Jeremy Horn vs Rousimar Palhares

I've probably got Palhares sirname wrong, but fuck that. This is an undercard fight in Dublin for the Franklin/Hendo card and it's got me salavating more than most fights. Denis Kang on the card as well.

If I had put a bit of a fire behind Mr Harvey, I could have been at this card.

Bad times.

Anyway, Middleweight is looking up for UFC. Pitting Jeremy Horn against their newest protoge is obviously intended for Palhares to win against a well known game fighter and go for Silva. If I was asked for 5 guys who could fuck up Rousimar's route to the top, Horn would be one of them.

I think they have missed the boat as far as pushing Kang in UFC now, but educated fans know he is not another gatekeeper. This is a good card. Best of over 6 months as far as i'm concerned. glad it's at least closer to my house than the MGM Grand Garden Arena
