Wow you left off the Jesse "Water" Bongfeldt vs. Chris "The All American" Weidman for UFC131

People should keep in mind that just because a card is stacked doesn't necessarily mean it will deliver. I voted for Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum. Looking at the fighters now, I just don't see a boring fight. The only fight that could be lackluster would be Cormier vs. Shane del. The Overeem brothers are always fun to watch. Fabricio is fun to watch as are Rogers and Barnett. This card should be amazing.

Its either 130 or 132... I don't understand how anyone can pick anything different.. I really don't.

I think 132 will be awesome...133 is starting to look pretty good also. Evans/Davis, Belfort/Sexyama, Franklin/Lil' Nog, Rivera/Sakara....looks pretty good.

130 would have run away with it before rampage vs thiago silva was changed to rampage/hammil but thanks to that 132 takes the lead in my book
lookin forward to A) condit/stun gun and B) tito getting his overdue and well deserved pink slip

I am most looking forward to UFC 130 and Overeem vs Werdum cards.

If 131 had a decent Co Main then that would be my pick
but I took 130
When Alves and Torres are our free prelims then you know the card is insane
plus most of those fights are going to be standup battles

I voted for Werdum vs Overeem as well!
heres why
I. Ive been waiting years to see Overeem fight this sorta comp.
2. Ive beeen waiting since the Fedor fight to see Werdum fight again
Can Werdum stand a chance against Overeems striking if he couldn't even fair with Dos Santos? Werdum's striking has gotten better since that fight but has it got good enough though?
Can Overeem keep it standing and if it does goes to the ground is that so bad with Overeems "great guillotine" and "ADCC skillzz"????
Overeem has ended all of his heavyweight fights in the first round, Werdum just ended Fedor in like 30 seconds.
3. Brett Rogers Is always in exciting fights. Was his losses due to fighting two of the greatest HW's?
4. Josh Barnett Ive been waiting a long time to see him fight again. Will he fight again??? I hope!!! Will the ring rust and no steroids have affected him? We will see!
Griggs
Cormier
Shane
Are all alternatives to this tournamnet and solid up and comers I want to see how they fare against fighting each other!! it will say a lot about their future.
Ok all of that was a lie heres the real reason Im waiting for that card.

after watching edgar get the crap beat out of him, and coming back strong, i seriously cant wait for 130, that fight alone is good enough for me, big fan of edgar, much respect, they just had to make it a dream with everyone else, cant wait to see randy again, i want to be there for possibly his last fight, hopefully not, unless he gets hurt

132 is rediculous from top to bottom.
130 is a VERY close 2nd.

You guys are seriously overlooking the Strikeforce card.
OVEREEM! - werdum
Barnett! - rogers
Those fights are huge ( I know barnett wins but seeing him compete in a top promotion again is a big event).
Two more Heavyweight fights.
Cormier - Del rosario
The best prospects in strikeforce. Should be awesome fight unless cormier does some of that wrestling A.K.A. is known for.
Chad griggs - Overeem - That fight might be one of the most exciting on the entire list of fights.
Gina Carano - not really into women fighting.
This card is going to be a bomb! OVEREEM!!! AGAINST A TOP 10 guy!!! :!: :!: :!:

Strikeforce may be a lesser level of competition in some peoples eyes but Its been a long time since I have been bored by one of their cards. I cant wait.
