Time to start feeling better. He beat 2 relatively recent ex UFC heavyweight champs in the last 18 months.

yes, he did. However watch those fights. Those guys were open to Bretts bombs. I don't see this happening with Fedor.

I meant it's dumb to act like Fedor hasn't fought anyone in years, when his last 2 wins were against UFC champs. So many of the hardcore fans have become little Dana Whites... because Fedor didn't sign with the UFC he sucks/is scared/fights nobodies blah blah blah.

I think after saturday there might be a switch. I think if strikeforce can pull a couple more cards off and fighters start leaving the UFC people opinions could change.

I've always liked Alexander. I know, I know, he has no ground game (unless he's improved that recently), but I still like him. I'm looking for Alexander to stay on his feet and TKO Kimbo in the second. And hey, even if Kimbo does take Alexander to the ground, what the hell is he going to do?

Mark my words: Kimbo v. Butterbean coming to state fair near you.

Pros pick fedor v. Rogers, this made me chuckle:
Ray Elbe: Ever been to Russia? The weather is freezing, the girls are expensive and the Vodka is cheap. That's what we call a nation with a fighting tradition. Fedor by Rogers dropping the soap, some time in the second round.

The Fedor Vs Rogers card is a solid card even with out the BIG HEADLINER.
SAturday is going to be a very good night!

I lawled at this preview because this is seriously like the fourth time they have run a preview about Kimbo maybe getting a second chance. I have decided that watching The Ultimate Fighter has become depressing because I realized how disappointed I am that the Quinton Jackson vs. Rashad Evans fight isn't happening. Seeing all the tension between them on the show is such a letdown cus man it would be such a good fight! Hopefully Rampage will burn through his A-team money and come back to the UFC at some point, I am sure it will happen eventually.

 

[Mauro]

^^its not like Rampage is Johnny Depp I dont think he got paid that much.

 

[Mauro]

All right boyz.

shall we place some low level or friendly wagers on tonights fights???


Who is watching and any place special??

I am watching with the fights with some of my team. **** could get nuts!
