Leonard Garcia to start off the card, you know that he will get it going right away.

144 is stacking up quite nice.

Mine either fucking Comcast

I put in a request for it.

I've convinced WOW! to add HD PPV's and Spike TV HD before. So hopefully it works again lol.

Does DirecTV offer it? I'm too lazy to check.

M1 Global is reportedly lobbying for a fight between Cain and Fedor in the UFC.

Someone told me that Chael was talking shit about Arianny not being too smart. Sounds to me like he asked her out and she turned him down. Ha

Dana won't do it because he hates Fedor (and because M1 usually wants ridiculous stipulations like co-promotion) but if they could get around that I'd still like to see Fedor in the UFC even if he would be only a Cro Cop like fighter at this point (competitive but perhaps prone to getting caught).

I agree but apparently they admitted to making crazy demands before so possibly they would back off on the co-promotion?

Here's what he said:

"We only had one and that was Chandella [Powell]. The other was the IQ card girl. Arianny [Celeste] kind of walks around and holds up her latest test score. One time when there was a title fight, she got all the way up to five and we were very proud of her."

Arianny:

"Hey what's ur name.. after @spideranderson kicks your [expletive]..u won't even be able to count to 5!! Get ready to kiss brazils [expletive]!"

Chael:

"Seems easy to wear a bikini and seems easy to walk in a circle, but try walking in a circle while wearing a bikini. Talented girl."

Hahahaha. Sonnen being Sonnen.
