    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Re: UFC 149: Aldo vs. Koch Terrible string of injuries for UFC, surely this is the end of it, they need a turn of luck. Even with the injuries I still think that this is a decent card the three fights remaining all interest me. The fight I am most looking forward to is the Bisping fight.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    The payouts for the fighters are so far out of whack. How so many can get paid so little when they only fight 3/4/5 times a year is ridiculous especially since they then have to pay their manager and trainer etc. When guys fight for UFC it should be a full time job and they shouldn't have to...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    This PPV was off the charts awesome, one of my favourite PPV's in quite some time. To start with the prelims were really good other than Miller not doing anything and Hardy keeping his job :( Struve winning easily by submission was awesome, I think I predicted a second round submission win for...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Yeah I am still pumped as well, yes the card got a bit weaker but it is still strong and there are some quality fights on the prelims as well. Who doesn't want to see five heavyweight fights on a main card, should produce plenty of finishes. I still have my fingers crossed that Dan Hardy's fight...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Does FX have a much smaller reach than Spike TV? Seems like they can only get half as many viewers on FX but is that due to the size of the channel or simply because of who has been involved in the specials?

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Sucks for Gonzaga. He had the dream run to get back on the main card of a massive PPV and then injury struck him down. Good opportunity for Dave Herman but I think that Roy Nelson should be able to beat him.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    It has turned into a pretty good card, I was worried that it was going to be poor but they kept adding extra fights to make it interesting. The fight that I am most looking forward to is Bisping vs. Boetsch. I really want Bisping to win and then to get a title shot that he has worked hard for.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    The whole card does look awesome and I hope that they will show some of the Facebook prelims on tv if them have time. I really want to see Dan Hardy's fight just to see if he can keep his job with UFC. Won't do my predictions yet as too many things can change in a month so we never know if the...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    I agree with you that UFC should use FuelTV for a weekly news show and Best of shows rather than running events on there. It is a good poster, I always laugh when I see his moustache definitely makes him stand out as a fighter. I will probably check this card out but it is so long away I don't...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    UFC haven't done too badly out of a bad situation. Cain vs. Bigfoot is a good option and will be a good way for Cain to get back on track or it will be a fantastic way for Bigfoot to start his UFC career. Gonzaga must be loving that he is back with UFC and has made it back onto a maincard...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    To me Mark Hunt getting the title shot would be a good underdog story but not the best result. I can understand that Dana doesn't want to break up the big number one contenders fight but they do need to find a big opponent for JDS. Hopefully they can get someone who isn't on the card to sign on...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Overeem is an idiot if he is on drugs. Why did he think that he could get away with it? Will Dana fire him? Ruins the mainevent but I wouldn't mind Mir getting a title shot in place of Overeem.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Found this funny from Miller, he admits that he gasses and so his gameplan is to finish it early.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    I will check it out to see what it was like but I don't really want this division to suceed because it is a waste of space. They are running too many events now, although they aren't doing a good job of spreading them out, and because of this we are only getting a couple of quality fights per...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Not a fan of this Flyweight division so already the mainevent is putting me off this card. I still can't understand why UFC keep adding more and more smaller divisions, what is the point in having 4 divisions covered by 30 pounds?

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Moving to the prelims is what Hardy deserves. He has lost so many times that fans only want to watch him to see him get KOd. Hopefully this will be it for him.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    ^I don't think he had a choice about going through TUF, Dana would have known that he wanted to sign but WWE wanted to see if he was the real deal first by running him through the system. With regards to Miller I hope for his sake that he puts in a better performance otherwise he is out of...

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    Mir is certainly value at that price, he has looked much better in recent fights and he will be a challenge for Velasquez. I was checking the odds before and Dos Santos is starting favourite as well although he isn't as clear a favourite as Velasquez.

    UFC 146: Dos Santos vs. Mir

    I was happy when the mainevent was the only match announced for this card, now reading that two other big heavyweight matches have been announced I am very happy with this card. Stacked card and I can't wait to see these two face off. I actually don't mind who wins the fight since I like both of...
