Lol and these are big name fighters pulling out too... LOL Dana should consider stacking cards cause he can't ppv with fx cards lol

 

[puppetmaster]

I saw that Matyushenko may be out of 152 vs Hammil.

They better not move Hammil to brazil to fight Glover. That shyt isn't co main event worthy.

Yep. He's out. Roger Hollett back in





This company has the worst luck these days




No he doesn't deserve it at all, but I can't imagine Urijah Faber has let himself fall out of shape. Why not just do him vs Frankie for now





-P-

Sonnen/Machida has my interest. What a messy 2012 these guys have had I tell you. Makes it hard to get excited about a potential fight until literally they lock the cage door

This has just been a complete cluster fukk breh. Sonnen/Machida has a lot of potential. I was amped about the Fox card in December, but the way things are going, you just know something is gonna get fukked up.

 

[TRIPLE M]

I was really looking forward to rampage and aldo vs Edgar in brazil

 

[jackswstd]

MOTHERfukkER! That's it I'm not gonna get hype about UFC fights until the day of from now on.

Chael ain't fighting nobody in Brazil....there's a reason 148 was in Vegas.



Who's left on this card? They need to just put 1 of the 3 big fights from 152 as the main event on 153, IMO.

Wow

The funny thing is this use to be a problem the lesser orgs had.Ufc was such a well oiled machine until 2011.I am still waiting to see the benefits of the fox deal

these ufc guys are seriously over training

nah its not that they are over training, they dont know how to train

 

[The Infamous]

I think it's a mix of what you and Fatal said. Plus, the new insurance policy has a lot to do with the injuries. Fighters are much more willing to pull out of fights now.

 

[iMajor]

Yeah that fox deal is UFC has like 4 different avenues between Xbox, fueltv, fx and fox and they can only say the ultimate fighter is the only good thing going for them. And I don't think casual fans watch it anymore. I lost interest for sure when it was Dan Henderson vs bisping even though the fight was entertaining as hell.

UFC stretched themselves too thin they should put ultimate fighter on fox cause all fox has is house and random sht

 

[Change]

Big Nog VS Dave Herman has been added to the card. It will headline if nothing else can be made.
