I am looking forward to Cruz vs Faber. I have been a long time Faber fan but something dawned on me last night as Cruz was talking to Rogan.
Cruz mentioned to Rogan he knows how Faber is behind the scenes and this opened my mind a bit as I have never seen or followed Faber outside the octagon. Now that I have had time to reflect on what Cruz has implied and the subtle hints I have seen from Faber throughout the years, I am beginning to believe Cruz may be correct in his assessment of Faber.
I know there is no fighter bashing allowed but I'll simply say this: Faber and I would not be friends even if we grew up together and went to the same schools. I still admire the guy as a fighter but as a person, we could not be friends.

Both Faber and Cruz strike me as Chads.

It's definitely Wandy-Leban. Has to be. Its an absolutely ridiculous fight. Somebody is all but guaranteed to go down unconscious.
Next for me actually Ortiz vs Bader. Let's see if Ortiz can pull one last fight out. He's always in a exciting fight too.

...and that usually means the fight is going to go the distance.

I disagree, there's a lot of fighters who have given me that impression and these two definitely don't.

Tito or Bader? I hope you're talking about Bader!

Seriously? Out of all fighters in MMA, they strike me as Chads more than any others. Heck, I can't even think of anyone else that does...
EDIT: Okay, I forgot about GSP.

Honestly, all except for Tito/Bader look exciting. Obviously Wandy/Leben is gonna be crazy. I love Guillard. He'll blitz Roller. And Dominick Cruz is so active with his standup. Can't wait. Looks like another great card.
