The gas tank for the main event is going to be about 45 seconds. After that, I expect it to turn into a drunken bar room brawl.
Their combined age exceeds that of Coleman/Couture and that's assuming Slice is actually 41 which seems dubious to me.
Ken isn't big enough to fight at heavyweight but he's doing it anyway. Weigh-in results via MMA Junkie...

He's living lean. He's at the gym all day and night since he's living in an RV in the parking lot. I hope he gets a huge payday tonight.
If Lashley wins he's 10-2 and has name recognition from his WWE days. Depending on his contract status too of course, does the UFC go after Lashley if he's a free agent or has an out clause in his contract? As I said in the other thread, the UFC's HW division is thin on prospects or title contenders.

UFC might pay him more than Bellator, but they would make him quit pro wrasslin'. I suspect that is where he makes most of his money.
Joe Rogan and others online are saying this fight was fixed. Sadly it's not the first time Ken's put on such a poor performance that people thought he took a dive (see Franklin vs. Shamrock).
