    PVZ has proven that, limited as she is, she's tough and talented enough that she deserves her place on the roster.

    Ostovich has nothing though. She was poor on possibly the worst TUF in history.

    Still, best looking fight, probably ever, in the octagon.

    Best looking fight already happened, Paige vs. Waterson. ;)

    Moicano will officially be a backup for Holloway v Ortega, they couldn't find a suitable replacement after Bektic got injured.


    Also Anderson Silva says he was promised a title shot if he beats Israel, says that's why he took the fight.

    Watching Bobby hurting Anderson would be in nobodies interests.

    Neither Anderson or Israel would deserve a title shot after that fight. UFC idiocy special right there.

    Just realised there's two UFC's this weekend, both Friday and Saturday. I feel like that hasnt happened in a while? TUF finale Friday, Bam Bam vs JDS Saturday, not to mention Fury v Wilder. I'm going to be a sorry boy Sunday.

    Lot of people online i see thinking this is one sided for lawler. Couldn't disagree more. Terrible style matchup for lawler.

    The vast majority of what I have been from analysts is that Askren will mail the entire division

    I'd say Askren goes though him big time as well, Maia always seemed to struggle when he can't take someone down.

    It would go like the Colby fight I'd say, Askren defending and then connecting when Maia is shooting for his singles.

    The Tito - Liddell is on course to be the biggest selling non UFC mma ppv ever (not that there has been much competition). According to "sources" Tito v Dan Henderson is already being negotiated for the next one.

    Ah Christ are you serious. In a sport famous for short lived retirements, this will take the biscuit altogether. Tito retired on Saturday, today is Thursday!

    I think he "retired" after beating Chael too. The lure of money is too much, Hendo is supposed to be retired also.

    I'd happily see big Dan KO Tito.

    Wouldn't pay for it, but could watch a replay the next day.

    So that means they did, what, 450 buys?

    Over 200,000 anyway. Both Tito & Chuck said in the build up that if it got 200k then they get more ppv points so it's understandable that Tito wants to do another one.

    Is this going to become a “winner stays on” kind of thing I wonder??

    Well maybe I have been duped! It either did 25-30k or over 200k :o:p
