That fight is as compelling as when Rothwell was scheduled to fight TBA.

I'm glad they are bringing a strong showing to Chicago (mainly because I live here and will get to see it in person).

Fisher vs. Guillard has a lot of KO potential and should be great for a prelim.

I hadn't heard about Griffin vs. Sherk yet.

Dana told me at the airport in Vegas that he is a top five HW and Sylvia and Fedor or not, so he has to be good.

The card is nice and to tell you the truth, so are all of the cards from here on out. Hate on Dana White all you wants but the UFC has SO many good fighters now that there should be no reason for not having solid, stacked lineups like this every month. My only beef is that we don't get to see the preliminaries. There is always one or two preliminaries that I'm upset not to see.

Either can I but it hasnt been announced yet. As soon as they announce it iŽll take unannounced by TKO although there is a possibilty of unannounced taking it by armbar.

lmao so to everyone else in MMA he's a bit of an underdog/gimme fight so that Werdum had to sign a new contract before his title fight?

Werdum vs. Dos Santos @ 265? That dude must be huge.

Card looking pretty good. Surprisingly unexcited for Sherk vs. Griffin.
