I dunno about anyone else. But to me it looks like one of the least stacked UFC fight cards I have ever seen. It's almost as if the so called "big guns" don't want to come to the UK. The main event is really the only half exciting match on the card.

The UK shows have always just been a renamed fight night.

The UK shows have always just been a renamed fight night.

Yeah, that is usually the case, but we did get Rampage vs. Henderson for the undisputed LHW title. So it's not always been all bad I guess. Hopefully the UK should get another big name match up soon, after all they were pondering Randy Couture vs. Chuck Liddell for Germany.

well, I have enjoyed Demian Maia's fights.. the guy can pull some insane submissions.

Yeah you guys had Cro Cop on that card too...

Too bad UFC 85 wasn't in the US, if it was Henderson would have won that fight... stupid boxing judge.. giving rampage the round when he shouldn't have...

Where's Cecil Peoples when you need him :angry:
