I hope it goes to the 2nd at least and I don't think it will end on the ground. I don't see why Fedor would need to take him down unless he gets rocked.

Fedor is not a fan of boxing and Brett seems like he lives and dies with it. Thats why i thought quick take down and brett is done.

Ohh and Mayhem Miller i wonder what funny shit he will pull and the stare down.

[Mo_E30]

Fedor has the advantage on the ground, i wouldn't be surprised if he went for the take down early.. actually.. Yes, yes i would be.

and Mousasi KO!

UFC fighter was eating ketchup and rice before UFC 104
By Steve Cofield

If anyone needed a huge postfight bonus at UFC 104, it was Pat Barry. The heavyweight out of New Orleans, scored Knockout of the Night and Fight of the Night for his victory over Antoni Hardonk. That was good enough for $120,000. Good thing, Barry needed the infusion of cash in the worst way. He confirmed to MMAScrapsRadio that he was completely down on his luck before the fight, agreeing that he had little to eat in Los Angeles the week of the fight.
"I still had my apartment but if something would've happened and the fight had been canceled, I would've been evicted six days later."
Barry, 30, said he didn't even tell his trainer Duke Roufus for fear that he would think the fighter had the wrong motivation going into the fight. Barry said he didn't ask anyone for money including his mother:
"I could ask someone but then at the same time, how hard are you going to work for something if everytime you get in trouble somebody catches you? I did something to put myself in this position I have to work my way out of it."
Listen to Barry talk about his troubles before the fight:


Barry got his $120,000 bonus check last Tuesday. He couldn't believe it. When he went to deposit the check, his truck wouldn't start. Barry got a jump and hit the bank sporting a black eye and pink striped shorts.
"I go to the bank, I'm sweaty, I've got the black eye, I haven't shaven in two days, I'm strung out because I haven't slept, I have green circles under my eyes so I'm like 'Can I have a deposit slip mam?'. She gives it to me, I fill it out hand it to her. She looks at the deposit slip, then the check, then looks at me and says 'Excuse me I'll be right back.' Then a manager comes out, a guy in a suit and says 'What seems to be the problem?' I was like 'Well I have a black eye, that's the only problem I know this looks really ridiculous.' So he asks me for my ID, I hand him my license an he's like 'Your license says Pat Barry, but this check was written to Patrick Barry.' So I decided to be funny and tell him Pat Barry is in my trunk right now. He didnt laugh. So I told him take your time man do whatever you need to do because I have no where to go and my truck probably wont start when I go outside so you can just do whatever you need to do. An hour later he came back and everything was fine, the check was in my bank account."



Well deserved tho, good for him.

What was for sure bullshit was the unanimous decision... These fkng judges were definitely in the pockets of some big time handicappers and betters. Machida was favored 6 to 1. Outside of all the kicks and punches he landed, Rua moved forward damn near the entire time as opposed to Machida moving backwards. Damn shame it went to the judges. Never a good thing.

[E-Thirty]

Glad I didn't go to see this one.

[KenC]

Biggest bullshit decision I've seen in a while. Rua was robbed.

[Maluco]

So Rampage says he's done fighting... Lame.

He said he was rushed into a championship fight with Chuck Liddell in 2007 before he was known by American fans. He said after the win over Liddell, the UFC arranged a fight with Dan Henderson without asking him and then pressured him earlier this year into fighting Evans instead of taking a championship shot against Lyoto Machida.I’ve been getting negative reviews from the dumb ass fans that don’t pay my bills or put my kids though college. So I’m hanging it up.

Could any of this really have come as a surprise to him? Sounds like excuses to me. He beat Liddell anyways and became champion so wtf? Who cares what fans say, most of them are the ignorant kids that don't understand MMA anyways. I didn't like Rampage to much as a person but enjoyed seeing him in fights. I'm sure Dana will throw some money at him though as he is a marketable fighter.

[jrhaile]

Horrible fights all around... what a waste of $45 bucks.

UFC 103 tonight! Went to the weigh-ins yesterday. Junior dos Santos looks huge next to Cro Cop and weighed in 10 pounds heavier. Belfort actually didn't make weight at the weigh-ins, removing his ring, his shorts and eventully, with Dana and someone else holding up a towel, stripped and still came over by just .25.

Belfort destroys Franklin in the 2nd.
dos Santos TKO's Cro Cop in the 2nd.
I want Trigg to win but I kind of see Koscheck taking it.

[Miasma]

Yeah.

[KenC]

Did they air the 7 second KO from the undercard on the PPV broadcast last night?
