I think Timmy and AA are being really smart. They don't re-sign with the UFC just so they can go make some huge pocket change, then come back to the UFC.

Do you worry about Sony's profits or Microsofts?
Do you enjoy their products?
I would suggest, to just enjoy the card and let them worry about their finances.
Easy enough??

Good luck against Arlovski, Ben.
I knew that is what you were doing in that other forum by the way.

As far as Rothwell and Arlovski. I expect this to be an extremely competitive fight for both guys. But I see Arlovski winning a decision. Rothwell is excellent on the ground and has decent punches, but I think Arlovski is better on his feet, is physically stronger and in better shape, and is also decent with submissions as well. Arlovski also has pretty good takedown defense. I really like this fight. If Rothwell can get him to the ground he can win, so we'll see what happens.

Absolutely. I can not disagree with that.

Arlovski is going to make quick work of rothwell. His hand, foot speed is way to much for Big ben to keep up with.

Hot diggity dog! I may very well attend this show...though I'm sure I'm gonna be hating all the douchebags wearing Affliction shirts all around me, I'll just have to focus on the ring/cage/pit/hex/whatever they end up using. W00t!!1!

I'm excited to see this card for sure. Although I'm concerned with constant flip-flopping on event locations and television partners.
We're two months away from a excellent card - let's see if they can put it all together.
