    It is no other than....DRUMROLL..........Big Foot Silva. Roy Nelson will fight either Ben Rothwell or Travis Browne. (I say Travis Browne. He deserves it a lot more than Rothwell)

    But this card sure lost A LOT of its appeal. We started with Overeem vs JDS which would be a stand up WAR. Possibly of the highest stand up level in recent history. And as a co main event we had a great great intriguing match up of Mir / Cain. Plus couple other good scraps. Now it's pretty average card to be honest. It went from being 9/10 to me to 6/10

    BigFoot got f*cked up very very badly in his last fight against Cormier.

    Hmmmm.

    Rothwell already has a win over Nelson so I'll assume we'll Nelson-Browne.

    5 interesting HW bouts but not near the card it was.

    Shit fight. This will look exactly like Bigfoot/Cormier.

    Dana should have given us Cain vs Werdum. That would have been much more interesting.

    Did you read about that one too? I know you're not actually watching any MMA.

    I've been watching MMA for 19 years. All the way back to when I had the old Zenith box that unscrambled ppvs.
