July is gonna be a busy and awesome month for mma. We start off with a stacked 148 card. Then free fights on fuel followed by a strike force card that has Rockhold vs Kennedy (should be awesome) and Nates return. We finish with a ok 149 card all in three weeks.

Agreed, huge month. 149 looks pretty damn good to me so far.

I'm assuming they will end up showing a lot of the prelim fights during the pay per view.

Completely disagree, that dude is a really good fighter and it wouldn't totally surprise me if he won.

He has never impressed me and his best win was against a washed up Fedor and an average Mike Kyle

He's well rounded, big, strong, power in his hands. He could give Cain a lot of problems. I fully expect Cain to win due to his speed advantage however.

I agree Bigfoot has some physical skills but he doesn't seem very technical in the way he fights and even looks disinterested a lot of the time.

That the Dustin Porier documentary? Checkout Driven, the Jens Pulver documentary, really enjoyed that.

Just watched the weigh ins. Should be an exciting night of fights. I imagine they will end up showing a decent amount of the prelim fights during the ppv due to the all heavyweight main card.
