Exactly, Lyoto has knocked people out at HW and LHW, Nick has a legendary chin but there is a reason there are weight classes. Fight makes zero sense.

And Diaz plays right into Machida's game. He constantly moves forward and throws punches so Lyoto can use his countering the whole time.

Yeah that wouldn't be pretty, Nick should fight either Kampmann or Matt Brown, those would be sick fights.

Deals are all done for Fox Sports 1, Directv channel 219 for me. Prelims start on Facebook tomorrow at 4:30, then on FS1 at 6, main card at 8. Incredible card.

Less then an hour I'm really looking forward to overeem vs Browne I think overeem is overrated and Browne is underrated. This will tell us which one of these two is ready for the final step up in competition.

I could see Browne beating Reem but I think Reem is going to KO him. Agree that Browne is underrated though.

Disappointing fight between Hall/Howard. Howard takes the Split Dec.

I concur. Really disappointed in Hall's performance. Seemed like there was too much love/respect between them.

Prelims were great though.
