- Matt Hamill vs. Brandon Vera

- Evan Dunham vs. Matt Veach
- Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Chris Tuchscherer*
- Todd Duffee vs. Mike Russow*
If only a "couple" of these fights interest you than i feel pretty sorry for you.
You have two blue-chip prospects in Dos Santos and Rosholt. It will be interesting to see how Rosholt does against a striker like Leben.
Two solid HW debuting in Tuchscherer and Russow. Also interested in seeing Duffee. Tuchscherer vs. Gonzaga should interest everyone.
Vera vs. Hamill is a good fight. Nice step up in competition for Hamill (outside of Franklin) to see if he's ready to move to the next level. Also to see if Vera still has some of that promise he used to have.
Maia vs. Marquardt is awesome. Two potential MW contenders. Not much more needs to be said.
I think Silva vs. Jardine will let us know if all the hype surrounding Thiago was worth it, or if he lost to Machida simply because Machida is a beast.
Plus the main event, which should be a good indication of Nog has anything left in the tank to make another title run or not. Plus Couture didn't look THAT bad against Lesnar in the last fight.
Overall this is a very solid card. Those who say otherwise must be living in some kind of fantasy world.Comment
