cali.

Also, DirecTV for the fucking win, they have Showtime East.

DirecTV is (now that we have Versus back) the best TV programming service for MMA fans.

I'm going with:

Werdum by Split Decision - Arona, NEVAR FORGET
Cyborg by Brutality - Like you said EC this is a laughable opponent, Finney has already lost to many of the fighters Cyborg has already beaten WTF.. She is kinda cute in a Jillian Michaels kind of way though.
Le by Decision
Healy by Submission - Thomson picked the wrong journeyman to fuck with I think...

I think Thomson vs. Healy will end up being the best fight of the night.

Well, Tapout apparently has an exclusive agreement with Zuffa where they are allowed to sponsor fighters in other promotions but they can't sponsor other promotions outright. Fedor is part-owner of M-1 Global, which is *technically* co-promoting the event tonight, so sponsoring Fedor is *technically* sponsoring a promotion.

Fedor's management wanted Zuffa to treat Fedor as if he was his own promotion, Zuffa is simply doing Fedor's bidding. :lol

Whatever it takes to make Fedor either join the UFC or go away for good. Fedor is the Brett Favre of MMA at this point.

I have to disagree, I rather see her as a decent fighter than a terrible actress, but we will see how her acting turns out.

Really nowhere to go, she already lost to Cyborg and there aren't that many legit female MMA'ers(that I know of, feel free to preach).

Stealth EDIT: It's also bout money more than anything.

Sweet, apparently Showtime is now on DTV's HD package. I guess I get to watch it live. :D

So when Fedor wins, do they give him a title shot without a new contract?

Some really entertaining grappling there. Loved Healy's takedowns, and Thompson's active submission game.
