I generally don't, but I like him. Silva i always talking about respect, but he seems to do this shite alot. I hope he gets knocked the frick out. I really think he's sensitive about being called ugly

I will always look at this as just pumping the fight up for the fans. It is when a guy is still being a total dick after the fight that will bother me. I don't know if Wandy does this or not, in everything I have seen about him, he seemed pretty respectful

Well unfortunately for him, UFC allows ground and pound. I'm starting to lean more and more towards Jackson. He is a much better fighter than he was in the 1st two, and I think the UFC rules work in his favor. He was handeling Wandy in their first fight before being stood up and eventually clinched up. I don't think Wandy is strong enough, but anything can happen.

No soccer kicks probably hurts Wandy as well in this one. Honestly if Page hadn't of just gone through all that crazy shite, I probably would lean his way as well. It is a tough call, I'm sticking with Silva though.

I like a lot of them as well these days. I usually am not that big of a Wandy fan, but I will be rooting for him tonight. Big Nog has really won me over with this season's TUF. He seems like a really good guy......have to root for someone like that. (especially since Mir comes off as such a dick)

I'm a little pissed that the Okami/Lister fight isn't on the main card. I understand they want to put pretty boy Dollaway on to pimp their Ultimate fighter series, but the Okami/Lister fight is a great matchup. I hope they have time to air it between other fights.

Rashad Evans could be holding the lhw belt after tonight. Just seems strange to me.

That's the way I see it also. I really like both of those fighters and thier styles are very compelling for an interesting fight. I hope it proves to be.

Pretty much guaranteed the Lister vs Okami fight will end up getting aired IMO. I've only seen one UFC PPV where they didn't get to any of the undercards.

Page/Silva is easily the fight of the year, IMO. I can see someone saying Silva Lidell, but I don't and never have GAF about Lidell, so this is it for me.

two title fights may preclude that due to timing. Maybe a quick KO in the Rampage/Silva fight will help. I still cant' forget seeing Jardine getting choked/KO'd by Wandy and laying there for about 10 minutes. I don't think Rampage used that one to prepare.

Same here, but I've never been a huge Mir fan. I've read many times how guys from that gym in Vegas are cocky assholes. Plus, his cardio is still up for debate IMO.

I wasn't a fan of Wandy when he was in Pride. But the UFC has done a great job of putting him out to the fans. I actually rooted for him in the Liddell fight. I think he will maul Rampage one more time. I'm still not convinced Rampage has his head in the fight. One knee to the kisser and Rampage folds.
