Damn, that is the kind of card that Fox needs to have to build up some steam.

True. I missed the date in my excitement.

No way this card makes it.

Excatly. I don't want to seem negative, but by the time December 8th gets here I predict that only one of these fights will actually make it. The card will probably look closer to:

Bendo vs. Diaz
Gustafsson vs. Te-Huna
MacDonald vs. Swick

I told you the stacked cards were coming. Lets hope that at least two of the fights actually make it to the 8th.

Yeah it was a given they would stack this card and the New Year's card. They had to.

On paper I don't think there's been a better card in a long while.

If Gus & Rua fight like their previous bouts, Rua is going to get owned.

Rua is such a frustrating fighter to watch. Some days he looks like he could beat anyone, other days he looks like he did against the first Griffin fight.

Pettis/Cowboy would be an awesome 4th main card fight for this.

Thats the rumor but come on. Thats just too ****ing stacked. A title fight, 2 #1 contender fights AND Penn/Mcdonald? Thats too much.

More likely Pettis/Cerrone will be on the JDS/Cain card or they push it back to January.

We can hope (and dream) can't we?
I wouldn't even be surprised if they have a FX card in January that it would be headlining it.
