Be a former champ that (aside from Matt Serra upset) gave GSP his closest fight in the past 3 years? It's no secret that BJ wants to be at 170 and he's also a former WW champ. It's not that far-fetched.

Oh, you mean like every other weight class ever? Thiago Alves weighs as much as I do (about 210) and fights at 170. Give me a break.

Kenny may have beaten Joe in half the time but on one hand you have an impressive victory and on the other hand you have a first class beatdown that looked like a homicide that left Joe's wife screaming and crying like Joe was being murdered in the ring. BJ himself has said that the hardest part of the Stevenson fight was during the cut stoppage looking in the crowd and seeing Joe's wife absolutely hysterical in tears. Somehow I doubt that happened during the Florian fight. What has BJ Penn done to earn this shot? 1) Nearly beat GSP a few years ago. He lost a razor thin split decision that he only lost due to his lack of cardio. That's it. You can spin it any way you want but after he busted GSP's nose he had him and then he gassed out and still could have won the fight. I agree with the decision but you're a Cecil Peoples away from BJ having won the first fight. 2) In the process of painting the UK red with Joe Stevenson's blood he became the second man in UFC history to hold championships in two divisions (What's up Randy?). I think this is worthy of a mega-fight. 3) He took Sean Sherk, who has looked unbeatable at 155 and made him look like a fucking bitch. He was AFRAID of BJ. Mr. Muscle Shark shot only ONCE and checked his gameplan at the door because BJ was too much for him. One can argue that BJ didn't look impressive because it went 3 and he mostly pawed with his jab but I would argue that they weren't watching the same fight that I was. It was a beautiful gameplan, executed flawlessly and that TKO sequence at the end is a thing of beauty... perfectly timed knee. 4) BJ has been calling out GSP for years... even before he beat Pulver. 5) Brock Lesnar corollary: book the fight that will sell the most money. Even without #5, he deserves the shot at GSP more then anyone. The ONLY other logical contender for GSP at this time is Thiago Alves but they couldn't have rushed him in to a title shot because he still hadn't proved he could make weight by the time the fight was booked. If you ask me, he still hasn't proven it. Yeah - Florian deserves BJ. I can't even argue that. But BJ abso-fucking-lutely deserves GSP. And Czech - 1 and 1/2 months left of the sigs followed by an additional month of 1/2 of us with matching sigs of the loser getting tooled. Enjoy!!

Everybody blowing up the comments sections and sherdog talking about how those were "weak shots" on the ground only needs to watch that MMA fix video... Randy's face is decimated. I agree... those shots didn't look like much but damn.

Oh, hey do you guys think Randy thinks that he can still beat Fedor? There goes that dream.

This video interview is proof that Brock "gets it". Total dickhead when the hype/camera is on but nothing but humble in analysis situations. He knows how to sell the fight. http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/video?id=3705793

MMAMania is suggesting to maximize Randy's final two fights before he retires. Their main suggestion: Randy vs. Anderson Silva at 205. Yes, please. I like that idea.

Not me! I've been riding that wagon since the very f'n beginning.

Looking ahead - can he beat Nog? Shit... might be a short reign. Awesome nonetheless.

FUCK YEAH.

Glad Brock got rid of that lame 80s hair rock entrance.

Kenny's a beast. Another great performance. "Time to kill that master."

shit... why the takedown?

Ok here we fucking go now. C'mon Barncat!!

Multiple streams have been listed so no more asking. Posts will be deleted.

WTF are those lumps all over Hendrick's body? And man oh man was I wrong about Nate testing Maia's chin.

I picked Brock but in no way do I think Randy is a long shot. And if he's hurt then I'm questioning my pick even more.

ESPN.com doing the weigh-ins live with two ESPN guys with Bonnar and Mir being guest analysts and they are actually talking/giving commentary over the weigh-ins... in a way, treating it like every other sport. This is awesome. One step closer to mainstream acceptance.

Checked out both of the CDs. Like the debut better as of now but they are both decent to good. Glad I downloaded them.

Trailer: http://www.traileraddict.com/trailer/up/trailer Only a few months away... this is the first I've heard of it. Looks like it could be interesting. They still haven't let me down. Coming off Wall-E, which is one of my favorites. I think, as of now... my list is: 1. Wall-E 2. Monsters Inc. 3. Toy Story 4. Finding Nemo 5. The Incredibles 6. Toy Story 2 7. A Bug's Life 8. Ratatouille 9. Cars I like them all but the top 3 are pretty solidly my favorite. 4-7 are interchangeable and even though I still like Cars and Ratatouille, they're at the end. On the horizon: Toy Story 3 in 2010. The plot: Andy goes to college and Buzz and Woody end up in a day care center. That sounds like a winning plot. And then in 2011 there will be Cars 2. Eh.

Gay dad was the best. "I slap you, slap slap slap slap slap you. Oh, don't worry bitch, I didn't forget about you."

Oops.

Barncat by 1st round KO (no fucking T needed, thank you). Would I be surprised if he got subbed like a bitch? No. No I wouldn't. But I believe in Tamdan. Gonzaga over Hendriks (who is Xtreme Couture so even though I'm not familiar with him - I dunno... kinda like Reijlic... never heard of him but trains with Randy and looked amazing in his first big UFC fight). Still going to go with Gabe to rebound from Pussyitis and regain some of that "monster" form. Second round sub. Nate Quarry over Maia by 1st or 2nd round KO. Everyone to this point has been stupid enough to play into Maia's gameplan. Herman is a dumb white trash retarded fucktard who wanted to beat Maia at his own game... epic fail. And MacDonald is a cocky fucker who fought an awesomely stupid (but overall awesome to watch) fight against Maia and naturally got subbed. Maia needs his chin tested. Nate, if nothing else, should be good for that. I feel him pulling out a KO. Florian over Stevenson by 2nd round TKO due to strikes. Kenny is the clear #1 contender and I've lost all faith in Joe right now. BJ murdered him in front of his screaming, crying wife and then you may forget but Joe was not faring well his last time out until he caught that guillotine and won. I had him down in that fight. Brock new champ via 1st round TKO. Tim Sylvia and Gonzaga were both supposed to be "too big" for Randy because he was "too old". Here's the thing... Sylvia and Gonzaga put together are still about half as athletic and explosive as Brock Lesnar. Yes, Gonzaga is probably more skilled but Randy's old legs aren't going to be handle 280 pounds of fury exploding all over him and pretty much manhandling him. Somebody said up there that if Randy gets Brock on his back then it's over for Brock. I totally agree. But I just don't see Randy getting Brock on his back. I'd be more surprised at that then I was when Randy almost KO'd Sylvia in the first 30 seconds of his first comeback fight and I nearly jumped through my ceiling. Gotta go with Brock here... gut feeling.

This will be the first card I make real money bets on. I'm a pussy so it's only $15 a fight. I was able to lock in Nate Quarry at +190, which I think is a pretty fair bet. I also got Brock, who is a slight favorite over Randy. Fun times!
