    Wow, Miguel Torres has really fallen down the totem pole. Card is solid but really not a PPV worthy main event.

    Solid card all the way around, you get 6 former world champions all in the main card

    Im undecided on the main event, yet again, Hendo always gets rocked against strikers only this time if he does get hurt it will be against an injury free and fresh Rua who is a finishing machine

    Rua sub 2nd
    Wandy TKO 1st
    Faber TKO 3rd FOTN
    Kammpman UD
    Bonnar UD

    Rua's knees are trashed. He will never be 'fresh' again. If he doesn't catch Henderson early, he loses this one.

    Ain't that the fucking truth...knee injuries are the worst, kneecaps don't heal.

    I'm guessing you bought Couture vs Coleman too right.

    Solid card. No idea who wins the main event. I think Le is going to KTFO Silva. Silva is completely shot. When he got KTFO'd by Chris Leben it was a sad moment. Just like Chuck, he can do ok until he gets clipped then thats it.

    Actually I was in Vegas and went to Couture-Coleman. It was Super Bowl weekend and probably the best atmosphere, from a sporting perspective, that I've ever seen.

    But I'm not sure I get the reference. Neither Rua or Henderson are shot. Either guy with a win in this fight probably moves to the front of the line to challenge Jones.

    Again, you try too hard. This is a solid PPV main event backed by a very good supporting card. You've got great match ups like Faber-Bowles and Story-Kampmann as well as a novelty "must see" in Le versus Silva.

    Why am I shocked that you are completely uninformed when it comes to MMA?

    Rua and Henderson are worthy of PPV? Please. I already said the undercard is good but the main event is lacking a PPV worthy headliner. Rua/Henderson would be an excellent UFC on Fox fight.

    Bonnar dominates Kingsbury in boring fashion for a UD.

    Stephan Bonnar UD Kyle Kingsbury. A lot of ground posing. The crowd boos Bonnar's performance.

    Fights not that exciting thusfar. Bonnar fight was lackluster. Kampmann might have got the choke if he didn't run out of time but overall not the best of fights either.

    Martin Kampmann SD Rick Story - Close fight. I felt Kampmann edged it out.

    Brutal second round by Faber, that was violent.

    Urijah Faber submission over Brian Bowles Round 2 - Faber looked great in destroying Bowles. He's now earned a third fight against the reigning UFC bantamweight champion, Dominick Cruz.

    Probably the last time we'll see a Silva walkout. Sad how all the Pride superstars are all washed up at this point, we all gotta get old I guess.

    Poor Wanderlei. He's so tentative. Obviously the KO's have affected his style and rightfully so.

    Pretty good first round! Le has the skills but after the Smith loss I'm not sure he's got the stamina to outlast Silva.

    Very good fight so far. Le hurt him early, Wandy hurt him late. Both guys look like senior citizens in there.

    Le is very uncomfortable in close, if Silva could unload like in the old days he'd get the KO

    Just as I was writing that Silva goes on the offense and ends up getting the knockout lol. Good for Silva. Good fight.

    Silva TKO2 Le - Le was in a competitive fight but just faded badly. Great win by Silva.

    What do you guys think about the stoppage? I would've given Le a little bit more time. There was a little less than a minute left in the round.
