Heard Shogun was looking fantastic in training camp. Getting hyped for the fight.

Here are my picks:

Rua by TKO RD2
Faber RNC RD2
Schaub TKO RD3 :'( (Hope Cro-Cop can pull it off somehow.)
Miller gets the upset with a UD

What do you guys think?

Im pumped for this one too War.

If Shogun wins it it will be by TKO with some brutal kicks being landed along the way. If Jones wins i believe it will be by ground n pound late in the fight. Im rooting for Shogun but by gut tells me Jones is gonna take it hope im wrong though.

Faber should win this one easly and if he does i think he'll gte a crack at Dominick Cruz next.

War look out for Edson Barboza that kid is a beast future LW champ IMO. His fight will be televised free on spike.

The Jon Jones hype machine will end with Lesnar-esque speed very soon now.

I will try to catch the Edson Barboza fight if I can, but the time difference may prevent it. I'd have to wake up at 7:00 in the morning to make it happen, and I just ain't that self-disciplined yet.

I hope so.

I'm glad that Shogun is healthy for this. Would hate to see him lose because of surgery.

This is gonna be a good fight.

Still going with Jones, but acknowledge that this may be Shoguns coming out party and not Bones's.

Luis Cane just raped Eliot Marshall. I think the ref wanted him to die in there, he could've stopped it a minute earlier than he did.

Just had another death in the ring. Koch caught Assuncao with a punch errily similar to the one that Franklin caught Liddell with.

Apparently Jon Jones caught a robber while meditating in a park about 2 hours ago, lol. Guess the tables will turn here very shortly. Jon Jones gonna get stomped trying to make off with Shogun's belt.

never was impressed by Assuncao and marshall two fighters that IMO don't belong in the UFC.

Barboza had a good win but held back too much at times but that spinning back kick that landed was a thing of beauty had there been a few more seconds left in the rd he would have stopped Nkaojani. But at only 24 yrs of age and 8-0 Barboza will be the future of the LW division in a few yrs.

Bruce Buffer bugs me. I used to didn't mind him, but damn he's getting annoying.

Any streams out there?

Schaub being aggresive so far. That may not always be a good idea. Mirko has always been at his best going backwards.

Good battle. Crocop coming on especially with point taken away. Great crocop elbows

Schaub game as hell. Nice tds

Schaub tiring. Wow wow wow what a punch what a fight. Schaub hung in and got it done whern least expected. Damn

Damn. Schaub landed a lucky punch in the 3rd. I called it, but I'm not happy about it.

May be the last time we ever see Cro-Cop in the UFC. Or in a professional fight period.

Thanks for all the memories, Mirko. You're a good dude. Ride off into the sunset with your head held high.

Yep. I think it is likely he's done. Damn Crocop and Fedor.

Indeed.

Marquardt seems much bigger than Miller

Marcort seems much bigger. Nice matchup. Close round. Tough to call

Close first round for Marqardt and Miller. Give Miller the edge for the submission attempt.

Nate looking better in the 2nd so far. Landing some nice strikes.

Marquardt looking good, but just got taken down.

Back on their feet. Miller must be hungry, cause he's eating alot of punches right now.

Miller tried for another guillotine.

Helluva good fight. Looked like Miller was hurt by that kick and right hand. Marquiarts guillotine defense is the story

I think nate won that round solidly

Marquardt takes the second. First round was close. We may have an even fight going into the second, or Nate may be slightly ahead. Did Miller tire himself out going for those guillotines? Lets see.

Boy Miller can take a punch.

Miller is such a scrapper but nate is in control right now

Nate in Miller's guard now. I picked Miller to pull off the upset, but it isn't looking likely.

What a fine dogfight. Listen to those pukes booing

If Nate gets any lower or Miller can pull up a little, he could work for the triangle, but Nate is too experienced for that I reckon.

Nate by at least 2-1, imo

American audiences are known for that.

Miller indeed went for the triangle at the end, but too little too late.

I would agree Nate at least 2-1, but probably a UD if I know UFC judges.

And there you go. All 3 judges 30-27 for Nate Marquardt.

Jim Miller vs. Kamal Shalorus up next.

Haha Shalorus is hilarious. "My gameplan is fight."

Miller deserved better. Especially taking it on the short

Saw some nice boobage in the audience as Miller was getting his face greased with vaseline.

Damn. Goin for the fences

School yard brawl here.

Shalorus wasn't joking, lol. His gameplan is indeed fight.

These guys are making Ricardo Mayorga look technical

Best card in a long time

Shalorus has a cinder block on his neck. Man that kick he ate was nasty sick.

Miller got that round solidly. Shalas chin is ludicrous

Good first round, Miller will probably get it but it wouldn't be outlandish to give it to Shalorus, knowing how much UFC judges value top position on the ground.

Shalorus just punched Miller in the thigh. Great fight.
