Silva said today he wants to fight sonnen.in brazil but the ufc have not given him a time and place yet.

UFC 139 Main Card Predictions:

Shogun Rua def Dan Henderson by 4th Rd TKO
Cung Le def Wanderlei Silva by 1st Rd KO
Urijah Faber def Brian Bowles by UD
Martin Kampmann def Ricky Story by UD
Kyle Kingsbury def Stephan Bonnar by SD

Chael sonnen is a cheating douchebag.

takes two fighters to make a fight exciting so people need to consider that before criticizing GSP

Diaz could be the fighter to put on a great show with GSP

I for some reason see this fight similar to gsp/fitch

 Gsp is nothing like anyone diaz has faced before, he’s always avoiding his opponents strengths and attacking his weaknesses. No way he stands infront of the cage and takes a beating like diaz’s last two victims. I really don’t think gsp is in much trouble on his feet and feel most underestimate his stand up with diaz. This is a very tough fight for nick style wise, but anything can happen.

by nathang on Nov 16, 2011 1:55 PM EST reply actions  

If gsp stands with Nick I’d be ecstatic but diaz wouldnt have too much trouble with gsp on the feet. Diaz isn’t like the stand up fighters gsp has faced. Diaz is a combination puncher and wears his opponents out he doesn’t have that one punch you need to look out for. If gsp stood with diaz I don’t care who gsp has training him he wouldn’t be diaz on the feet

This is the first UFC PPV i’m going to miss in years, shame too because it’s going to be great to see Condit KTFO Kos live but on principle I can’t support what Dana did to Carlos so i’m boycotting this card.

thats what i waS thinking

This card is weak but the ME is a spectacular match up.

If fans who supprt the product by buying ppv send a cleaf message to the ufc by boycotting 1 or 2 cards because of this internet fiasco it would make a huge impact. Im sure this has been mentioned already but it would be nice to see fans come together and make their thoughts nown

by dia mette on Jan 23, 2012 10:33 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Too bad Lesnar retired cause that's a perfect card to boycott

Something needs to change tho. Its rediculous that we pay $45-$55 a month for ppv n then when its done if we want to see it again we have to buy the dvd. They should almost make accounts on UFC.com n once you buy the ppv its saved in your account or something so you can watch it whenever you want. Plus on top of that having to pay for fuel to receive shitty commentating. I understand why they get pissed at streaming. But I also think Dana has forgotten who helped him and the UFC get to where they are today. That’s why his comment after the Valasquez/Dos Santos fight pisses me off so much. “No I don’t give a shit what the hardcore fans think!” Well you should Dana.

Your aware that Condit isn’t fighting Koscheck anymore and is fighting Nick Diaz for the interum title right?

by KCmmaBadBoy on Jan 23, 2012 10:43 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Diaz vs condit FOTY especially if it goes all 5

I got Diaz, but close call. And on UFC.com it says jorgensen vs barao is a prelim _ if so, that’s just ludicrous.

by Mr.Italiano on Jan 4, 2012 12:28 AM EST reply actions  

I think this will look a lot like Nate-Cerrone. Nick will outbox him until either a late finish or a dominant decision victory.

I don’t know who the other guy is, but Herman would have to cut an arm off to make LW.

As in terms of match ups or are you striclty referring to the ME?

I'm super excited for a lot of those matchups, Werdum-Nelson is intriguing, Barao-Jorgensen is a great matchup, Koscheck Pierce should be good also.

Main event is as good as it gets. Poirier and a new and improved Bruce Leroy both on the under card. Starks-Herman could bring out a new top guy at middleweight.

Fuck, this card is just overall amazing.

I wish I had your enthusiasm. I don't expect a lot out of this card except for the ME.

I don’t like this main card, the only fights I like is

Diaz Condit and Jorgensen Barao

I thinks werdum vs nelson will be a good fight. This card isn’t too bad

by zesotheclown on Jan 23, 2012 1:48 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

undercard is not bad

but the main card bleh…

Clifford Stark’s debut sucked.
Mike Pierce hasn’t beaten big enough names yet and doesn’t have much star power yet .
Big Boy Roy and Werdum match up just seems kind of random

roy vs werdum could be really good

but werdum is on real thin ice with me if he loses and looks like shit they need to fuck him off back to shark fights . I think he’ll come out looking to make it a good fight though because he knows after that last debacle he’s hanging by a cunt hair .

Diaz, Werdum, Barao, & Kos FTW

Except due to the last two Koscheck fights, I’m really havin doubts about his striking ability/defense, not that it was ever top knotch lol
