UFC - Vitor makes his way back to the UFC. I'm eager to watch him fight Rich. I got my money on Vitor. Cro Cop is back, as well.

2007 just keeps getting better!
anyway, the Franklin/Vitor matchup doesn't do much for me.
Cro Cop is old, but I'm still intrigued. Would be nice to see him do something useful over here.
I've always liked Koscheck. His wrestling hasn't gotten him as far, but imo, he's still one of the guys who's really a special talent in one field. Add to that the fact that Trigg is a piece of & you have a pretty meaningless fight that I want to see. Bonus points for rear naked choke by a posse member from over the side of the octagon.
enough kampmann & griffin. hope they both go down.
I just hope Mayweather hasn't slipped. He's one of the best athletes I've ever seen and it'd be a shame to see him get sloppy. |

I hope JMM wins, but I really think Mayweather is going to win by late TKO or UD. JMM will do well in the first 4 rounds, taking advantage of Floyd's ring rust and JMM using his accuracy to win a couple close rounds. After that Floyd adjusts and we see the bigger man Floyd taking over from them on.
I do hope JMM puts on a good fight though and wins. |

Indeed. I'm glad to see Huerta back. It's been more than a year. |

going to try and switch my attention between this and metallica.
ufc is usually better with joe rogan rambles, so this card better have some ing head cracking to make up for it. |

I jus' hope this doesn't turn out to be a Pacquiao/Hatton fight, length wise. I'm paying 60 bucks (as I did with Pacquiao/Hatton) to watch this, and I hope I get my money's worth.
Still, I hope JMM wins. |
