But, the atmosphere of a live event for me has only been matched by Penn State football games. I went to the GSP/Hardy fight in Newark and hearing the crowd when Carwin smashed Mir, and during GSP's entrance were the highlights of the night.

I was at the Newark fight too. ****ty night of fights until Carwin destroyed Mir.

I think the Jones v Glover match is going to go one of three ways.

1. Glover takes a few too many risks and Jones makes him pay for it via submission.

2. They battle it out and go the distance (Glover's chin is great) but Jones wins the desicion because I don't see Glover looking too good in rounds 4 and 5 (cardio).

3. The stars line up just right and Jones has an "off night" and Glover is on his absolute A game.. and there is a new champ.

Damn. Bobby Green is hurt again and had to pull out of the fight. Yancy Medeiros is in vs. Jim Miller.

I'm disappointed. Was really looking forward to seeing Green.

I've been waiting for this. I hope Glover makes a fight of it!

I hope so as well, but I just can't see it happening. I think Jones is going to roll through him, but crazier things have happened. And any time a guy can hit as hard as Glover can, anything is possible. Bader started off very well against Glover but got careless. I can't see Jones doing the same, and I think he'll finish it in round 1 or 2.

I'm really looking forward to Davis/Johnson as well. Benavidez/Elliott is a great prelim too!

I think this fight is going to be completely one sided. The only guy to threaten Jones was Gustafsson and that was because he had a lenghty reach like Jones which is something Glover doesnt have. Glover will have to commit to getting inside and risk getting knocked out or this will be an insanely boring fight.

Yeah, I don't see this fight being exciting at all. I see a boring fight with Glover getting TKO'd. Would be more than happy to be wrong.
