press conference also nice
I'd gladly take up that offer and pitch in for gas, but I have to change plane tickets to see my gf this month and that's not gonna be cheap - otherwise I'd probably quit my job to make the fights this weekend
MAIN CARD
Champ Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard (for lightweight le)
- I hate Maynard being such a bully for such a small dude, I hope Frankie continues picking him apart like in the last fight. This ends in decision for Frankie, but much less controversial.
Champ Jose Aldo vs. Kenny Florian (for featherweight le)
- Kenny will be too weak from the cut to withstand the early offensive onslaught. The only thing he'll have to his advantage is height/reach, but Aldo is too quick and won't get caught in a submission. Aldo by TKO.
Chael Sonnen vs. Brian Stann
- Sonnen's gameplan is easy to identify, but nearly impossible to stop. If this one gets stopped, it's because of a vicious knee Stann plants at the start of a round. Sonnen via UD.
Melvin Guillard vs. Joe Lauzon
- Joe's a good martial artist, but he always looks great against dudes that like to brawl because he's well-rounded enough to throwdown then execute his own gameplan. I see him getting the submission victory and the Guillard hype train finally getting derailed.
PRELIMINARY CARD
Anthony Pettis vs. Jeremy Stephens
- Must-win for Pettis, basically.
press conference also nice

There are few episodes
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view)
Champ Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard (for lightweight le)
Bigger stronger wrestler that have record edge over the champ. Pissed off and concentrated a lot. very y with a big ego ready to smash a smaller opponent.
He was waiting for that fight and as he says he would fight Edgar a 100 times to prove he is better then him on every single occasion.
I think Gray is gonna wrestle more and put a smaller Frankie on his back and bully him on the ground. He has a great power and can knock Frankie out. I think he is a favorite to win this fight but I also think Frankie can outsmart Maynard and he will be able to defend takedowns almost as good as previous time and get back from his back.
He has a better standup and he can go for full 5 rounds at the same intensity and pace.
On the other hand there is this bully who is also committed to training and nothing else.
Frankie vs Gray II is one of my favorite fights so I'm extremely excited they are gonna fight one more time.
I'm ready to watch the best card of the year!
Champ Jose Aldo vs. Kenny Florian (for featherweight le)
As much as I like Kenny I don't think he has the strength to go along with Aldos. Also dynamics speed and power and versatility that champ do have gonna cause massive problems for Florian.
I see this ending in 3rd or 4th round and kenny really beat up
Chael Sonnen vs. Brian Stann
Tough
Is all you can say about this fight. Both men are absolutely tough personas and tough fighters. To me it's also a tough matchup to predict.
Stann has a goal to be a champ and he is all pro. That mean he has got everything set. Training , diet, gameplan, discipline and best 'school' /jacksons gym/ .
He can end that night soon. KO power on both hands, legs and knees that chael needs to look out.
I wonder how long before Sonnen shoot for a takedown he is gonna stand with Brian who will probably be able to stuff some of them. He is strong as a horse and he is gonna use it.
I really believe Brian is a top4 guy in the division at the moment.
TBH I'd rather Sonnen win that fight that's why I'm picking him. I do not mind Stann to win this and get a le shot. I want to see Jacksons gameplan for Silva.
First though I want Sonnen vs Silva II
Classic
Sonnen must be able to hold Stann down. If he is not gonna be successful he is gonna lose. Brian stand up is way better, he is quicker and can do a lot of damage.
Melvin Guillard vs. Joe Lauzon
The way Melvin fights he is screaming to get a le shot
I want that y SOTB to be submitted
Leonard Garcia vs. Nam Phan
Can go either way
Garcia needs to get his shh together
PRELIMINARY CARD ( e TV)
Demian Maia vs. Jorge Santiago
Okay Demian. It's time to put all the skills together.
I want to see g8 ground battle
Anthony Pettis vs. Jeremy Stephens
I really believe Pettis gonna destroy Jeremy
It can be 1stR stoppage or early 1st if tko
This card is so awesome that I may consider to watch the facebook fights.
And basically give out a night ..
Nope - I need to go to work on Sunday so watching only main card will give me approx 3-4 h of much needed lately sleep

It seems that this card is not that interesting.
This forum is falling
And wow - Sonnen looked really mean out there.
Drained but mean
Brian will be fast with his elbows knees and hands. Even on the bottom Sonnen must be aware of the elbows and subs.
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view)
Champ Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard (for lightweight le)
Gray is Frankie's hardest fight but he'll get through this with the belt again i believe. He just has too much heart for Gray. Frankie is so hard to put away and is gonna keep coming and coming for all 5 rds. I expect this too go all 5 again and Frankie will win a more clear cut decision like 49-46. Frankie will mix it up with boxing, kicks, wrestling and pace. Go get em Frankie..
Champ Jose Aldo vs. Kenny Florian (for featherweight le)
Final desperate attempt for Kenny to wear UFC gold, not gonna happen. One has to wonder if being Dana's buddy gets him so many le shots.. Aldo will win a lopsided decision or put Kenny away with strikes late..
Chael Sonnen vs. Brian Stann
I expect Sonnen to be rusty but deadly focused. Sonnen feels he is destined to get another shot at Silva and that le. Sonnen will win IMO a UD with his classic takedown and GNP. Stann is not a murderer off his back and Sonnen will grind him out..
Melvin Guillard vs. Joe Lauzon
Melvin is getting better with every fight and finally coming into his own..
Leonard Garcia vs. Nam Phan

Pettis has definitely improved his wrestling for this fight
somewhat jokingly but I was actually thinking of changing my pick of the Louzon Guillard fight because Guillard trained with Rashad for this fight...
Sonnen, please please lets hope you got your HRT papers turned in on time...
Sonnen wins by submission
Dominated Stann completely..
Sonnen is awesome....
And he's calling Silva out right now..
Sonnen said
"Superbowl weekend i win you leave the division, you win i leave the UFC forever"
this is real time: I was talking with Strosfan during the fight:
that was during 1st round...(9:01:31 PM) grohmc: sonnen should work on a arm triangle
(9:01:39 PM) grohmc: always having that top position
awesome how Sonnen turned it into a WWF Stipulation Match
Sonnen looked awesome.. although he was probably juiced up again.. we will see.
HRT isn't juice
Yea.. but both artificially increase your testosterone so they have their similarities. Both are cheating if you go over the testosterone limit.
Aldo by decision in a pretty un-eventful fight..
who do you think gets le fight next for LW
Chael's commission problems hopefully are over.
You mean FW?
