Holy frick that is a fight that doesn't need to be on the main card. I see at least 3 preliminarys that should be over this.

hell yes. I forgot about this.

Why are there only 5 fights slated for 3 hours? They need to cut out some of their commercials/back stories and give us the fights we pay for imo. Actually, I think all of the fights should be shown if we pay for the card.

Stann is a former WEC champ and Soszynki has potential and is fresh of off TUF so I understand why it is on the main card. The only two on the undercard with an argument are:
-Nathan Quarry (10-3) vs. Jason MacDonald (21-11)
-Denis Kang (31-11-1) vs. Xavier Fouka-Pokum (20-9)
I could live with any of these three on the main card.
-Nathan Quarry (10-3) vs. Jason MacDonald (21-11)
-Denis Kang (31-11-1) vs. Xavier Fouka-Pokum (20-9)
I could live with any of these three on the main card.

That's how it always is. They will probably show at least 2-3 additional undercard fights on the broadcast.

dont know a bunch about UFC, but from what I've seen on Anderson Silva.....dude might be the best pound for pound out there.

Might be pushing to get the WEC guys some airtime. He and Cantwell were their champs for some time.

I like the Wimon vs Stout fight over it as well. Stann was champ of a very shitty division in WEC IMO. We'll see, I don't think he will be much in UFC, although he might take out Krystoff.

Only a couple of other guys out there in that conversation with him IMO. GSP and Fedor.

An fight with average LW's versus average LHW's, they will always go with the big boys.

which one is the Marine, stann or cantwell?
Posted on 4/15/09 at 2:03 pm to Cash
I have no idea why Leites gets this shot, but he will get punished.
Belcher really threw a wrench in the middleweight picture when he beat Kang... Kang was the guy the UFC wanted to build to fight Anderson.
And I think that Wiman-Stout fight will get airtime.... it might be the fight of the night
