agreed, although I do think they're Yushin too much credit just because he already beat Alan that one time. Alan will win the rematch by trying something utterly stupid that you should never try to do against Okami and somehow pulling it off. such is his way.

I do want Belcher to win, but I can see why the odds are so close. Barring the win over Belcher, I think he's woefully underrated right now in the eyes of fans. He's a monster at grappling once he gets going.

Alan has shown a great ability at getting back to his feet when things are taken to the mat. Plus, I don't think he even knows that such a thing as mentally quitting exists (though he does know about tapping at least). You just can't break Alan because it doesn't even register in his head that he isn't winning. I think Okami beats himself by grinding and grinding on Belcher and ultimately breaks his own will when he realizes there is nothing he can do to make this man quit.

Rocky sequel style.

Sad news for fans of nonstop product placement. Great news for MMA fans.

LAS VEGAS – The UFC will try out a new broadcast pairing on Saturday for UFC 155 – though that wasn't the plan until this week.

An illness will keep regular pay-per-view play-by-play voice Mike Goldberg at home, and Jon Anik will join analyst Joe Rogan in the broadcast booth.

UFC officials on Friday confirmed the change to MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).

IT'S ALL OVER

 

[TheKaeptain]

I feel bad for hoping that illness is throat cancer

You act as if Goldie mandates said product placement himself and no one else in the promotion is on board with it.

But still, this makes me happy.

 

[alr1ght]

I've heard Goldie call so many matches that I can tell exactly what he's going to say.

 

[Heel]

They could have a soundboard using past commentary and we'd never know the difference, Joe.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Just put

"Corn nuts"

on repeat.

Damn I like his voice...

 

[A More Normal Bird]

I wonder how much Cigano "Cyborg" Santos is going to weigh. If that pic is deceiving it's going to be a huge letdown, as I'm looking forward to a thoroughly gormandised matchup with Reem in 2013.

Holy shit lol!

In his recent interview with Ariel he said maybe 1 or 2 kilos more.

Guillard just wants to bang bros

Viva la Mexico by way of San Diego

 

[saelz8]

Dos Santos has been training, this is the rippest he's ever been.

 

[strikeselect]

Cain put his fist right in Junior's face. He means business.

Should it be Viva Mexico?

[op_ivy]

whatever happened to the "ref cam" they were supposed to debut months ago?

like I said, via San Diego.

They only used it once and all it caught was a large, close up image of Kim Winslow's sweaty nipples so the Fox execs canned it.

But then who will make Randy references?

 

[polyh3dron]

lol I love the intense stares Rogan does in between the fighters.

Best one was when he was in between Victor Gracie and Serpentine Silver. Having trouble finding a good GIF of it right now though.

 

[Maklershed]

lol I love the intense stares Rogan does in between the fighters.

He's trying to use telepathy to tell them "steel tie cups .. diamond mma .. protect the family jewels"

 

[polyh3dron]

Steel Thai cups.

 

[Norml]

Cain put his fist right in Junior's face. He means business.

He was just copying Junior's stance in fear

 

[polyh3dron]

Can just knew that would be the only opportunity he'd ever have to touch Junior Cigano's mandible.

 

[Maklershed]

Steel Thai cups.

I like how you corrected that but not the statement that Joe Rogan can use telepathy. :b

 

[alr1ght]

Okami likes the Man in Black.

Fucking fighters always getting injured and ruining great car... oh.

 

[iddqd]

Just finished listening to Sherdog's pick.
I think I'm actually more pumped for the Co Main event then for the Main event.

I don't even know who's in the co-main.

Boetsch vs. Sonnen?

 

[alr1ght]

Creepy Joe vs White Trash Miller bro

Submission of the night guaranteed by one of these dudes.

It's like they both have it in their contracts that they have to say Randy's name at least once during the main card.

Rogan was ready to bang.

Ah so thats what's had Natch busy.

 

[ChosenPredator]

Joe Rogan is hilarious I specifically look for him at these weight ins..facial expression are priceless

 

[tass0]

This card is going to be great. So many toss up fights but I'm going with:

JDS > Cain
Miller > Lauzon
Costa > Boetsch
Varner > Guillard
Brunson > Leben

 

[polyh3dron]

I like how you corrected that but not the statement that Joe Rogan can use telepathy. :b

Well, that shit he takes to use more of his brain, you never know.

 

[parrotbeak]

I think I might actually go to a bar to watch this. The only thing to decide is whether I really want to go for the prelims and sit at a bar from 3 pm.

 

[parrotbeak]

The weigh ins have the Garcia/Blessed fight on the fb prelims? They were in the first three and then Joe said now on to the FX prelims.

Yep looks like it, will have to fix the OP. Fucking UFC.com said otherwise until like yesterday.

edit: done.

Best Facebook prelims ever? I think so.

Is that real? Please tell me it is real.

 

[polyh3dron]

Very real.

How many hours until the prelims?
