Heavyweight Championship: Junior Dos Santos (c) vs. Alistair Overeem[5]
Heavyweight bout: Cain Velasquez vs. Frank Mir[5]
Heavyweight bout: Antonio Silva vs. Roy Nelson[5]
Heavyweight bout: Mark Hunt vs. Stefan Struve[5]
Heavyweight bout: Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Shane del Rosario[5]

My picks for this.

I think JDS is too fast and hits too hard for Reem, yes Reem has competed in K1 and done really well. But it has larger gloves and his peekaboo style of covering up works in K1 due to gloves but not in MMA.

Cain will keep it standing and KO Mir, he is faster and mixes it up way better than Mir.

Silva is to big for Nelson, I think he will grind a decision.

Hunt by KO.

Gonzaga should edge it.

What's everyone elses picks :)
 
Everyone watched TUF 15 ep 1 by now? What did people think? I really hate FX coverage of UFC events, it is awful. The new TUF filming format just sucks.
 
I hate the whole build up format on ep 1 anyway, all the yapping and all the "HBO" style build up, same as what they do on the main events which im not a fan of. The copy of ep 1 i have has a massive "Ultimate fighter on FX" logo right near the middle of the screen too, altho that may just be a one off.
 
yeah tuf 1 episode perhaps its just gotta start getting use to it ?

Its like when ufc got rebranded and the new rolling credits.... it just takes time I guess, episode 2 is out also of tuf.

Pretty much agree with all those picks Mark hunt is gonna have to watch out for being taken down but his base and take down defence has improved, I feel this guys chin is awesome and he will land a brutal knockout or work but theres a risk of submission here.

Nelson always has the one punch knockout and if anyone can feel that power its a recently defeated big foot so anything can happen in that fight got a feeling though nelson may take it ;)

JDS smaller mma gloves will send overeem south, and Cains wrestling and ground and pound will edge him a much needed comeback win for immediate title run.
 
Looks like the UFC is coming to Liverpool in September, for a Fuel event.... on a Wednesday night no less.

The UFC ***** in the faces of the UK fans once again.

ouch again who is gonna headline it bisping or hardy ?

watched tuf episode so spoilers ahead! and that was truly deep episode, gotta rate that guy for staying on tuf not many guys would be in the right frame of mind after that, still surprised jake shields did the same.

loved the banter between faber and cruz lol he owned him good and proper I do not think cruz was expecting it to come so soon.

But cruz is awesome also for what he done at the end of the show, but that sorta arrogance may cost him dearly I was almost laughing when faber said who wants to step up and after that knock out loss no one said a single word.... you could have had a wasp fly past them all at that moment it was so silent lol

Think were still what about 4 weeks away from the next event.........
 
omg that was hilarious I guess coming from sapp that was normal...

edit very true we get brazillian tuf and normal tuf same time... should help the ease between the super long wait.

Lets hope joe rogans hair has regrown a bit hes only got another 3.5 weeks left lol

Bisping is set to fight Boetsch in July so it won't be him.

I am interested in seeing how Bisping gets on. It will be his first fight since moving to the US full time and I wonder how that might benefit him. I mean he won't be leaving the family or travelling huge distances a week before the fight. It is probably a different set of guys he rolls with as well so he might have learnt a few more things.
