IDK how keen I am on it. I might just be a miser. Davis and Fisher and Kelly, Taylor, Hardy, Etim...those are all awesome fighters.

I'll repeat that Wanderlei desperately needs to retire. It's gross at this point. I wont' watch that fight.

Pretty friggin good for a Europe card, IMO.

The televised fights all have my interest. I bet you will end up watching the Wandy vs. Franklin fight, CBR. How could you not? I think he has a decent shot at winning.

Saunders vs. Swick is a fight I've been looking forward to for a while. Swick should take it, but it should be a fun one to watch.

Davis vs. Hardy is another really good one. I think they want Hardy to win, but Davis will put up a good fight. I think Hardy will end up winning, but it's a tough one to pick. I wonder what the odds are.

Fisher vs. Uno is a pretty good fight as well. Fisher could very well take it, but Uno is no pushover, even at this point in his career. I always like to see Japanese guys come over and test the UFC waters, because it gives us a much clearer look at the relative quality of competition when people start having common opponents.

Along the same lines, it should be interesting to see how Cain does vs. Herring. Can he do what Brock couldn't (or wouldn't?) do and finish him? How much would that even mean? I'm kind of expecting Cain to run through him, but I still think he would get handled by Brock, if that makes sense.

Looks like a decent preliminary card as well, with some exciting guys on there (Kelly, Taylor, Etim, as mentioned...I'm also looking forward to the Stojnic vs. Struve fight...kind of a freak show)

I dunno why, maybe im delusional. But I do not see Cain beating Herring. Let alone runnin though him.
