When Nogueira is on a card and isn't featured in the poster, you know the card truly is "stacked."

I don't know either of the fighters Bocek or Edgar so I can't say who is going to win that one.
But it does suprise me that people still doubt Tito Ortiz. The guy has beaten Vitor Belfort, Evan Tanner, Vanderlei Silva, Shamrock(3 times), Forrest Griffin..etc. His only poor performances were against randy couture and chuck liddell, THE TOP 2 LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHTS IN THE WORLD. He will win against Rashad Evans. I think it will be an entertaining fight but won't go the distance. If Tito doesn't finish it in the first round with his relentless ground and pound it will be over by the middle of the second round.
Then hopefully we will see Ortiz vs. Rampage.

Although, I don't want to see Ortiz get any title shot, anytime soon. In fact, I hope Evans destroys him. (and I'm not an Evans fan by any means.)

God the Lightweight division is fun and looking better and better.

This should be an awesome event. Early candidate for UFC/MMA event of the year, by just staring at the card on paper itself.
I read yesterday that Nogueira has been training with a cage since last year. Awesome move, if you ask me. This should make him have no octagon jitters, and have him fight to his full on potential.

I'm pretty pumped for this show. I went to BWW yesterday & put down my money for a table. BTW, does anyone know why this is Sherk's first fight since winning the title in October? Was he hurt, have contract disputes, or what?

Wow.
I didn't think I would get this pumped up for this PPV, but the closer it approaches the more I cannot wait for every single match.
If you look at the caliber of the UFC PPV's in the last year they just keep getting better and better. From top to bottom the fights are entertaining..and this PPV will be no exception especially since almost every fight has very popular names going against each other.
I'm hoping Tito wins..but I don't know why, I change my mind now and I have a gut feeling he will lose. I completely forgot about Evans wrestling and I'm thinking his sprawl will be good enough to defend against Tito's takedown attempts.
We will see though. Should be a good one.

Was he hurt, have contract disputes, or what? He had a shoulder injury that required surgery, putting him on the shelf until now.
