7 UFC events over the next 8 weeks.............:bow: :bow:
Posted on 1/23/12 at 4:19 pm

3 of which are free for the fans (Fox, FX, and Fuel)
2 have already been completed (142 and FX1), and both were absolutely amazing. In these first 2 main events, 7 of the 9 ME bouts had finishes (with one being an exciting decision, and the other a bs DQ). What a great way to start off the new year, with the probable KO of the year (Barboza), a standing elbow KO (Denis), one of the more brutal KOs you'll ever see (Barry), Jose Aldo crowd surfing, and some amazing submissions.
I just don't see this little 7 card stretch slowing down at all, as this is only a sign of what is to come for the entire 2012 year in tUFC. There will be 32+ cards this year, and more free cards for the fans than ever. The talent pool of fighters is getting bigger and bigger, tUFC is signing more top-end prospects than ever, and they're putting on more events than ever. The future is exciting to say the least.
So to conclude, what are yall looking forward to in 2012 (or throughout this amazing 8 week stretch)? Condit/Diaz? Chael/Bisping? Bendo/Edgar? Pettis/Lauzon? I hope we get to see Anderson Silva/Chael Sonnen II in Brazil in that 90,000 capacity soccer stadium.
tUFC, Dana, Lorenzo, Frank, Joe, Joe, all the fighters, etc

As a casual fan, that is too much for me to follow. 2 events a month would be ideal but I realize that would go against the aggressive growth Dana is shooting for.

UFownstSECsince1950, I know it's the wrong board, but have you seen Warrior yet. If not, rent it. Great fight movie.

I've actually never watched the whole thing. Seen bits and pieces, but not the movie in its entirety. Posted on 1/23/12 at 7:18 pm to CunningLinguist

I'm Pumped. Was there already a thread on the ESPN hit piece they did on UFC? I just watched the full interview last night and I have so much less respect for Outside The Lines after that. That shite Cray

quote:don't get your hopes up my man.....cause I highly doubt either ever happens (especially in 2012). Neither AS nor GSP will fight until later this year, and I don't think either will fight more than once in 2012.
either a GSP/spider fight or bones jones/ spider fight.

I am super psyched for UFC on Fox card Saturday night. I dont think Davis is ready for Rashad, their wrestling is probably even and Rashads standup is definitely better. I hope Chael holds Bisping down and beats the ever living shite out of him. And I hope Damien Maia wins because he is one of my favorite fighters, but the Weidman kid has impressed me in his last couple of fights.

Yup right after I watched the conference call for this weekends card. Chael was on it where he claimed he and Anderson will never fight again, he thinks Anderson is legitimately done fighting. There was some good shite talk from Rashad to Phil Davis. Davis talks shite like a whitebread nerd. I'm pretty frickin excited about this card

I watched the Barboza fight and I've never seen anything like that.

Overexposure imo.

Overexposure imo
