Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 27, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I know we've got 126 first but this one's only a few weeks away and with an intriguing main event, a sure fire all out war with Lytle/Condit, 4 Brits on the card plus some interesting stuff on the prelims (UFC debuts for Fukuda, Jewtuszko and Zhang) thought it was worth sticking up now.   MAIN CARD - (PPV/ESPN) -BJ Penn vs Jon Fitch -Michael Bisping vs Jorge Rivera -George Sotiropoulos vs Dennis Siver -Chris Lytle vs Brian Ebersole -Kyle Noke vs Chris Camozzi  PRELIMS - (Ion/ESPN) -Spencer Fisher vs Ross Pearson -Alexander Gustafsson vs James Te Huna  PRELIMS - (Facebook) -Tom Blackledge vs Anthony Perosh -Tiequan Zhang vs Jason Reinhardt  UNAIRED PRELIMS -Riki Fukuda vs Nick Ring -Mark Hunt vs Chris Tuchscherer -Maciej Jewtuszko vs Curt Warburton  Really nice card there. Can see Bisping/Rivera, Condit/Lytle and Fisher/Pearson being cracking fights. Sotiropoulos' fight is an interesting one but risky with him being close to a title shot a loss would set him back. And the main event is an interesting clash of styles.  Would rather have seen Fisher vs Pearson on the main card over the Noke fight but it's to be expected with Noke being from Oz.

Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I'm going to be there live. Can't fucking wait! Â I agree with you on pretty much everything there, even the thing about Fisher vs Pearson. Not a big Noke fan despite being an Aussie, but Sotiropoulos is the shit. Â I just pray that Fitch doesn't just lay on Penn for 3 rounds. A repeat performance of what Penn did to Matt Hughes would suit me nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METAL ON METAL Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 UFC just announced that Pearson vs Fisher will be shown live on ESPN. No idea if it is going to be on by itself or as part of an hour long Prelim special though. Â Well I'm alot happier now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladstones Bitch Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 So what time will this be showing over here then? I cant remember if it was a reasonable time for the last show or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted January 28, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 I just pray that Fitch doesn't just lay on Penn for 3 rounds. Reports are that Fitch has finally got a clue and doesn't plan on fighting like a boring twat anymore. I guess we'll see if that's true or not.

I cant remember if it was a reasonable time for the last show or not  The last one was the usual 3am start time. The show was held in the afternoon Aussie time to allow them to air it on PPV in the States. I'd imagine it'll be the same this time.  Actually I just noticed on the poster the times are all afternoon so I guess that means it will be the same as last time. So 3am for us as usual.

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 28, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 Some other posters I've stumbled across for this one    And some pretty cool fan made ones    Why are the fan made ones always better than the official ones?

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted January 28, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 Some quotes from Chris Lytle  On the contention that he's in the mix for a shot: "I would tell them if that's the case, then don't even tell me that. When they say 'whoever wins this fight gets a title shot' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Reports are that Fitch has finally got a clue and doesn't plan on fighting like a boring twat anymore. I guess we'll see if that's true or not. Overlooking his loss to GSP, Fitch hasn't lost for almost nine years. I'd say that whatever he's doing at present is working just fine for him.

Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted January 28, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 Although if GSP does go to MW the back end of this year/early next year, then Fitch has got to be up there as the new king at WW (Amongst one or two other). Â Changing his style right now might not be the best idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Except for getting a title shot, which if practically anyone else had his record would of had another one. Â So he should change his style, lose, and then... umm... not get a title shot anyways? Â Jon Fitch is winning fights and that should be enough. The fact that it isn't says more for UFC than it does about Fitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 28, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 That is a fantastic card. As is the card for 126. UFC are on a cracking little run of shows at the moment. I can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Fitch really has trouble sleeping at night because the fans think he's boring. Â This should be a good event, 126 is a cracker as well.
