AA to tool Silvia again, hopefully he'll beat him more this time round.
Tito to lay and pray on Forrest
diaz to maybe beat sherk via judges or Triangle/armbar submission
monson v cruz, wow grappling war, i think monson will take this
terrel to beat smith
parisiyan to beat thompson
not seen tanners oponent fight so cant say

finally i can watch it without having to worry about work next day!!
 
Im quite excited about the 2 main events and i'm always happy to watch Nick Diaz fight.

I hope big Tim doesn't get finished quite as quick this time, and that Forest can at least make it a close fight.

The Monson/Cruz fight should be interesting too.

Unfortunatly I still have to work the next day :(
 
Tito and Forres will be an awesome fight, I really liked Forres in The Ultimate Fighter, will be an interesting bout. People reckon Tito will win but I believe there could be an upset.

What i like about both fighters, is that they just always seem so happy to be in the ring. They really seem to just love fighting, and it comes across more than any other fighters i've seen.
 
AA for easy win also!!
Ortiz will probably win but will be close
Diaz to win also
Moonson for me also

Looking forward to this also! Should be good.
 
I can't see Arlovski having too much trouble with Sylvia, but I think Ortiz could be in for a harder fight against Griffin.

I just wish they'd cut out all the nonsense and show us the entire card, as I'd like too see Tanner.

Try and catch the american ppv if you can, the uk version is usually cut to death.
 
lol yeah it is pretty much cut out and full of trash talking and adverts. Look forward to Tito and Forrest, I dont know who will win as Tito hasnt been in the ring much and when he has that fire just isnt there ~ who knows ^^

Didnt know AA fighting, a usual 10 second knockout I guess lol
 
The last UFC on bravo was appalling, 3 hours of coverage and only 3 fights... I'm sure half of the 3 hours was adverts aswell. I hope its not like that tonight.

Looking forward to it regardless.
 
One mediocre fight in the first hour, pathetic. :mad:

Great too see Evan Tanner back to winning ways.

Forrest Griffin is mad, after taking a bit of a beating in the first round, Ortiz looked as if he ran out of steam after that and Forrest gained confidence and won the fight in my opinion, but Ortiz won by a split decision, with one judge giving Ortiz the second round, although Tito did nothing and clearly lost it.
 
The Tito Forrest fight... wow what a great fight. It was very close. I agree Tito clearly dominated the first round, lost the second and the third was very close but I'd just edge Tito. I personally agree with the decision but it's just a shame there wasn't another round just for entertainment sake. I must admit I thought Tito would win, but Forrest gave a great fight. Some great showmanship from both fighters, there was action throughout.
 
I can't believe the Arlovski v Sylvia fight, Andrei knocked Tim down with a peach and I thought that was it, but when he got up and caught Arlovski, finishing him off was amazing, I'm stunned. :eek:

Now to look forward to the Grace v Hughes fight. :)
 
This is why I questioned Titos abilities, he has great stamina but he somehow drained it all in the first round. He even admitted defeat when the fight was over and was surprised to win, if he kept up round 1s rage it would have been an easy fight. Either way im happy he won, he did seem to lose confidence and get a bit down, which was sad. Hope he beats Chuck :)

K this was my face irl :eek: no joke I was like that for a good minute until the replay was shown, I was surprised at Andre, he knew that once Tims up you should hold back but he went in like Tim was still dazed and I dont know why I guess it was over confidence? Either way Andres punches are insane in power, did you see how red Tims body was and they just looked like light jabs from Andre!

Surprised he didnt look too bothered but in the changing rooms I think he got a bit more upset/ it must have just hit him. A stupid decision really, tim is not special at all especially compared to Andre, I guess he just slipped up and I know he will learn from it just like his other fights.

All in all was ok, bit cheesed off at Andre. Also very chuft for tito, I hope that fire he came in in round 1 will be like that in his next fight against shamrock and he keeps up his confidence.
 
I can't for the life of me see how the first judge scored the fight 30-27 to tito... that was Forrests fight without a doubt. Shocked about the Arlovski result too, still it was much more exciting than UFC 59.
 
I think tito did win overall, the first round was brutal domination! He injured his knee so he was really lacklustre in the following two rounds. He got some good shots in 3rd round and the final takedown too edged it to tito.

Arlovski lost hat fight cause he didnt follow up. So stupid to let a guy stand up who can bang when u have a suspect chin. Did any one see AA just bemused and laughing at himself.

So wanted to see Terrel fight too shame they dont show the prelims!

PS that was UFC 59 giddy :D
