Isn't his brother fighting tonight as well? Haven't seen him yet, hopefully he is as awesome as his bro.

yeah, Valentijn, and no, guy's 28-25.. Alistair is 34-11 and much cooler to watch fight, mostly now in his 'horsemeat diet' era.

I don't know anyone that has showtime but I hope Fedor wins so he can fight da Reem! Know of any good streams?

that SUCKS dood! I ordered Showtime for the last fight and will prob just keep it through the rest of this GP.

Install Sopcast and google the MMA Channel, then plug that into the channel field. I don't remember the channel but I always find it within a couple of mins of googling 'sopcast MMA channel'.

Fedor vs Ubereem would be the ideal isht!:firehop::firehop::firehop::firehop:

Ubereem by horsemeat diet destruction!

who's watching tonight!? I will trip if Silva somehow pulls off an upset. Without question, the edge goes to Fedor though. Silva better get his huge ass frame on top of Fedor quick and try his best to submit him fast. A task that is as difficult as standing with him in the first place.

the way silva handles himself makes me like him. he doesn't seem nearly as arrogant as other fighters.



i'm also glad forrest got it.

It depends, the way he acted in the Demian Maia fight was extremely arrogant and disgraceful. I don't know if it is a culture thing, his manager, or what, but he is very bipolar in the way he presents himself/is presented. I have also heard that his manager is a terrible translator. I like Shogun's much better.

What? Silva fought a perfect fight.

Yeah I know, that is why I am hopeful he will start fighting again unlike the Leites and Maia fights. Sorry it was unclear.

The Bader/Jones fight was good, did not end how I expected at all. Good thing is, this loss probably doesnt set the loser back at all.

Bader vs Couture/Machida loser? Maybe vs Rampage?

I think Bader's stock dropped a lot. Maybe that's just a testament to how good Jones is though? I scored Round 1 10-8 Jones... Bader has NO offense at all.

[KenC]

Hopefully Silva will actually fight in his next few matches and I can start liking him again.

So excited for Bones v Shogun! At 128 to boot!

I'm the biggest Jones fan, but I think Rua is just too much for him.

[Ryan...]

Wow. That's all I have to say abou the main event..

The Bader/Jones fight was good, did not end how I expected at all. Good thing is, this loss probably doesnt set the loser back at all.

[E30Kaiser]

I had blue balls after that, i got like a semi as Belfort was pushing the action and threw Silva on the ground, then 10 seconds later crazy bullshit knockout. Hopefully Silva will actually fight in his next few matches and I can start liking him again.

Belfort will be back though, hopefully he will get another crack at Silva soon.

[aintnothang]

That ended quickly. haha

Have you noticed Silva gets all tame and mild mannered when the other fighter is all cocky and arrogant? Chael Sonnen, ect. I honestly think half of the fighters talk massive smack at the urging of the UFC (shocker, I know). I'd hazard that Silva really isn't that big of a douche as several other interveiws with trainers, friends, ect, say he's really quite a nice dude.

On a less faggy note: Still think Silva will win. I'm not a huge fan of Vitor. Don't know why.
