Can’t wait to see GSP in action. The Sanchez/Koscheck fight will be very interesting. And, even though I’d prefer to see Swick and Rich Franklin fight, Swick fighting Yushin Okami will be great to watch, since Yushin Okami beat Anderson Spider Silva just 1 year ago.

Looks like a great card, let’s not stink it up with the Texas Lazy Horse floping around like a beached whale. Maybe Dana can trade him back to Pride for a soda pop.

Yeah Heath looked like crap however I think Anderson Silva looked very poor against Travis Lutter

I am pumped. Got my tickets, and I’m ready for GSP fight, and the nightmare fight. Houston is officalaly on the UFC map.

RENE

gsp will crush serra no problem sanchez over koscheck hands down sanchez is the future in is divison koscheck is a good fighter will he ever be great i dont think so same goes 4 swick he will lose to okami is a very good all around fighter to much for swick to handle heath herring is better than what yall think he will go on a run just watch no chance aganist cro crop or the pitbull though

Yushin didn’t beat Anderson Silva: He lost due to disqualification… He was on his back, and Yushin was on top of him on his knees, and Anderson kicked Yushin in the head and ko’d as bad as I have ever seen! It was a bad ass move, and should have been legal. The rule is if a guy has both knees on the ground no kicking in the head… Even though Anderson Silva was on the ground on his back he was dq’d

I predict Mike Swick wins in DOMINANT fashion.

I can’t wait for the Sanchez-Koschek fight. As an athlete, Koschek is a phenom, but the top levels of MMA is for FIGHTERS, and Nightmare is a Fighter. Ask Joe Riggs whose stand-up was “2-3 years ahead” of Diego’s. But that was possibly another example of UFC recommended smack talk in hopes of hyping a fight, even a SPIKE freebie. And, it seems The Natural is also falling into step with the UFC marketing machine with his recent, uncharacteristic smack talk of his “friend” Tim Sylvia. Although it’s tough to blame him for trying to jack up his take home for his final fight/fights….after years of bustin ass and seeing the newcomers getting ready to seriously cash in.

I THINK DIEGO WILL SMASH BLONDE ASS KOSCHECK……ALSO SWICK WILL TRASH YUSHIN AND SPIDER…..H ..TOWN BABY GSP IS 2 MUCH 4R SERRA….SO GSP IS GOING 2 STAY CHAMP TILL NIGHTMARE COMES THROUGH LIKE THE CUCUBEAR AND TAKES HIS BELT 4REALZZZZZZZZ…

OH BRANDON VERA IS NEXT HW.CHAMP….IM TELLING U!!

I JUST BOUGHT MY TICKETS…..THIS IS GONNA BE MY FIRST LIVE EVENT I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE COULD TELL ME WHETHER OR NOT I NEED TICKETS FOR THE WEIGH-IN TO?

BETHRM-

Weigh-in shows are traditionally free and open to the public — I don’t see the UFC reversing course in the next few months. If anything changes we’ll let you know. Congrats on this tix — the event is shaping up nicely.

At the ufc 67 ppv party someone asked how Evander Holyfield would do against a fight with the Iceman, Ufc Gloves but just boxing. I was wondering what my fellow ufc’ers would say about that matchup….

I do not understand the rematch w/ Sanchez and Koscheck. In my book it should be Sanchez and Hughes, Koscheck and Parysian. Judo vs. big headed Wrestler, and Up-n-comming phenom against a possibly maxed out Hughes. These matchups would seem to put them in their place. Swick and Okami is good, after that Swick and Mcdonald should fight and the winner fight Silva. That would give Mcdonald good experience before he defeats Silva!!

mcdonald is a joke. he beat overrated leben and more overrated short fuse. who cares? lutter could beat him.

as for silva looking bad against lutter… i dont think so. are yall forgetting that he beat lutter at lutters game? sure the take downs were a little too easy, but look at the result.

Hell yeah !! Just got my tickets last night, I’d like to start early and Welcome all UFC MMA fighters/Camps/Fans to HTOWN, and where the Hell is the after parties??? We have one of the nicest Night life’s.

Holyfield hands down. Boxers do two thins, strike, and strike defense. They spend zero time on the other aspects relative to MMA. So, when it’s all said and done, the more practice, the more better.

Its all a conspiracy they will give macdonald a fight vs silva soon, so canadians will slowly take over…

Where is the weigh ins going to be and what is the date for them. Can any one go to them?

we’ve been looking around to see where the weigh-ins are going to take place, but haven’t found anything yet??
