So do I,
I hate Dana half the time. But at the end of the year he makes me forget all of his wrong doings by STACKING a card year after year after year...

Japan has freak shows, Dana has The Absolute Best Cards ever- at the end of the year


I love you Dana...

`Meltzer also stated that Shogun has agreed to the date, and Machida will let them know if he's healthy enough to take it.`

Just thought this was of importance.....Hopefully Machida will be recovered and ready

I just don't understand how any one could have not enjoyed that fight. I eagerly await a rematch and hope there is a more decisive finish this time around.

I couldn`t agree more, the whole fight you could just feel the margin for error was razor thin with the skill set on each side. Edge of my seat the whole fight.....rematch cannot come soon enough.

isnt this the same card as Lesnar and Carwin/ Sila-Belfort this card as like 7 main card fights if this happens.
I'm glad theres a rematch but what are they going to do for the event that is 26 days away that only has 2 main card fights

I would guess that they do it superbowl weekend. They currently do not have a main event, and they usually have a big fight for that weekend. As much as I wanna see a rematch soon, so everyone can move past this fight. I hope they do it that weekend.

barely any punches were thrown.
