i think they have equal strength
kos is good enough to avoid the gnp early on
i but i dont think hell be doing and gnp on diego
diegos cardio is better

im stuck between diego 3 rd sub & diego unan decision

i guess i never thought twice about picking swick. i think its his destiny to get to the top (just like chuck and GSP)

i dont understand selling a ppv and not showing all the fights. that just shows the fans how cheap he is. punishing the ones that dont buy a ticket to see it live.

If Serra can put in a decent bout, I think he'll end up being part of most contender's schedules. I don't know if he'll get another shot, but he'll be a test for those that want one. For example, if Hughes wins big, Diego wins big, and Serra stays with GSP for a bit, I could easily see Hughes/GSP III, and Diego/Serra next.

If Serra loses big, as he probably should, I think he gets dropped to the middle of the pack. A Serra/Kos fight might be interesting.


Speaking of Kos, I still don't see how he earned this fight against Diego. I think it's fair to say Diego is one or two quality opponents away from a title shot....Kos isn't even close to the upper tier yet. Seems like Diego has more to lose than to gain from this fight.

your right about kos
but its been too long for diego as it is. quality wins over...
diaz - 4/1 in ufc at the time
karo - 5/1 in ufc at the time
riggs- hasnt been knocked out in 4 years

bj skipped out for 2 yrs, came back, lost to gsp, then still got a shot. 0 / 1
riggs got choked by salaverry, beat lytle cause of a cut, then got a shot. 1 / 1
trigg got choked, won 2 fights and got another shot. 2 / 0

diego hasnt lost since kindergarten and hes 6 / 0 in the ufc. whats the hold up?

i think this is a weak card for a ppv, most of these fights should be on spike. i think there are going to be some good fights i just think it is lacking for a ppv.

Roger Huerta is fighting Leonard Garcia. They were originally scheduled to face off about half a year ago on Huerta's debut. Garcia had an arminjury and was forced to pull out of the fight and was replaced by Jason Dent.

Davis will beat Spratt if he has a smart game plan (i.e. take it to the ground). Spratt has a horrible ground game.



Pete Spratt got knocked out at a World Combat League event that I watched last night. The fight may have been as much as a week old, but he was beat pretty badly. This happened when he did not have to worry about the ground game. He knew what his opponent was going to (had to) do and got caught anyway. I am actually pulling for him, but Davis is going to be hard to beat.

Don't ask me why, but Diego actually told Rogan after his last couple of wins that he wanted to wait for a title shot until he was "READY." When GSP beat Hughes, Diego said he wanted to get into the cage with Hughes. I think he is easily the number one contender for the WW belt. I don't understand why he is so hesitant though. If anyone can elaborate on this I would appreciate it.

This is definitely one that I hope we get to see some of the prelim fights. I have been looking forward to seeing Luke Cummo fight again, and he will get a war with Josh. I also want to see Herring and Imes, i am interested to see how Herring does when someone will stand with him, especially a 6'7'' brawler. Does anyone see Koshcheck taking this one?

ive never been a big fan of herring. i hope Imes lands a huge right hook to the temple and puts herring out....im not picking imes to win but i just wish he would win against herring...

i think melvin's speed and power will be too much for stevenson
