[Slim]

Meathead needs to win this fight. He was doin pretty good and then he just did nothing against Kongo. And Silva... after gettin destroyed by Cain has a lot to do to earn his spot now.

Not bad at all. Not bad at all. And it is on FX which is good for me.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Card updated with a few fights from UFC 151 moving over to this card. Honestly for a free show it isn't that bad of a line up.

 

[Troy]

Great opportunity for Travis Browne to go against a top fighter and to mainevent a show. He has made steady progression in his time in UFC and his submission finish against Griggs was awesome. Will be a good battle against Bigfoot who will want to make a better impression after a poor first showing, albeit against a fantastic opponent. Good card overall.

Dennis Hallman Missed Weight by 7 Pounds, and was too drained to lose any more weight so they just cancelled his fight with Thiago Tavares.

Edit: Hallman has been released from the UFC for missing weight, this is the second fight in a row he missed weight. He and Tavares were both paid for the night though.​

 

[Slim]

Dang... Anthony Johnson missed weight how many times before he got cut? What is up with these guys being 7 pounds overweight?

 

[No More Sorrow]

This was another alright show, I missed some of this but i seen the important fights.

Jeremy Stephens was arrested before his fight and it ended up being cancelled. Silva/Struve is likely the next fight up for those two.

 

[The Cork]

Didn't see this but it sounds a mess.

Dodson is DMJ's first title defence, shouldn't have too much trouble there IMO.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Yeah it was a mess, two fights cancelled, Hallman released and Stephens arrested and still in jail for an assault charge all in two days.

Some of the fights that did happen were pretty good though.

UFC 153 next weekend.
