Congrats to the Nottingham man Dan ‘The Outlaw’ Hardy on getting a big knockout win over Duane Ludwig at UFC 146. Great to see him get back on track with a win in the octagon.

UFC 146 time!
Very much looking forward to this card, it’s stacked from top to bottom and I don’t see any of the Heavyweight main card fights going the distance.
The fights I’m most looking forward to seeing are Volkmann vs Sass, pretty much the whole prelim card especially Dan Hardy’s fight, and then the whole heavyweight main card culminating with Nelson vs Herman, Velasquez vs Bigfoot, and Dos Santos vs Mir.

Mainly looking forward to Dodson vs Elliot, Ferguson vs Johnson, Koscheck vs Hendricks and of course the main event of Diaz vs Miller. I’m only going to pick sides for the main event tonight and I think Diaz is going to win it.

UFC 145!
With all the build-up and back story behind this main event it’s either going to be one awesome fight or it’s going to be a huge letdown. I’m rooting for Rashad, but it’ll be tough, he’s going to have to get inside Jones’ reach to be able to win and use his wrestling/ground and pound to do it.

UFC on Fuel TV 2!
Early night of fights because it was held in Sweden rather than the States, and it was a pretty good card.
Happy to see Brits do well, with Pickett getting the win against Page, and Maguire using his ‘gypsy jiu-jitsu’ pretty well against Johnson. Bahadurzada and Stann also both had big knockout wins over Thiago and Sakara respectively.
Gustafsson looked really at ease as the hometown fighter and comfortably got the decision over Thiago Silva. I think Goldberg and Florian were hinting way too much about Gustafsson and the similarities to Jon Jones the whole fight, and I think Dana White has got it right by saying Alexander needs to fight a few more before a title shot. I however 100% agree that it would be good to see Gustafsson fight Jones soon in the future, because the reach advantage they always have against the opponents would cancel out and it would really be about skill and give both guys a good challenge.
After the mini 5/6 week break away from the UFC this has been the perfect event as a lead up to next weekend’s Jon Jones vs Rashad Evans fight.

Decided to stay up to watch the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter Live.
Definately odd to see the fights live as opposed to the whole show being pre-filmed but I think it’s going to make this one of the best seasons yet. Also can’t wait to see Faber and Cruz as coaches and the build up to their rematch.

I’m mainly watching this card just for the flyweight tournament, because I’m a big fan of the lighter weight divisions, but I am kind of looking forward to seeing Alves vs Kampmann too because it should be an exciting main event.

UFC 144!
Some amazing fighters and such a stacked card from top to bottom that there are too many too list that I am looking forward to, and it’s also good to see so many Japanese fighters in a Japanese UFC event.
As far as a prediction, I like both Edgar and Henderson and I think it will be a close fight, but I’m going with Edgar to keep his belt.

UFC 143!
When you put Diaz up against Condit you know it is going to be a good fight. The only outcomes I can possibly see is a knock out or 5 rounds of back and forth fighting. I think Diaz is going to come out the other side of this fight as the winner to set up GSP vs Diaz. I’m also rooting for Jorgensen and Koshcheck to win their fights but the rest of the card should be just as exciting.

Such a stacked card and a great triple header.
Glad that Cub Swanson got a big win so far tonight, and I think Weidman vs Maia will be close but I’ll give it to Maia, Sonnen will beat Bisping (sorry fellow Brits), and Evans to win over Davis.
