UFC 104

Anybody going to order or be watching the fight tomorrow? If so are you picking to win on the main card.

Machida or Shogun

I think that this is going to be one of the better fights that we have seen in a long time from the UFC.

I'm going to go with Machida because it's so hard to get clean shots on the man. But I wouldn't be to surprised if Shogun upset him. Plus with Machida the excellent counter striker that he is, and Shogun being the agressor. I think it's setup to be nothing less than a KO for one of them.

Who you guys picking?

Will be with some buds at our waterin' hole, as usual.

This is the first UFC in a while that I'm in the dark about, though... mostly goin' because it's routine. My friends are more up to speed on the fighters than I am, as-of-late.

You're sayin' it's gonna be a great fight? Can't wait.

Hell yeah I'll be ordering this, I never miss a UFC fight. I've got Machida all the way in this one. The dude is too slick, can't be hit. I see him hanging back and picking Shogun apart and the once Shogun gasses, knocking him out.

I'm pretty pumped for the Fisher vs Stevenson fight. I think that one should be fight of the night.

I really do think that Velasquez is really going to hurt Rothwell in the Heavy Weight bout. Just something a Rothwell that doesn't make me a believer.

I'm with you. Rothwell hasn't fought in a while and Velasquez is really coming into his own. A year ago I think this fight would have gone the other way, but I think this is Cains time now.

I don't think Shogun will have enough gas past round 2 and its definitely going past round 2.

SPOILERS!





Shogun won that fight. That was the worst decision I've seen in a long while. The crowd knew it, Dana & Bruce Buffer knew it, and Machida knew it. Did you see Buffer look back at the card like he read it wrong?

Shogun was robbed.

Horrible decision. Shogun dominated the fight with kicks.
