Great fight for these two. Should be very entertaining.

Also this UFC card is looking better and better. Very good for a card in England.

This card keeps on getting better, can't wait to watch it. You guys in the US should also be happy as it should be on spike.

:lol: If only this could have been in London. I would have gone then. Yeah, it would have been great if it was in London. But then again 85 was in London and I went to that so I guess we can't be too greedy. :D

It's an interesting match-up. I don't think Machida has faced a fighter that will chase him endlessly around the ring and force the action constantly. It will be interesting to see if Machida will still be able to remain 'elusive' if someone is in his face. I can't see this going the distance.

It will be interesting to see if Machida will still be able to remain 'elusive' if someone is in his face. I can't see this going the distance. A lot of people said the same thing when he faced Sokoudjou and look what happened to him. But I think people would have thought Soku's ground game would have been better with his judo background. At least with T.Silva we know he is good on the ground so it makes this fight more interesting. Still fancy Machida to get the win though. Who do you guys think Wand will face next? Rampage was talked about but for the time being that looks very unlikely. I have a feeling if Vera wins this weekend (which he should do) it will probably be him.
