Glover is willing to trade and Bader has power, only chance I see Bader having here unless his wrestling is on point.

After each fight all I could think is there goes a bonus and then next thing you know someone topped it. Great card I don't see anyway Glover has a chance against Jon Jones though.

Team Alpha Male is on Fire!!! Good to see Lance Palmer get a shout out hopefully we see him In The UFC soon. Out of those 17 wins how many are by knockout.

He said he hurt his leg during the fight, guess that's why he didn't do his signature alligator walk.

Hopefully not too serious, he should fight the winner of Bisping/Munoz. Can't believe how far his striking has come, most bjj guys struggle with that aspect of MMA.

Definitely deserves a crack at the belt if he beats either of them.

Couple of fights announced recently, Mark Hunt vs Bigfoot Silva and Shogun vs Te Huna at UFC Fight Night 33 in Australia. Also, Gray Maynard vs Nate Diaz grudge match at the TUF finale.

BJ Penn comes out of retirement to fight the trilogy fight with Frankie Edgar at 145 pounds, WHAT?!?!? They will be the coaches for The Ultimate Fighter season 19.

Meh, does nothing for me. There are bigger and better fights out there.

Should be interesting. If BJ actually comes in fit (as in loses the extra weight in fat rather than a massive water cut) and wins then perhaps we could see a Randy Couture-esque return from retirement. I'm not anticipating that but it could happen.

As for Shogun-Te Huna. This is a dangerous fight for Shogun because Te Huna is nasty and yet doesn't have any name recognition. It's almost like they're trying to get him to retire. I could see it going similar to the Shogun-Vera fight in that Shogun's toughness and experience could be key.

I agree about the Shogun fight, Te Huna is very good on his feet but Shogun's toughness could be the difference. I can't picture BJ at 145, but what if he stops Frankie in devastating fashion? Does he try and win the 145 lb belt and become the first 3 division champion? A lot of questions to be answered. I think he should be able to make 145 if he does it properly, he was never really ripped up at 155.

That's a great fan friendly fight, will be fireworks. Not every fight has to mean something you know? I like fun fights.
