Wow – this is a great card and free. Plus the two finalists

Yeah shaping up nice. Lets hope for no injuries, and that Guida comes to fight and not hump. Diego should dominate this fool and (I hope) submit him with strikes.

As for Daddy vs Diaz, I think Nate could win if he uses his standup and range to pick off Joe. He could frustrate him into a desperation move in the 2nd or 3rd round and pull off a tko or a submission. But I don’t think Joe will beat Nate. One of those few fights where the more experienced, former title challenger will be an underdog.

I hope Matt Brown knocks AJ down a few pegs too.

Guida shouldnt even of got this match up. He got his ass kicked by Nate. I was at that fight, and there was no way Guida won that fight. i HAVE SEEN Guida fight several times and its always the same bullshit, Guida is so overrated. All he does is lay on fools the entire fight. Diaz vs sanchez would of made for a better fight in my mind. Guida will get pounced on. Im tired of Guidas boring ass bullshit fights and the wack ass Decisions

Dude you must have a man crush on Nate Diaz. I also think Diaz is a good fighter but being there or watching it on T.V. it was obvious that Clay Guida did win the fight. You probably don’t have much Heart as a man. How could you watch a man fight with so much heart and not respect it? The answer is in The sentence before the Question.

Clay via decision. Nate via submission.

Chris Lytle vs Kevin Burns should be a great fight.

Haha your right.

by belfort_fan on May 13, 2009 1:49 AM EDT up reply actions  

it would be so funny if Joe Daddy gullotines Nate Diaz.

lytle and burns is going to be a great fight but i see lytle getting a decision win.

guida and sanchez = most fast pace fight ever

by austin broussard on Apr 9, 2009 4:00 PM EDT reply actions  

sanchez
stevenson
johnson
lytle

i don’t even like sanchez and he’s from my hometown but man i’ll start being a fan if he knocks guida off the latter.

by chris on Apr 10, 2009 7:23 PM EDT reply actions  

I see Guida overpowering Sanchez and win a boring ass decision. Sanchez looked physically weaker than stevenson and Guida is strong. He is boring yes but a great wrestler

by Patrick on Apr 16, 2009 3:56 PM EDT reply actions  

what the hell are you talkin bout
guidas not boring he rushes the fight and keeps the pace going
hes going to beat diegos ass

Does any one know if Richie Whiston is gonna be fighting on the undercard? I think he got a bum deal and is much better than he looked against Ross Pearson

by corey on Jun 16, 2009 4:31 PM EDT reply actions  

he will probly fight..they dont announce the fights till probly tomorow because the last episode of the season is tonight then they name the fights from the show

by JG on Jun 17, 2009 11:48 AM EDT up reply actions  

Ya thats what i though. Thanks

by corey on Jun 17, 2009 4:29 PM EDT reply actions  

Diego will win for sure then will go after bj or florian

by Jose on Jun 18, 2009 1:44 PM EDT reply actions  

i wanna see frank lester’s fight. it’ll be sick to see what he can do with more time to prepare for his fights. i disagree with dana white saying that wilks is obviously a better fighter than him. he may be but you can’t really judge a guy who fought 4 fights in a month like that. fighters need time to peak. good card.

by nice on Jun 20, 2009 1:46 PM EDT reply actions  

Guida (if Guida is a hound as usuall, diego cant match that pace yet)
Diaz
Lytle
Johnson
Pearson
Guillard
Dent
Osipczak
