It's hard to ignore so I'm just gonna state the obvious and most likely jinx this one. This card is awesome...

I'm anxious to see what Davis can do against Rashad. It's a huge jump up in competition for him, but he is a physical freak, much like Bones. He's just not as refined as Bones is all-around. That's a really interesting fight.

Munoz has been scatched from the card.

Bisping will now fight Sonnen for the #1 contendership to the MW title.

Also, Chris Weidman will now fight Damien Maia.

I hope Sonnen wins for the sole purpose of getting completely dominated by Silva. Sonnen has been running his suck for a while about a MW title shot.

Silva dominate Sonnen? Did you watch the last fight? Sonnen beat the **** out of him for 4 rounds before Silva beat him on a prayer. If that went to decision, Sonnen beat him unanimously. He whooped Silva's assssss. I agree Sonnen is a piece of crap and so is Bisping... they're great fighters though. Silva might be better prepared this time and whoop Sonnen but if you watched the last fight, you shouldn't be expecting that to be the case. Sonnen seriously kicked his ass last time until he made a minor mistake in the 5th round that resulted in submission. He for the most part embarrassed Silva up until that point.

Even with the card change, still an excellent card on paper. Proprs to Weidman for taking the fight at the last second and putting his undefeated record on the line. Sonnen vs. Bisping is a match of who should have their ass beaten more. I think Bisping is a little less of an a-hole after his beatdown but he still insulted a deaf guy for being deaf. Gonna be a top notch fight between a couple of a-holes.

Pearl, you did leave out the fact that Silva had broken ribs the first time they fought. Not taking anything away from Chael, because he fought a great fight and really deserved to win. But Silva wasn't himself in that fight. Plus, after the failed drug test, it really makes you wonder how the PEDs played a factor in Chael's peformance. I wasn't sure how much myself, but after watching Sonnen dispatch Brian Stann with ease, I'd say the PEDs didn't have much of an effect, which also makes you wonder why he would take them in the first place.

I'm definitely rooting for Chael in this fight, not only because I loathe Bisping, but also because I am dying to see a rematch between him and Anderson. That fight will probably headline a stadium show in Brazil. Dana has already said they plan on fighting at a 100,000 seat stadium down there. A Silva-Sonnen rematch would be the best possible headliner for that kind of show.

I'm a Bisping hater, that is why I'll be rooting hard for Sonnen. Bisping is classless in every way. My hope is that Sonnen does the correct thing by taking him down every 2 seconds vs standing up.

I'm ready for the Evans v Jones matchup, so I would like Sugar to take care of Davis in this one.

I'm a huge Sonnen fan, so I will be pulling for him.

As for Evans v. Davis, I would prefer Davis win. I'm not much of a Rashad fan. Either one would be a good matchup with Bones though.

Phil Davis' physique doesn't look real. He is a freak. He should have a size and strength advantage on Rashad, but he is still mostly unproven.

I hope Davis crushes Evans. Might actually put an end to Rashad's arrogance. He has just always rubbed me the wrong way and I was ecstatic when Machida knocked him out. Hopefully the fight doesn't come down to the judges. Both have won half of their fights by decision so it wouldn't be surprising. Guess that would put the odds at 50/50. Flip a coin

Yeah 142 was in Rio. It's always crazy there. 134 was even crazier because that was the first time the UFC had been there in many years, and Anderson was on that card. That was the wildest crowd I had ever seen for a UFC event that night. It was insane.

I didnt catch 134, for whatever reason.....probably should look for it and watch it.

It has actually been coming on Fuel TV periodically for the past few weeks. I DVRed it a couple weeks ago. Some really good fights on that card. Forrest gets KOed :)sad:) but Big Nog KOs Schaub :))) so that kind of makes up for it. And Anderson was in total beast mode against Okami. Poor guy never had a prayer.
