It's crazy that there is just now a discussion thread for this card. I understand that there have been a lot of injuries, but this card seems to have been pulled into a black hole and isn't getting very much exposure. May be the first card in years that I don't buy. Since that is the case and with my luck, it will probably be the best card of the year.

Seriously, every main card fight has great potential and I wont have the cash for this card having just spent 55$ on 148. The FX prelims are gonna be great too, Mcgee and Ring are exciting fighters.

I agree. I think there is a lot of potential for the fights to be good, I just may have to settle for the prelims. Either way, I'm pretty excited and hope Faber is on the receiving end of an epic beating.

It's get the feelin that the UFC is trying to give Faber a belt. Basically like giving him as many chances as it takes to be champ again. I'm pretty sure that if he wins and the. Fights Cruz and loses again, he will fight for the title again sooner rather than later. Would like to see two dudes throws own though, but I think Faber will just try and wrassle Barao

If he deserves the Benefit of the doubt, might as well strip Cruz and just give Faber the belt because chances are Dominic won't/can't beat Faber twice in a row, right?

Name value isn't all that high on this card, but I'm still pumped for this card.

He's definitely got a shot, especially if he can keep it standing. Ebersole has shown plenty of holes on his feet.

Hector Lombard

Hope Lombard gets a finish/dominant victory so he gets the title shot and weidman can get some more experience before he fights anderson

I don't see why most voters picked Faber.
The thing about Barão is that all is he does is win win win, no matter what.
