Have trouble sleeping? Try watching UFC 127 on February 26th

Hopefully BJ can prevent this fight from being yet another Fitch snorefest. The rest of the card is completely wack. UFC Fight Night quality.

War BJ.

For christs sake man, wont you ever learn? Stacked cards don't always mean the fights will be good. The last UFC card was nothing great overall. 1 great knockout and 1 other decent fight the whole night. This could easily have some good fights, just like other lesser cards have.

 

[Woosta]

I understand that aspect but there really aren't any interesting fights other than the main event and maybe Sot's fight.

Well by the look of the card, it's not very impressive to me, especially compared to recent and upcoming cards. But like UFC 126 looked stacked but personally I didn't find most of the fights that great. So while there isn't a bunch of big name fights on 127, it could turn out very exciting.

As for BJ-Fitch, I don't see how BJ wins.

 

[waggy]

meh i agree with woosta. nothing there t hat excites me. Only thing i want is to see bisping get his ass knocked out.

Still don't see how! Hey anything could happen and I'd like BJ to win but don't see him doing it.

Anyway, this a PPV card? A lot of people bitch about cards that aren't that bad but this one seems a bit weak for ppv sort of like say UFC 120 which wasn't PPV. Also, isn't Sydney like 12 hours past EST?

Will Hunt lose again, even by submission again? Man poor guy has more loses in a row than Tito or anyone in the UFC! Though that makes him look like shit, when you look at who he lost to (Barnett, Fedor, Overeem, Manhoef, Mousasi, McCorkle) most of them are top level competition. He must have had some kind of Pride contract to still be with the UFC but I'd imagine if he loses this one it won't matter how good it is.

Almost seems like they want him to lose. He's fighting Tuscherer whom I don't know but I see he's an All-American wrestler and in the Lesnar/Deathclutch camp. How does a guy with a kickboxing background deal with that?

dude, some of the worst "looking" cards have been the most exciting. plus im looking forward to watching another good george sotiropolos fight.

 

[duragezic]

No doubt. UFC 126 was widely looked at as stacked but personally I found most of the fights pretty weak (but still enjoyable). Just kind of surprised to see it on PPV with about the same caliber of names as 120 or 122. How are they doing it with the big time zone difference?

coreyb: Are you coreymb on mmajunkie?

 

[coreyb]

nope, not me!

 

[DAPUNISHER]

Fitch better not pick this as the fight to try and be more exciting. He'd better do his best wet blanket impression, or BJ will will get the W. I think BJ will have serious trouble trying to play rubber guard off his back.

 

[Dr. Detroit]

I hope Rivera smashes the cocky brit!

and who knew Mark Hunt was still fighting let alone in the UFC.........

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

Fitch looks like he uses roids. He's got the caveman look in his facial features that the roiders start to get after using that stuff for awhile.

Have trouble sleeping? Try watching UFC.

 

[JackBurton]

The UFC is fucking awful! I'm not interested in their PPV event anymore. I'll take Strikeforce or K-1 over it any day.

 

[Duder1no]

I agree, lame card

 

[wheresmybacon]

Shocking, I agree with Woosta on something MMA-related. After Condit pulled out due to injury, this looks to be the most yawn-inducing card in recent memory. Wife and I will buy this one as per normal, but I'm not expecting much.

John Fitch is a really likeable guy and one of the hardest working fighters I've ever seen. Unfortunately he's also only outshined by Nick "The Snuggie" Lentz as being the most boring. I guarantee this will go to decision, although it's both too close to call and/or who cares who wins. I don't see how you can ever have Fitch being in the Main Event on any card unless he's somehow hugged his way to a title shot again. Shame on you UFC.

The one fight I am actually looking forward to is George Sotiropoulos vs Dennis Siver. George is beast and IMO will be LW champ soon. Once he dispatches Siver I don't think Frank and Lorenzo and Dana will have any choice but to give him the title shot he's been deserving for a while now.

I'm glad there is an event this weekend, but this one looks to be only slightly better than no event at all.

 

[Juddog]

When did ATOT turn into sherdog? I'll still check this out.

 

[CPA]

Any time I have a chance to see that ass Bisping get knocked out, I'm excited. I hate that ahole.

 

[bigrash]

I'll be watching but it does look like a boring ppv though.

If you're looking for a card to fall asleep, I agree with Woosta, this is the right one. However, if you're looking for a card to stay up to, just download the Strikeforce ppv and watch Fedor get pounded over and over again...

 

[marmasatt]

I concur. This is the worst card I've ever seen.....on paper. Of course.... they don't fight......on paper......You never can tell. Some of the worst fights you've matched up can be awesome fights. So where and when are these all on? The first two are like on facebook. The next 3 I believe are on ION. Then it's PPV at the normal time, 10Est?

The facebook fights started at 5pm.
The ION fights are at 6pm.
PPV starts at 7pm.

(And I live on the West Coast, so add 3 hours for EST)

 

[shopbruin]

Wow. Don't leave it in the hands of the judges (first ION fight)
