Thought the same exact thing.

Have him fight Rashad and see how he does.
I already said Coleman wasn't before, just forgot to add it there.

Forrest was still in every top 10 and most had him at around 6 ish when he fought Shogun the second time. So yes, he was still a top guy.

Most people still had Chuck in their top 5s at the time and I can't think of anyone who didn't still have him top 10.

Great fights coming up tomorrow night!
I'll take:
Bendo
Cerrone
Herman
Okami

Really hope Bendo gets the win, i enjoy watching him fight more than i do Edgar. I think it'd be sweet if Frankie dropped down to fight Aldo.

I hope shields loses, haven't seen an exciting fight with him. Not interested in seeing him fight for a title again.

He's got a long way to go at 185 if he wants a title shot.

I don't think so. Say Hendo wins, they'll go "Jake Shields, the last guy to beat the 205lb champ"

They'll spin anything for story lines

I'll probably just watch this one on the comp. Hard to justify paying 45 bucks for a ppv with Melvin Guillard in the co main event.

I actually thing it is a really fun card...really looking forward to it. But then again, when you split the cost 10 ways.

My picks:

Henderson over Edgar (not going all 5 rounds...or at least I pray not)
Cerrone over Guillard (Love Cowboy, but wouldn't be sad if Guillard wins because I want to see him do well again)
Herman over Shields (Shields' career is pretty well over in my opinion. such a boring fighter, so I hope Herman destroys him)
Okami over Roberts (Don't know a lot about Roberts, considering that, Okami is top tier...so I don't see him losing)
Lawrence over Holloway (I see Lawrence having a pretty successful career)

Yeah, I'd easily get every ppv if I had a group of 10 friends who were down to watch every one. We used to be able to get 5 or 6 people together but there would always be 1 or 2 who wouldn't chip in. Now my friends are all too whipped to get together so I mainly watch them at home. I just don't feel like Melvin Guillard in the co main event is worth 45 bucks.

I'd have to get a better comp to watch them all online and I don't dig the bar/BDubs scene for fights so I buy the better cards.

I had it as draw 48-48. That's why you don't leave it up to the judges.
