right now ufc 131 is looking like a four fight main card and i do not want to see stout vs edwards move up give us a good fight i payed good money to go to this fight
So instead of two top ranked hw's fighting and another top ranked HW fighting a can, you get two top ranked hw's fighting each other and a can fighting someone more on his level.
"I paid good money for this card"
you think you have problems? I paid good money for UFC 119.

I just think it's funny that they changed the name to UFC 131: Carwin vs. Dos Santos, why isn'r Dos Santos getting his name place first? He's obviously the #1 contender, and not to mention he's the coach of the current season of The Ultimate Fighter. Dana White, change the name to UFC 131: Dos Santos vs. Carwin or we may have a riot!

easier to market and change things when its only 1 word instead of both.......and isn't carwin still ranked higher than JDS?
Ill agree with that. I like Dustin and Grispi a ton but I think that Grispi just had an off night IMO. He didn't look right out there. I think they will be a little reluctant to move Dustin vs a new comer because merger have a name to bank on. I mean Castillo, whose a stud but no world beater, beat Dustin so I don't think they can push Dustin as a prospect. Im cool with Stout vs Eves on the main card but they should probably keep them on the prelims because tha will be a great fight and may convince people to get the PPV that weren't wanting it.
I personally would love to see dave herman/ joey beltran promoted to the main card

looking it up i guess JDS is ranked top 5.......doesn't really mean he deserves it but he is above Carwin
its nice thats the only part you reply to.........hell who cares about the stuff that makes sense........or lets just have a riot about it
I say bump Stout and Edwards to the main card making it the first fight of the night and move Einemo to the prelims to face one of these guys
Ben Rothwell
Mike Russow
Jon Madsen
Mark Hunt

Where exactly would you put JDS? He only has what is probably the most impressive list at HW right now and that includes the champ.

But, enough of that, back to the topic. Yeah, Stout/Edwards should be left on the Preliminary Card to maybe promote a Free on Spike. And I think the UFC should instead fill the main card and showcase an up-and-coming featherweight who just outclassed what everyone viewed as the #1 Contender at featherweight in Josh Grispi.
A few people actually thought Grispi had what it took to take out Aldo, and since Poirier was the one to beat Grispi, why not start to build Poirier up now with a showing on a main card? Anyone agree?

Carwin vs Lesnar sold over a 1 million PPV buys. Name recognition. Kinda obvious dude.
Bump up Maia/Munoz to co-main event. Of the guys on the main card I think they deserve it most. Most likely Krzysztof/Pokrajac will get put on the main card.

Stout/Edwards is the most likely choice in my opinion
Pokrajac isn't really deserving of a PPV slot at all. KSos is a Spike guy also IMO
Uh, it's only been known for a few hours that Carwin was pulled from the Einemo fight. Be patient. UFC isn't going to just drop a fight, when they've got a full month to find a replacement.
I say they put Kenny Florian vs. Diego Nunes as the co-main because that card will have the biggest impact on the respective divisions of all of the other fights on the card. It will also be super exciting.
