:cool:

lol wow..should be a good fight. Both tough sob's, i'll predict Struve in a 3 round slugfest decision.

I heard all the prelims were horrible but the main card should be a good one..

It's a weak PPV card on free tv..

Main Event Drinking Game: drink any time Anik or KenFlo says "American" or "Hero"

If it's a slugfest there's no way Struve wins. If he's smart he'll take it to the ground early and sub Hunt. Saw on Facebook that Hunt had trouble cutting for this fight coming off his injury. Being an old school fan I'll be rooting for Hunt, but I think Struve takes it to the floor and wins by sub early.

As Sonnen just said, if Struve fights smart it will be a easy night for him.. Him fighting smart against Hunt is pretty much pulling guard..

Hunt def has a chance to land an huge overhand though..

Stun Gun Kim

really like Bahadurzada against Stun Gun tonight. Could be wrong but I really like Gomi tonight also.

I hate Sanchez so I am pulling for Gomi to reopen that vagina BJ Penn put on his dome..

bahardazadaadadasdassa has great takedown defense

soon as I typed the Kim got the single

and mount

I just picked Gomi based on Diego missing weight, looking really drawn out at the weigh in and the travel issue.

Stun gun channeling his inner Saku on those double strikes.

Yeah they showed him backstage and he looked horrible.. I missed the weighins cause I was at work..

fan from weigh-ins

Kim is manhandling him..

Stun Gun looked good, basic Kim though, if you can't defend his takedowns you're gonna lose.

nice pic of Saku btw

it was a random fan at the weigh-ins yesterday, not really saku

we'll now I feel racist knowing that, lol.

raff out rowd

sick arm triangle

i can not believe he couldn't finish there

wow, nice escape

YAHYA 29-28

classic wrestler vs striker match here[/jeff blatnick voice]

10-9 Okami

10-9 Okami again

10-9 Lombard, Okami wins 29-28

Lombard 1-2 in the UFC

disappointed

Here we go, WAR FIREBALL KID!!!!

i have aids

hate sanchez and his yes cartwheels soooo much

On a wrestling website where people just troll each each other, i'm so embarrassed.

So lame Gertner is hanging around to tell us how much on saturday night

that's how lame MMA is

I don't think this fight will go 3 rounds like other 4 so far lol

and struve pulls guard

amazing sweep there

jesus

hunt is tough as nails

this is a good fight

come one herb the fight was over

OMG!!!!!

Awesome

:heart: Mark Hunt

now the twitter douches are gonna be petitioning for Hunt to get a title shot..

They're doing a fantastic job promoting the GSP/Diaz fight.

lol

"yeah"

Lol.."yeah"

lol @ the stoppage. Hunt should stop doing that tho and make sure he finishes next time

Hunt vs. Overeem v. Dos Santos winner

yeah but hunt is a vet, struve was obv out and he didn't want to fuck him up unnecessarily

watch the replay, he was reluctant to go back to continue

wandy is gonna get KO'ed

And I'm gonna cry :'(

Seems possible. So basically JDS will dismantle Hunt

? If JDS takes him down

Who's ready for SANDSTORM !!!!!!

Cain would also dismantle him..

Former Pride 205 champ vs former WEC 205 champ..

This is gonna be good..

GAY

he should have come out to the Pride music

? Sandstorm is his jam

Pretty cool how Wandy comes out to this most of the time

i know but its gay and he is fighting in japan for the last time

Fighters should try n stick with one intro. Like in wrestling!

:n:

WAR STANN

SLOBERKNOCKER

Wandy shoulda just walked off like Hunt and furtherd anymore damage to Stann

Last two fights much better than first four snoozefests

Great fight, PRIDE Lives !!!!!

Has Stann lost his last 3 now?

nah dude

Brian Stann would have, Wandy is a straight up killer.. Watch his old Pride fights.. All the excessive knees he threw on Rampage was why Rampage gave him like 5 hammer fists after he KO'ed him with a vicious right hook..

Partying tonight like it's 2004!!!!

Watchin Pride all night in celebratrion!!!
