Aldo will not care about home field advantage and in fact asked to fight Urijah in Sac

This is going to end in a knockout, and Faber is going to be the one on the ground sleeping

agreed. while it will take 2 seconds for faber to think this is great fighting for my hometown fans

jose aldo’s speed will knock him out or tko him.

I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. I was building a house, I don't deserve this, deserves have nothing to do with it. Bang. "Unforgiven" I drink your milkshake. I drink it up! "There Will BE Blood"

I believe that tito fell into the deep cavernous vagina that is jenna jameson, cracked his skull in 3 places and hurt his back again…

In fighting and everyday life you should be determined, though calm. Meet the situation without tenseness, yet not recklessly; your spirit settled, yet unbiased. An elevated spirit is weak, and a low spirit is weak. Do not let the enemy see your spirit.

PPV or Spike?

Nevermind.

There is no way it can be PPV.

Buttchin doesnt have a chance

But since he gets a titleshot every other fight I believe he will get the belt again someday .. no idea how he would win against Aldo though.

Aldo by Knockout is inevitable...

Fighting in your home town is not a advantage… Being bigger, faster and 3x the striker your opponent is an advantage…

uh how can you not see the home field as an advantage to faber? sacramento has easily the dumbest fans on earth and are loyal like no other, i think it’s a combination of the simple minded stupidity here, and the fact we have no other champions around except the river cats…

i personally have urijah getting his head knocked off and cant stand the guy i think he’s overrated and this whole shit hole city is all over his balls giving him this hype he really doesnt deserve, he’s a lay n pray wrestler and if he cant do that he usually gets his ass kicked his striking sucks, and his submission game is good against cans wooo hooo

im going to make so much effing money betting all the stupid doctors from uc davis that still think urijah is the man

He didn't say that Faber wouldn't have the hometown advantage

Deal said that having the crowd on your side doesn’t matter if your opponent is better than you in every way like Aldo is. Aldo by murder, he’s going to be a dominant champion until he decides to bulk up and fight at 155 in the UFC.

"Not a lot of professional sports down here (in Australia)"
"We just had our best season (of TUF) last season and it was season 10"
"Nogueira is probabaly the best HW of all time"

Dana White, proving that he's clueless about Australian sports, has never heard of Fedor and is still trying to hype up TUF 10.
