I haven't been impressed with Overeem lately

[kit99bar]

Just because Werdum was flopping left and right!
These are still fun to watch.  Definitely not as good as UFC fighters so the Brock fight will answer a lot of questions.

[bagley920]

Let's focus on next weekend, UC 139, Shogun or Hendo?

[kit99bar]

Hendo vs Shogun:  to hard to call.  I want Hendo to win though.
Silva vs Le:  I think Le will take this pretty easily and get a shot a Silva.  Kinda a gift from the UFC as it will be a big draw.

Alright fellas, who you got tonight? Cain or Junior?

@bagley920:

Alright fellas, who you got tonight? Cain or Junior?

Either Junior takes it standing up or Cain takes him down and wins the ground-battle

[kit99bar]

I think JDS is going to be able to keep it mostly standing and will beat Cain via decision or late rounds KO.

[bagley920]

Well, 1:04 isn't much to judge from but I thought Junior would win if it was a standup fight.

[kit99bar]

Unfortunately, Cain didn't get grapple with him.  Dana was bitching about it after the fight instead of complimenting JDS lol

[bagley920]

Dana wants to keep the Hispanic community interested, plain and simple. He's in it for the money.

[kit99bar]

true true! 
He also wanted a 5 round back and forth battle for the ages instead of a fight shorter than a tampon commercial. hha

[bagley920]

In that situation, I agree, being the only fight televised. Kind of a let down for a one hour event and only 1:04 of actual fighting. I was hoping they would televise the Guide/Henderson fight. That was an awesome fight.

[kit99bar]

Agreed again, UFC really screwed up with not televising that fight

[bagley920]

Either way, I think the UFC is looking up. Given the last 2 boxing promos were a sucker punch by Mayweather and a robbery by the judges for Pacman, now is the time to capitalize!

[bagley920]

Overeem failed a drug test, shocker!

[bagley920]

Anyone else super excited about Anderson vs Chael tonight?

[Guest]

I don't typically get hyped for your average UFC card, but this has the making to be a truly spectacular fight. I'm hoping I can round up some people to catch it at a local watering hole.

[bagley920]

There was 8000 people at the freaking weigh in. Crazy!

[kit99bar]

Randomly saw Sonnen at LAX last Monday.  Will be cheering for him!

[bagley920]

The fight ended as I thought it would but it could easily be argued that that knee to the chest was a glancing blow to the face and thus illegal. Either way, Sonnen was stupid for throwing a spinning back fist and falling down. Not his style!
