But that's not the story I wanted to discuss, I see Jon Jones is on the Undercard and "The American loser" is above him on the main card.....I would say I hope bonnar gets knocked out quickly but that would take away from Jones's victory over him. I do hope one fight ends early so I can watch it on PPV tho, he's a great fighter.

Lesnar V Mir hasn't been signed for 100 yet. Also Fitch V Thiago is rumoured to be on the undercard not the main card.

Of course Bonnar is on the main card over Jones. Bonnar was apart of "the biggest match in UFC history" and Coleman is a legend. So what do you really expect? (Especially since Jones is facing O'Brien...

So yeah...

that is a lackluster card considering it's UfC 100. Some cool fights but they need to really clusterfuck it just because of how special the show should be.

Yeah I agree with Newstead, Hulk Hogan needs to be involved.

I dunno it seems like a good card to me.

I dunno, Bonnar vs. Coleman... really? :meh: And honestly if Paulo Thiago gets a slot on the main card that is ultra lame.

the two title matches are sick, and so is Bisping vs. Hendo... but I'm sure you could have two more crazy big fights involved.

That card isn't that great. WTF?

It's a VERY GOOD card, but not epic.

Not epic, not great. Good show for sure, but not for a centennial. They should open with some Lumberjack Noggin Smash.

the top three fights are incredible. The last two main card fights for a centenial card make me a little sick. Stephan bonnar just got his shit fucked up by a guy thats on the undercard and coleman has no business in the cage at his age. Jon Fitch is a good fighter to have on there but why have him fight paulo thiago? Yes he beat josh, but one upset victory shouldnt forever etch you name in history as being on the main card of the centennial UFC card. honestly I dont know who they could put in there with the way fights have been schedualed already but it doesnt seem right.

I one hundred per cent agree with you.

I think money probably plays the big factor in this. With guys like fitch and bonnar, they are established names who come cheaper than others. Coleman is there for the historic value and thiago, well, however he did it, he did beat Koscheck and that makes him more famoous and viable than he was previously.

I would have gone with Goulet over him, or even Parisyan but there you go.

I think they should have made the PPV a little more expensive, made it a 4 hour show and added one or two more high profile fights. It isn't going to draw much more if any more than Lesnar/Randy, but the people who are going to buy it, would probably not begrudge this.

Parisyan is suspended for nine months fyi (Also his victory over Kim is now a no contest)

Reavant

he probably would have been on the card had it not been for the suspension :-\

I'd certainly believe it. I feel sorry for the guy, he just can't seem to catch a break

It's hard to catch a break when you are your own worst enemy.
