I'm sorry, but to me, that is anything but a "great card"... There is only one fight that i remotely care about. The rest would make for some good free "Fight Night Live" fights.

I definitely don't agree. Liddell, Rampage, Burkman, Parisyan, Jardine, Starnes, Leben. Lots of exciting fighters. There might be some fireworks specially with the main event.

Decent card headlined by great main event. Some of the undercards may turn out to be worthwhile but on face value right now, just a decent card.

Wow. Never saw that coming (neither did Chuck). A wild right lands right on the button. Crazy.

Wow indeed... it certainly did turn out to be a good card! But one that SUCKED for me at the same time. Keith Jardine getting his ass kicked?? Damn it. Liddell getting KTFO??? Damn it! Burkman losing, Damn it!

But because of some quick finishes, we got to see 7 fights.

Now what happens in the light heavy division? Winner of Ortiz/Evans next in line for a title shot? Liddell get a re-match for his title?

No clue who Henderson can fight. Thats probably why they won't make him fight anyone. I don't think they want Henderson vs. Bisping just yet... maybe Houston Alexander?

Seems to be updated as of today too. But Jardine behind seems odd to me, seeing as how their fight went.

Top Fighter Standings - TUF - UFC - PRIDE - MMA - Rankings

Can Couture still make 205? If so, that would be a cool fight to see. Problem is the old man would have to fight to often to defend two belts.

hmmmm...maybe they feel everyone loses so a loss won't completely knock you off the list...????

really noone to fight for jackson except evans or tito...but tito got his ass handed to him by chuck..is he really worthy???


if he wins against gonzaga, he should go for it...if he gets it, retire as the champ of 2 divisions...
