What an awesome free card, from top to bottom
Who do y'all think the winner of Browne/Silva gets? Struve? Werdum? Hunt? Mir?
Glad this card is on Friday....hopefully more people will watch it b/c of football season (maybe tUFC is learning)
Still don't know why they're putting this on basically 3 different channels. I get that they're trying to promote FuelTV, but it's just too confusing for most of us (maybe tUFC isn't learning)





Main Card (FX)
Heavyweight: Travis Browne vs. Antonio Silva
Welterweight: Jake Ellenberger vs. Jay Hieron
Welterweight: Josh Neer vs. Justin Edwards
Flyweight: John Dodson vs. Jussier da Silva


Preliminary Card (Fuel TV)
Lightweight: Jeremy Stephens vs. Yves Edwards
Lightweight: Michael Johnson vs. Danny Castillo
Lightweight: Dennis Hallman vs. Thiago Tavares
Lightweight: Jacob Volkmann vs. Shane Roller
Featherweight: Bart Palaszewski vs. Diego Nunes
Flyweight: Darren Uyenoyama vs. Phil Harris


Preliminary Card (Facebook)
Lightweight: Carlo Prater vs. Marcus LeVesseur
Welterweight: Aaron Simpson vs. Mike Pierce

Pierce, while boring, gets the shaft here on card placement.

Prelims are bomb.

Winner of the main vs. Struve.

Browne vs. Struve.

I'm guessing this is good

Stephens/Edwards should be FOTN. Really looking forward to all these fights though. Castillo/Johnson should be great. Ellenberger/Hieron. etc

I'm guessing the winner of the Dodson flyweight fight gets the title shot? Don't really know much about this division yet.....

There is still too many damn cards for the casual fan to follow. UFC needs to address that (and this goes into the injury problem too).

Solid card from top to bottom. I'm not real crazy and about Struve taking on the winner of this match. I'd like to see him against the loser. Either of them I believe could KO Struve.

The loser? No way man, gotta disagree on that. Struve is now a borderline top10 HW in the world (same with Bigfoot). Both are currently ranked higher than Browne.

Struve vs. Browne would be awesome. He wouldn't have the height/reach advantage like he did over Miocic. Struve vs. Werdum would also be pretty sweet with their bjj skills. Really liking the depth of the HW division right now.....

Man I like Struve, I just think he is another year away from really competing with the big boys. I'd like to see him add some more weight.

I think he is just outside the top 15.

Struve has already lost to Browne once via KO.

I have to agree this is an excellent card! Really looking forward to Bigfoot getting his arse handed to him. I think the Browne should pair up against Mir for his next fight.

On a side note, Matt Mitrone turned down the fight with DC. I can not say I am surprised by this turn of events. I can only wish and dream, but I would love to see That Big Useless French frick Cheick Kongo get in the octagon with DC.

Thats my Rant for the day. Everyone have a great day!

I forget that Struve has fought everyone in the HW division except some of the big dogs.

Pretty sure the official HW gatekeeper is Kongo now. Lets do that.
