Pretty insane card. Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard go into their third fight after the fight of the night in January that led to a split draw between the two, and Kenny Florian tries to win his first UFC title, this time in the featherweight division, against one of the P4P best fighters, José Aldo. Love it!

I hope Pettis is one of the free fights on Spike then.

Yeah, I definitely see it on Spike.
Although both are going to be great fights, I would've preferred Guillard/Pettis.

Wow... when you've got Brian Stann vs. Chael Sonnen - and it's not even the main or co-main event, you know the card is great(!)

id love this card a crapton more if mel wouldve kept his typing to a minimum and got pettis instead of lauzon. dont mind stephens/pettis... but guillard/pettis wouldve been a ball. theres no benefit for guillard or pettis in each of their fights... if they win, theyre in the same spot they were more or less... and if they lose, they drop considerably.
maia/santiago being on the undercard is intriguing as hell though [im presuming pettis/stephens would be on the main card over it]. and of course the top 3 fights are worth the money by themselves.

Damn! This card is stacked already!
I'm already calling it: Josh Grispi's last fight in the UFC
can't wait for Guillard and Lauzon, two of my favorite 155'rs going toe-to-toe. That, as well as Florian/Aldo, make it worth the $

What an awesomely stacked card, really looking forward to it...don't know if Florian can defeat Aldo, but that's what makes it interesting...Maynard/Edgar should be awesome.

I give Ken-Flo a much better shot than I would have before Aldo's fight with Hominick. Should be very interesting. And Maynard/Edgar 3 should be great... I think Frankie will box his way to a (fairly) clear-cut UD win.  |

This is a pretty nice card, hopefully it stays together and nothing gets scratched. I think that Florian fight could be a helluva battle.

Jeremy has already fought both Joe and Melvin, I think that determines in why the fights were set the way they were.

Hope Edgar wins, but have a gut feeling Maynard does

They need a fight like that to go on free TV to entice the fans to order the event.
