    Re: UFC 89: Bisping vs. Leben & UFC 90: Silva vs. Cote

    seriously??

    I wanna see a fighter in all of the main card fights.
    I'm certain Cote is going to sleep, but that doesn't make watching the best p4p fighter in the world any less interesting ;)
    Alves vs Sanchez will be good too IMO, so long at Alves makes weight :p
    I like Tyson Griffin, I can't wait to see if he continues to improve his stand up but he's facing a better version of himself IMO.
    I like Werdum, he should crush this guy, but I still like to see him fight.
    Goran Reljic is a heck of a fighter, can't wait to see him either.
    Hopefully a couple of fights end early and we got a couple of more undercard fights shown too.
    there are loads of guys I want to see on the undercard too :D

    Re: UFC 89: Bisping vs. Leben & UFC 90: Silva vs. Cote

    Why not both?

    I download the torrents the week after. Actually, if you poke around on isohunt, there are two libraries--PRIDE FC and UFC--that have all the PPV's. Ever. Big downloads but if you can do it somewhere where your downstream isn't metered, giddy-up.

    Re: UFC 89: Bisping vs. Leben & UFC 90: Silva vs. Cote

    Holy crap, the undercard is amazing imo. These two fights I want to see badly.

    155 Lbs: Spencer 'The King' Fisher (21-4) vs Melvin 'The Young Assassin' Guillard (23-7)
    155 Lbs: Hermes Franca (18-7) vs Gleison Tibau (15-6)

    Then having Almeida (who did look lackluster against Cote, who proceeded to receive a title shot), I mean Almeida is known to be an impressive jiujitsu guy.

    Maynard also seems like a quality guy when he beat Edgar.

    Pete Sell vs. Josh Burkman, I mean I'm familiar with both of them, and neither is great, a good thing is Pete Sell is a brawler, so someone might get KOed sloppily lol. It could be exciting, but definitely not top talent lol.

    The UFC 90 card, doesn`t have the biggest names (as in past champions, or pride guys), but it definitely has a lot of talent.

    IIRC Tibau is out and will be replaced by Marcus Aurelio.

    One of the best fights from UFC 90 is off because of an injury to Thales Leites.

    Ohh, huge loss for Sanchez. If (when) Koscheck wins the fight, he gets Diego's title shot?
