Middleweight bout: Chael Sonnen vs. Brian Stann
Featherweight Championship bout: José Aldo (c) vs. Kenny Florian

Are you freaking kidding me? On paper this is the best card of the year I think. I think it's better than 137 by a bit and that is considered a killer card.

I want to win: Edgar, Florian, Sonnen, Phan, Lauzon

All of those are pretty possible or likely except Florian or Lauzon. I guess either could pull it off. Edgar fucking rocks and who wants Maynard as a champ so I hope Edgar really puts it together like the 2nd Penn fight vs the 1st.

Sonnen is just too fucking epic and also I want to see him face Silva again so he better win. I think Stann is a tougher fight than most people think, especially since Stann has been trainign wrestling heavy for 18+ months. And with the long layoff for Chael, it's even a tougher matchup.

I agree. This card is epic. There is not a snoozer fight on here. And that's saying something considering only one heavyweight fight (which is a tad lame). I want everyone you pick except Phan. Gotta go w/ Leonard Garcia. I just have a ton of respect for that kid because he puts it all on the line every night and isn't afraid of getting knocked out.

Now who do I think will win? That's not the same. I'd say Lauzon is in for a quick evening if he decides to stand and bang w/ Guillard. And I love Florian, but he's going down by the 3rd.
 
This card is going to be awesome. None of these fights look like potential stinkers. I haven't been this excited about a card in quite some time.
 
lol.. 1st fight was short.
a striker got knocked down from a punch from a submission specialist. 😱
then an easy choke for the win

Nice to see Lauzon come up with the win. Thought he was gonna get steam rolled as Guillard is on a roll. Someone pm me a good link pls? Sopcast is down and 2 of my usual 4 are in spanish and the other two are skipping, lol.... Anyone?
 
Dude, I can not WAIT til the Silva/Sonnen rematch. I think Silva is amazing, but it's nice to think that there is SOMEONE out there that can bring it to him.
 
what was the deal with there previous fight? I thought that Sonnen was beating him silly for the majority of the fight and then F'd up at the end...

That's basically what happened. Supposedly Silva had a pretty significant rib injury during that fight, though. So hopefully the next fight will be very telling about just how injured Silva really was the first fight.
