Tito's quick finish of Bader left me wanting to see more. Does Tito really still have "it" after so many "it-less" fights? Will Bader get any higher on the list of people waiting to be executed by Jones?
Will Wandy follow Chucks footsteps and stanky leg his way through a handful more fights or will he smile with one less tooth and wave goodbye like Randy? Either way, I see him getting in the octogon at least one more time.
Leben vs Stan 2
Will we be watching a gsp/condit primetime this time next year? I think so.
Put Melvin on the damn main card already. Let that peacock fly!

we won't know about tito until he fights again. this might've been a fluke.
wandy is 1-1 as a mw. many would've been dropped from those shots. i think he deserves one more fight. should he get viciously ko'ed or get his butt whooped in his next fight, then perhaps retiring might make sense. he's already a legend and one of the all-time greats in the sport. nothing left to prove.
that rematch makes no sense. stann beat him already. stann should be matched up against a top contender.
i think condit has made a great case. i guess one obstacle is fitch-penn 2 (which i'm not a fan of). i'd rather see condit vs. penn at this point. fitch seems to have a long road of recovery still (end of this year) so we'll leave him out of the equation for now.
whoops! forgot to comment on guillard. he looked awesome. i think he should fight once more before his title shot. i think miller is ahead in the pecking order. seems like they wanna do siver vs. guillard again. i don't see why, but if mg is good with it, then make it happen.

I really think Wandy should get one more, Bisping is no pushover and Wandy beat him.
Give him Akiyama if he loses to Vitor in Japan.

stan vs munoz title elimanator
stan vs sonnen is quite marketable but sonnen's coming off a loss

Yikes, he beats a top MW contender a year ago and loses to an improved Leben after a long layoff and we're suddenly calling out for his retirement? He may not win a title but he's still a huge draw and great gatekeeper for a weaker division. Wandy/Belfort rematch still needs to happen.

I don't think he should retire and I should have clarrified that. I was just playing off all the sudden retirement talk. People have said it time and time again and i'll say it once more, we gotta get a weight class between 185 and 205. I don't think Silva looks very healthy at 185. Not saying he looks bad, but I think he would benefit by not having to cut so much weight.
I just don't see how he's gonna excel in either 185 or 205. Yeh he can bring in some chedda and test some new fighters, but at what cost....

I had a four fight parlay in which I picked Guillard, Condit, Siver and Bader. Ironically, the Tito vs. Bader fight was the one I was most confident in. I guess I got what I deserved with that one.
G-Sot is my favorite fighter in the lightweight division, and his KO loss sets him back (I believe), and I think it will be a long road back to contention for him.
Despite losing my parlay, seeing Sotiropolous and Wandy lose, I loved the card overall. I found almost every fight very exciting, even the ones that didn't go the way I wanted.

Neither Stann nor Munoz are close to ready for AS

GSot is never getting close to the title. He was UFC hype. He is 34 years old.

I don't think anybody is really in line yet
If Silva beats Okami then I think he should fight GSP because the MW division needs a little bit of time to have another contender stand out and be deserving of a shot

LOL I feel your pain man.... I had a 6 fight parlay with Bader on it (Condit, Siver, Leben, Cruz, Melvin). $5 to win $225. I thought Bader at -500 was a complete lock. All because Tito decided to train his hands and Bader wasn't prepared at all.

I think he was definatley on his way, but the division is far too stacked for him to be able to make a real run now. I don't think he was UFC hype, his jiu jitsu is definatley legit, but he was not able to get Siver down, and Dos Anjos just flat KTFOed him. I was hoping to see some ground fighting between him and Rafael, but oh well.
A great card regardless.

He's not my favorite fighter or anything but 7 straight UFC wins (with 4 stops) with 4 out of 7 being notable fighters - Lauzon, Stevenson, Pellegrino, and Roop does not equal UFC hype. He just ran into two tough fights. He was just "in the mix" like 6 months and 2 fights ago dude. A few wins against quality opponents and he's right back where he was. Strange fickle fans....

great card from facebook to spike to ppv !!
faber wants a rematch naa i say wineland or bowles 2 .
kos wants leben i say no there is better for leben tho he owes him one or two. imo leben could be facing the spider again in three or four more wins .
tito getting the win is still bizarre to me so is the fact that he earned block lesnar type money but man if he stays healthy he could pull off a "randy " and get better with age but id retire right now if i was him .
i think condit is on a roll and more than who he fights its the "zone" he is in his time is now
guillard is showing great skill and power and seems to be taking out the junkie friends lol

might've seemed like Tito got brock type money to show but he said he begged to keep his job and took a paycut to prove he's not doing it for the money,so i'm guessing he took a paycut on the ppv royalty end,but that's just my guess
