Lucky except I bet you bought the tix when lesnar was on and when my boy Coleman was set to put a thrashing on Ortiz. If it had a better main event this would still be a solid card. Dana and joe silva should have at least tried to make it legit and get us a main event with guys that actually belong in the UFC.

You bet wrong….I couldn’t afford the seat I ended up getting if Lesnar/Carwin were fighting!

REALLY strongly disagree about Forrest not belonging in the UFC, two fights ago he was the LHW champ. Then he lost 1 fight to Rashad a top five lhw top 3 at the time. Then he got knocked out by arguably the best striker mma has ever seen. Granted I expected more from griffin in that fight but sh*t happens and he is going to surprize alot of people against Tito.
In the name of the Fedor, the Anderson and the GSP, Amen.

Damn! I have the worst luck with attending UFC events as far as the main events go. UFC 106 is number 4 for me. This is what I got to witness for the first 3. Again, I don’t think that these are the worst, but the ones I’ve attended. I just have bad luck when I go to these things.
UFC 56: Rich Franklin vs Nathan Quarry (pretty bad)
UFC 77: Anderson Silva (19-4) vs. Rich Franklin 2 (just OK)
UFC 78: Rashad Evans vs Michael Bisping (horrible!)
UFC 106: ORTIZ vs GRIFFIN 2 (could be the worst yet -run Forrest run!)

I feel bad for you now. Rashad-Bisping was absolutely brutal, brutal business.
