Siyar vs. Alves is going to be INTENSE.
they really did a good job of making this card exciting...I am really interested in it now...

im considerably more excited for all 4 other presumed main card fights, than i am for the actual main event. i hope koch can surprise me... but something about your best win being over assuncao [unless youre a big fan of brookins i suppose], just doesnt say title contender to me.

Looking at this main event, it kind of reminds me when people thought Josh Grispi was the guy to beat Aldo. Little more than a year later, and I laugh at that notion.

Alves and silva off the card. Jesus injuries ed our show up. God only knows when UFC will bother to come to Calgary again. I just sold my tickets to my uncle. Was excited for my first live ufc event but really cannot stomach the over $100 a seat for the nosebleeds for this card. Sent from my GT-I5500M using ProBoards

Aldo's out according to MMAWeekly. Faber/Barao fight moved here as the main event

Faber/Barao is a great fight. But nevertheless, this card has taken such a beating it's unreal. At this point, I almost feel like this should be a Fox special. This really doesn't feel like a PPV card anymore.

I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I am just dying laughing at all these injures.

Bisping is injured and Lombard replaced him. lombard/boetsch eh... im in. i dont even mind barao/faber, i might still get this one. those two fights alone make it better than 147.

Middleweight bout: Michael Bisping vs. Tim Boetsch Welterweight bout: Thiago Alves vs. Siyar Bahadurzada Heavyweight bout: Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Cheick Kongo Light Heavyweight bout: Maurício Rua vs. Thiago Silva Featherweight Championship: José Aldo (c) vs. Erik Koch ...this card seems cursed - it's taken such a battering, it's unreal ( none of the original main-card fights ^ will be taking place). I'm half-expecting something to happen to Faber...

I think the card looks fantastic! I believe Barao puts a beating on Faber. Hector vs Tim is the hardest fight to call IMO Both are incredibly powerful, and I just dont know if Tim could get hector down or hold him down. I see Kongo vs Jordan being a 3 rd standup war! Rather excited to se the ring vs court 3rd round also!

Couple changes.
Matt Riddle replaces Siyar Bahadurzada to face Chris Clemens.
Brian Ebersole replaces Claude Patrick to face James Head.
