I like 135 and 137 better than 136.

The end of this article makes me agree that Lesnar isn't going anywhere, win or lose.

I am also on the bandwagon of 136 being an AMAZING card...can't wait for that one. I think those little guys have the most entertaining fights...so much more energy than the bigger guys.

The little guys do have more energy but I don't always want to see fights go the distance. I want to see some knockouts and submissions and a lot of the little guys take it to the judges.

I can't believe no one is really giving Brock a chance against Reem, he has lost 11 fights in his career and has been knocked out multiple times, Chuck and Shogun both knocked him out and they are LHW's. I said it before but if Brock can take Cain down he can take Reem down and keep him there more than likely.

I think Brock can win, no doubt, but my money would be on Reem because he is a better striker and submitter as well as more experienced. Brock is coming off a long lay off too. I think the safe bet is Reem but by no means does that mean I don't think Brock could win. All it takes is one of his sludgehammers to end a fight or just control by wrestling on top and avoiding being submitted.

That was before Reem ate a horse and with that came all the steriods the horse was taking!

Overeem has a terrible chin. Brock has an excellent chin, he just reacts horribly when he gets hit in the face. Brock has taken huge shots and has never been KO'd, Overeem on the other hand has.

Yeah, Brock doesn't like getting hit at all. Which is why if Alistair is smart he will come out and throw hard from the get go.The_Crosby_Show;886433 wrote:Overeem has a terrible chin.

Brock needs to bring top level K1 guys in and have them beat the hell out of him in camp so he can get comfortable.

"He looked me right in my face and lied to me and told me he'd do [the promotional commitments]," said White, who played a video promoting Condit as Diaz's replacement. "Nick Diaz can't handle the pressure of a major main event. ... That's what I think."Raw Dawgin' it;886543 wrote:Condit is replacing Nick Diaz.

This is a tougher fight for GSP I think.

Damn. Dude is a fucking moron.

Once again, Basito is right.

I'm a huge Diaz fan but I can't defend him here, he just blew the biggest opportunity of his career and something he has worked 10 years for, Only thing I can say is that he needs to get help, it has been reported several times that he suffers from social anxiety disorder and struggles with doing media stuff. I hope he doesn't get cut but it wouldn't surprise me in the least and I can't say that he wouldn't deserve it, smh.

Diaz being Diaz. He has serious anxiety problems.
Condit is a tougher opponent for GSP. He's a fantastic kickboxer and has a slick ground game.
