Still might, Alves is still awaiting medical clearance after his scare at UFC 111. If he gets cleared the fight could still happen and Tyson Griffin vs Evan Dunham would drop to the prelims.

World's worst kept secret!

That's a seriously weak card, no? First UFC in a long while that I would have no interest in watching.

UFC seem to think the main event will carry it.

Some times these turn out to be the best cards, Bj and Silva on the same card looked amazing and turned out to be a very very mediocre at best event.

It was more to do with dana's ability to turn on a dime and expect people to forget what he said yesterday, cause he said something new today

Haven't missed one since Ortiz Tanner at 30 but this one looks boring.
Rich is comin in with two losses and a dodgy decision, Chuck with a couple of losses. Neither are gonna challenge at any weight, whats the point?
That said, Chuck v Vander is one of the best of all time, so could be a classic. Doubt too many will pay for it PPV though.

You can say that about well over half of the entire roster.I dont expect them to be challenging anytime soon but they do both put up good fights which is what im looking forward to. I guarantee it'll get plenty of PPV buys on name recognition alone

Well at least there will be no dancing :pac:

Dana aid on his twitter that it sold out in 30 mins anyway (probably down to loaction more then anything.Damn canadians)

sonic.trip

looks weak alright, only interested in seeing the kampmann v thiago and the main fight tbh

onlyasuggestion

i really wanna see Evan Dunham again. Reckon he's looking like a proper prospect, was really impressed in his last two fights

Nelson v Kimbo would ****ing roole that is why

I think Carlos Condit is one of the most exciting fighters in the business. I'll tune in just to see his fight.

If anyone hasn't seen it, check out Condit V Ellenberger, think it was fight night 19. It's in my top 5 fights.
