Horrible matchup for a old Silvia. I can expect the same type of fight DC did with the spider. Not really excited for that fight. Sure it's cool that 2 legends fight it out but not at this point in there careers.

After the first Chael fight I pretty much lost most of my excitement for the Silva/GSP superfight. I felt like if Chael could do that, GSP would do it even better and most likely not get caught at the end like Chael did.

I like the fight the same strength/weakness since the start but Silva has fallen off more. Maybe that propels him to rise to the occasion again. GSP has shown weakness to quick strikers and good sub grapplers, whereas Anderson has a weakness for strong wrestlers + unassuming good strikers like Bisping which a patient GSP definitely is but Anderson tends to catch people by lulling them. So its always an interesting fight.

Main card up next. Smooth sailing from here, promising too considering the streak of finishes.

Bektic Doane
Struve v Omielanczuk
OSP v Manuwa
Belfort v Mousasi
And Bisping vs Hendo 2

I disagree with Luke Thomas about a lot of things but one thing I support him on 100 percent is that "Face The Pain" should be laid gently to rest and perhaps give the intro a bit of a "makeover."

I hear Vitor is annoucing retirement after this fight. I would've picked Mousasi because he's on the upswing whereas Vitor seemingly is on the down, but Vitor is a legend in a league of his own and would like to see him go out on a win esepcially since it's maybe his last and it's rather rare in MMA.

I agree but I think they do it for nostalgia tho. They tried doing a garbage edm remix but they went back to the old one. I would like tosee a new one maybe just have face the pain in some highlights

Haha I dont quite remember that I might recall it if I hear it. I was a kid during the early tufs and missed a bit in boarding school all this was blocked.

Bektic wins it hopefully I go 5 for 5

Can't believe Struve's corner still has to tell him to keep his chin down.
