    I'll watch it, and hell even root for Bonnar since it feels like they're throwing him to the wolves here, so I hope he pulls off the upset, however unlikely that might be.

    I'll be rooting for Bonnar as well. I'm pretty excited about this, this is a match-up that nobody expected and with no title on the line both guys might come out a bit more aggressive (I would like to think). Also, getting a fight that nobody expected is quite refreshing from the very predictable ones.

    I like Bonnar, I do...but he will end up being a punching bag, predict first round KO

    I'm just going to go ahead and say that I feel sorry for Stephan Bonnar. Going into the fight as a 13-1 underdog. The good thing is that he has nothing to lose and everything to gain!

    Not gonna lie i will be rooting for Silva i can never root against the man my obsession/interest in MMA only started due to a friend sending me a highlight reel of the Spider and it sucking me into the sport

    I want to see Bonnar win just because of how ridiculous it would be.

    Then watch him do this

    Imagine a universe where both Bonnar and Belfort upset their respective opponents? Ridiculous, indeed. Anyways, I don't think it'll happen, but it's fun to think about.

    I'mma go with Travis Browne. Simply because I want to see him put another beating on Bigfoot.

    I think Hendricks, Penn, and Bendo will get injured before their fights.

    Can't believe they were booing the flyweight fight. Terrible TO fans, I'd be absolutely thrilled if a card half this good was in my city.

    DAT ARMBAR, def thought we were gonna see a broken arm on tv,

    I was really hoping that armbar was going to break Jone's arm and end the fight :/

  16. #516
    Agreed. I mean, props on the kimura, but damn - that armbar was on point. I was hoping we were gonna have Mir-Nog 2.0 happen.

    I hate JBJ but that kid is a beast.

    The TO crowd should be ashamed for boo'ing Benevidez vs Johnson.

    i am glad for once thatt jones admited that he got fucked up. maybe hes losing his cocky edge which would be good. he gained some respect but hes still in the negatives for me

    Can't really blame him though, he had only ever lost one round so there wasn't really much for him to admit getting fucked up on. Coupled with the fact that he's still only 25 years old, success makes people do weird things especially young people. Personally, I like Jon Jones. I always have ever since he beat the hell out of Brandon Vera. However, I really don't care how athletes are outside of the ring. Some of the stuff like dropping his hands is kinda disrespectful but it doesn't effect me none.
