Lemme start this with...

Rumble vs Texiera. Big!

Yeah that's about as hardcore a fight as there is out there to be made . Winner probably gets DC after Fatman whips Crackhead at 200. Also Melendez coming off suspension against Barbosa and possibly Holly Holm against that Russian chick with a decent phatty.

Unfortunately i think fatman messed up his shot at Tyrone Biggums lol. He could have fought him coming off that layoff where he did look rusty, now hes hurt himself let cracky shake off that rust and i think he loses again.

Rumble Johnson vs Johnny Basehead, coming soon.

This is a helluva scrap. Rumble Johnson is one of my favorites, but, I'm not sure Texiera is not going to win that one.

I feel the other way about it. I think it's gonna be a slug fest, and I just dont think that anyone can sustain that against Rumble. Both guys only know how to do it one way though, so it's gonna be dirty and it's going to be quick!

I do think Rumble is more explosive while Tex is more methodical. But both are heavy handed as fuck. Jermz is right this won't last long either way.

Overeem-Arlovski on Sunday as well. Another fight where we most likely won't see the final bell.

Still can't stand Overeem, I hope Andrei fucks him up.

Overeem is on a nice roll. Perhaps one more win away from a title shot.

Anyone that can last a round and a half with RUmble will whoop him...he has no gas tank but has that rocket fuel explosiveness. Its the curse with those real power dudes. Its sad to watch them gas out.

Arlovski is chinny and Overheem is a bad fight f0r the Pitbull unfortunately.
REmember Arlovski beating Fedor like a chump until Arlovski supermans into Fedor fist?
Arlovski is damaged goods at this point I think. I wish he wasn't but its what I see at 37yo

I agree with that assessment about Rumble. It'll be interesting to see if he's done anything about it.

Arlovski looked like damaged goods upon his comeback to the UFC, then had a nice little renaissance. Unfortunately after his last couple fights it looks like he truly is done.

China is about to buy the UFC

Anderson Silva is out of UFC 198 this Saturday . That would have been an intersting fight with Uriah Hall.

I am tired of seeing cooked unmotivated Silva in the ring. Hall would have won, and then went out pretending that Silva isnt cooked. His time is up.

Silva is way past it but he still would've beaten Hall. There's a reason that fight was made for Brazil.

Dude lost to Bisping. Him beating hall was no kind of foregone conclusion.

Bisping is a solid fighter, better than Hall, and it was a super close fight.

Same class of fighter to me. Hopefully they can fight one day and we'll get an answer.

Hall looks the part and has had some sensational moments, but he's an overall underachiever. certainly would've been an interesting fight, I was looking forward to it. as for the PPV, Souza/Belfort are going to tear the house down. Miocic is going to upset Werdum.

Wil Brooks, as LW champion, was just released by Bellator. Was looking forward to him and Benson. Now I'm looking forward to Brooks in the UFC.

Werdum gets KOd in Brazil. Fucking love it.

That was one of the funniest KOs ever too. Werdum was literally chasing Miocic around the Octagon like some excited ass little kid. Miocic kept back peddling then lands a perfect shot to the chin, then Werdum, without breaking stride from his chasing, falls face first out cold. Hilarious.

Dam that sucks. Werdum was was kicking ass and looking to become the firt somewhat dominant heavy and at least make 3 defenses since it has never been done. Oh well dummies get too excited at home sometimes.

As for the Spider, he deserved tht fight vs Bisping and didnt seem as cooked as you would think.
