    I really hope the Dan Miller vs Rosholt fight makes the broadcast.

    Cain Velasquez should end the fight early and allow for that :D

    of course young Dennis is a strong up and comer, but I think he's in trouble for his first UFC fight.

    My two personal favorite fighters - being a Boston guy - are Lauzon and Florian, so I'm pretty pumped to see J-Lau fight this weekend.

    LMFAO they are talking about the male anatomy and how mother nature designed it and how it sucks for low blows. I fucking love these guys.

    Anthony Johnson is a fucking beast. He is only 24. That is fucking scary.

    I've never understood how these DEA cop shows work, Isn't it dangerous for the guy and his family if all the drug dealers know hes a DEA officer.

    Yeah, I don't get that. My dad is a DEA agent and he thinks this show is a fucking joke.

    :lol: @ Joe Rogan interviewing a DEA Agent.

    You can't have your nuts at your body temperature, it's too hot. They need to be cooler. The human body is a very imperfect machine, though.

    Good night of fights. Everyone hates Josh Neer but I love the guy. He fought well.

    Cain Velasquez is a beast but he is fighting chumps. His next bout needs to be against a known opponent. Heath Herring, maybe?

    Also, Johnson looks good against mediocre fighters. Don't forget he was subbed by Rich Clementi--fighting a weight class above his normal weight to boot. He needs to fight someone with takedowns and submissions so we can see if he has advanced his ground game as much as his kicking.
