i will be there, with these matches as well as cote vs almeida. looking like a good undercard. hill vs buchholtz. already 8 matches with 3 not confirmed yet. they still need a co main event as well as another match or two to be added.
i see 4 main cards so far
rampage vs griffin
kos vs lytle
cote vs almeida
stevenson vs tibau

they need another light heavy or heavyweight bout added

Lookin pretty good so far

I’d love a Chris Lytle & Forrest Griffin win

They defo need to start adding heavyweight and light-heavyweight bouts though

If you see 4 main cards you must be:

a) retarded

b)drunk and/or stoned on crack

c) dana white’s buddy

Id like to see
185- Okami vs Leben
HVYWT- Mir vs Werdum
170- A.Johnson vs Alves
205- Hamill vs Irvin

yeah, i agree that okami and leben are good fighters, but stylistically it would be a boring fight, cause okami is strong enough to put leben on his ass and draw out a decision.

i’d much rather see leben vs bisping…

OKami KO’s Leben
Werdum TKO Mir
Alves TKO A.Johnson
Irvin Ko’s Hamill

What the hell is Guillard’s punk ass doing back in the UFC? WTF?

Hopefully he is his old exciting self and stops acting like a thug in the Octagon.
