UFC on FOX 2 poster for 'Evans vs Davis' in Chicago

UFC on Fox 2 poster pic for "Evans vs. Davis" on Jan 28, 2012, from the United Center in Chicago, Ill., via Ticketmaster.com.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is going above and beyond to ensure that its sophomore effort on network television is a bonafide beast, booking three "huge" match ups for the televised main card.

Rashad Evans vs. Phil Davis will headline the event at the United Center in Chicago, Ill., on Sat., Jan. 28, 2012, in a 205-pound showdown that will likely determine the next number one 205-pound contender if "Suga" can find a way to win.

Two marquee middleweight match ups -- Chael Sonnen vs. Mark Munoz and Michael Bisping vs. Demian Maia -- are also on tap and both have major implications on the 185-pound title picture.

WOW....

This card is really taking shape with some intresting fights. Love it!

by Taiter on Dec 7, 2011 7:37 AM EST reply actions  

This is brilliant match making to set up 2012 nicely

Evans vs. Davis: This sets up a number one contender likely after Dan Henderson if Jones gets his vacation wrapped up or loses to Machida. I’m guessing summer/september we see the winner of this get their tilt

Sonnen vs. Munoz: This is likely number one contender shot A. The winner of this would get first dibs at Anderson Silva.

Bisping vs. Maia:: Number one contender shot B (If Bisping wins). I don’t see Maia getting another crack but maybe they have visions for a Brazil show later on or have Maia be a TUF:Brazil coach with a win. If the winner of contender match A is injured you have a sub right away without delaying A.Silva too far into 2012.

Brilliant match making and i like how important each fight is for each guy and it’s on FOX.

I m kind of afraid for Bisping vs Maia. I think it has a good chance of turning into an horrible fight w/ Maia not getting any TD and Bisping winning by dec.

I hope so, i’d like to see Bisping-Anderson as it be a fresh new face. I mean do i think Bisping will beat Anderson? nope but heck i’d sure love to see the forums crash if he did!

Still don't see why they don't just give the fans what they really want

I don’t get booking Shad/Davis when Jones is about to fight and if he wins then set the grudge fight up already. I’m not saying hendo doesn’t deserve a shot but I think most fans want to see these guys settle their score and Shad has done nothing but win since losing his title. He’s getting Fitch’ed in the worst way.

Shad needs to kick Davis' ass, then go all WWE on Bones in the post-fight interview.

At least I am better than kevjack at making picks. I am satisfied with that.

No…the first one had the most controversial tattoo and Bisping has ink now.

Does anyone else feel like this was the type of card the UFC should have given us since the WEC merger?

Either a championship fight or a #1 contender fight, with former champions, as the main event.
Another #1 contender fight as the first fight after the main
A #2 contender fight as the #3
A slobberknocker
A ground war

Something for everyone, but continue to market good fighters and keep the title pictures as clear as they can be.

I guess someone at FOC feels the same way…

wow does Bisping get another 450,000 nice

by biggant on Dec 7, 2011 9:17 AM EST via mobile reply actions  

he's only getting 'show' money

he’s not winning against maia. Maia might have forgotten his bjj but the dude is all for banging it up now and he’s getting pretty good at it

by ihatepressingf5 on Dec 7, 2011 10:57 AM EST up reply actions  

It’s crazy to see the evolution of maia. He is definitely becoming a very good stand up fighter. Main thing that needs to get better is his cardio. Like the munoz fight he slowed way down after first rnd

MMA = Best sport on earth

by FarNorCal on Dec 7, 2011 12:09 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Davis' cardio isn't exactly the best either

With a physique like that…it requires a lot of oxygen and I’m sure cutting that much weight must be a least a little difficult for him. Davis is going to tire and get really sloppy and that’s when Shad will take advantage and TKO him.
