Lord of The Curry

That preview is misleading.

I'd actually say it's the opposite. McFedries seemed to be able to do next to nothing once Kampmann got him down and while Cote is known as a standup fighter he showed good positioning and ground and pound beating Jason Day in TKO this year as well as some nice ground strikes defeating Kendall. Now if Cote lands on his back and Drew starts bombing down on him like he did with Jordan Radev, yeah, that's trouble for Pat.

Drew McFedries looks to be making a return against Patrick Cote at the January UFN show.

So it's now confirmed that Fedor will be fighting on NYE, along with a roster that's rumored to feature........ Aleksander E Ricardo Arona Kazayuki Fujita Shinya Aoki Mitsuhiro Ishida Gilbert Melendez Tatsuya Kawijiri Joachim Hansen Hayato Mach Sakurai If even half that list (prefereably the bottom half) proves out........yowza.

In the mood to watch a tubby dude bleed, huh? I know the feeling.

This isn't anything huge but I figured that it was at least note-worthy. In the article on UFC.com about the WW division when they bring up GSP they say that he's "likely" going to be getting a shot at the winner of Serra/Hughes but that another fight before then isn't outside the realm of possibility. If that's the case then there's no reason why GSP/Fitch shouldn't go down.

Casual fans know Henderson as the guy who hanged tough with the Rampage at 205, it will have them wondering what Hendo is able to do at 185. Most UFC fans know who Hendo is already, as most of them have seen PRIDE before. Also known as the guy who never defended his belt and somehow lost to fucking Kazuo Misaki in a non-title fight.

It's an interesting fight but after seeing The Gonz get rolled by Randy and people (hopefully not) recalling Werdum's last fight I can see why there isn't a lot of buzz surrounding it. In an unrelated note feelers have been sent to AKA in regards to Jon Fitch taking on Gono at UFC 82 in Columbus which will have the main event of Anderson Silva vs Dan Henderson but AKA has reportedly been pressing for a Karo fight.

Lesnar was supposed to fight.

Word's coming out that Fedor will fight Hong Man Choi on NYE. Alright Fedor, you know I love you and all but you're pissin' me the fuck off. In the past two years you've fought Mark Coleman, Mark Hunt and a blown-up Matt Lindland. Step your game up or step off.

Explain what was pure shit about it.

It was never marketed as a #1 Contenders fight, just that the winner moves a step closer. I think Rashad gets one more big fight against somebody in 2008 like Shogun, Lyoto or the Tito rematch and then we'll see him challenging. And a big HOOOO-LEEEE SHIT to Silva/Hendo because if Hendo can't stop the path of destruction, nobody can.

Haven't seeing Darjeeling but I'd go with.... Royal Tennanbaums Life Aquatic Rushmore Bottle Rocket

Yikes, stem the flow here. While this wasn't exactly a raging success I wouldn't call it bad. We saw a KO, two sweet subs and (IMO) a good main event. Edgar/Fisher wasn't bad but it was very "Lather, Rinse, Repeat" but people will give most of the blame to Edgar while Fisher deserves fault (or credit) for having a very active botttom game. Karo mailed in the worst performance of his career and while Chonan isn't a slouch there was never a chance in the fight of him getting the win. I thought Ed/Dirte was good especially with the triangle at the end of round two as if there'd have been 10 more seconds in the round Ed would've been done. I personally enjoyed seeing "the questions" about Houston get answered as beating Jardine and Sakara were overrated to begin with. The main event performances on the part of both men were solid, Bisping's more so then Rashad's. Seeing how badly Rashad gassed in this fight I'd be confident in saying that if he were to face somebody at 205 that could neutralize his takedowns and stand with him to the point where Bisping did they'd beat him. Lauzon's choke was crazy awesome. Gono's tights were hotsex and the armbar was gully. Christ, sometimes MMA fans gets spoiled.

Gilbert Melendez vs Josh Thomson for the StrikeForce LW title is on for the March show.

I'd rather see Alves/Lytle make air above that but I wouldn't complain about Gono/Kitty making air either.

Gono vs McCrory- Staredown of The Year

Ditto. The hummingbird moment at the end had me and my two roommates all saying "Fuck yeah!" at the same time.

LYOTO VS SOKODJOU AWWWWWWWWWWWWW SHIT SON

In great news for people who want to see a FOTYC repeat but bad news for Rudo, Wagney Fabiano is out of his IFL GP Finals bout with Chris Horodecki. The replacement being Shad Lirely who went the distance with Chris earlier this year and impressed a lot of people in doing so.

Without reading the link, absolutely it does.

Right now it very possibly could be "Nantes" by Beirut though I heard "All My Friends" for the first time the other day and promptly borrowed by roommates album and listened to the whole thing. Lovely stuff.

I want to see GSP avenge the Serra loss before seeing him dish it out to Hughes again.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority of people who think that Chuck/Wanderlei is a more intriguing fight now that they're both coming off the losses.

Diaz really needs to learn some fucking wrestling. If he had even half-decent shots he'd be able to get guys down. And learning that getting hit even though you're not getting hurt isn't a good thing, especially now that he's going to have some fresh scar tissue from last night. In fact I think the cut on his right eye is the one that Gomi opened up in the above pic.
