ADIERSON SILVA!! jumping up to 205lb! As much as I love the junk yard dog. The spiders going to dominate this division. At 6.2 and walks around at 215lb is a easy fit. I don’t blame him for going up in weight……….there’s no one left in his division!

The funniest thing about this Main Event, that it is actually better than the Main Event of the last event on the East Coast, UFC 55 at Mohegan Sun. That main event was Andre Arlovski vs Paul Buentello. And what did Buentello do to earn himself a title shot? He had 2 fights in the UFC defeating Justin Eilers and Kevin Jordan.

A main event should always be for a title, with VERY few exceptions. One exception that I can think of would be Chuck/Wandi. They can have a PPV with that being the only fight, and every mma fan would still order it. Right now, I really can’t think of another exception, unless Randy and Fedor were to fight and it wasnt for a belt… The UFC has 5 weight classes. They have about 1 PPV per month. I don’t understand why they can’t have 1 belt defended at each event. If they rotated, then the champ would have to defend once every 5 months, which is 2 times a year, 3 occasionally.

This is the weakest main event since Tito and Rahsad.

I think many people have lost sight with what is really important in this sport. Everyone is focused on who’s fighting rather than weather or not it will be a good fight. Granted neither Evans nor Bisbing diserves a title shot but this fight has the makings of a war as do many of the undercard bouts including Ryo Chonan, one of the 4 men to beat Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva with an unreal flying scissor into a heal hook check it out @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2XRZsNQb7U, vs Karo Parysian. I’d rather see an exiting fight between guys I’ve never heard of than see than watch a boring fight with super stars. True it’s fun to see big name guys but don’t wine when you don’t.

[quote comment="188850"]just not worth the 200, 300 or 500 that it will cost for decent seats.
It went from BJ Penn for LW title, to Hendo vs Ortiz, and then they came up with Evans vs Bisping.

for a return to NJ (NorthEast Coast)you would think they would at least have one headliner. They supposedly fought for 2 years to get the show here and this is what we get. I guess they dont really want to come back.

At least Bisping might get his ass whooped at airport for talkin smack.[/quote]

actually i heard it was Evand Ortiz 2 like 2 months ago
