MAIN CARD * Champ Urijah Faber vs. Mike Brown (for featherweight title) * Champ Paulo Filho vs. Chael Sonnen (for middleweight title) * Leonard Garcia vs. Jens Pulver * Jake Rosholt vs. Danillo Villefort * Donald Cerrone vs. Rob McCullough PRELIMINARY CARD * David Avellan vs. TBA * Danny Castillo vs. Ed Ratcliff * Johny Hendricks vs. Alex Serdyukov * Yoshiro Maeda vs. Rani Yayha * Steve Steinbeiss vs. Alex Schoenauer * Jose Aldo vs. Jonathan Brookins This card is so fucking dope... I don't even know where to start. Look at those top three bouts... just awesome. If Garcia beats Jens, he fights Urijah and that's probably going to be a great fight. Garcia hung w/ Huerta despite being completely outsized and we all know Jens brings 100% every time...also The Cowboy vs. Razor Rob for a shot at Jamie Varner and the prime-time debut of Jake Rosholt, who is an absolute stud. Maeda vs. Yayha! Fuck yea..if there's any luck that will make the broadcast, but it may not because if at all possible they are also going to want to get Rosholt's teammate and also highly touted Johnny Hendricks on the air. Those are two star-quality guys they have there. Those of you with HDNet might remember the two of them for being guests on Inside MMA within a few weeks of each other and also for the card they co-headlined that they broadcast. This is next week! Fuck yes!

Not only that but BJ can't fight Stevenson again. UFC 80 was a first class fucking beat down. Florian, yeah. Stevenson, no.

Justin Long was fuckin' great in this. I really enjoyed the movie but I'm not much of a Kevin Smith fan so I probably saw it a bit differently then you guys.

I think it's ok but it got old fast.

^^ How quickly he forgets Quarry/Starnes. Speaking of Nate, he signed an endorsement deal with And1. Yes, the hoops company. Good for him. Pulver going down quickly: not that big a surprise. He's getting old and Leonard Garcia is either doing one of two things: a) kicking ass (when at his proper weight class) or b) slangin' rocks and apparently he was all out of rocks. But seriously - Garcia is fucking good. Faber... I dunno. Maybe he was starting to believe his own hype a bit too much. I think this loss will end up being a very positive thing for him. I think Leonard "The Trafficker" Garcia should get the first crack at Mike Brown though.

Challenge details to be made official after Thanksgiving.

Randy Marsh... MVP of yet another South Park episode. But the fake stupid Palin was pretty funny too... "Oh hang on a sec, my phone's going ringy."

Mike Brown's no joke... too bad WEC never promoted him and now all of a sudden this is a massive upset. Upset, yes. But Mike Brown is a fuckin' good fighter, man. And Rudo, yes D, because having a chin gives you plus points even if you look like a total retard everywhere else. F would have had a KO attached at the end as well.

In regards to Filho: WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? I think he's gone off the deep end or something. Aaron Simpson had a really sick knockout, as well. Great card up until Filho decided to take his depression party into the cage.

I agree 100% but I think like most good wrestlers and great athletes the standup will improve fast. It'd better. Faber vs. Garcia... sign me up. Urijah took 5 rounds but Garcia knocks Pulver out in about a minute. Impressive.

Fucking awesome fight. Rosholt almost got knocked out standing a few times but always managed to find that takedown. A+ on the ground, D on the feet. He needs some seasoning yet.

Ugh, Troy Waugh already.

Tonight: Randy Marsh + Obama love = sign me the fuck up.

With brilliant campaigning like this; there surely has been a mistake.

Well... maybe not now but before the first Sonnen fight yes. I'd say so.

7 pounds over is inexcusable for the 2nd best middleweight in the world... no doubt about it. After depression and rehab and what not you have to wonder how much Filho's head is still in the game at this point.

Or come in 7 pounds over. Featherweight (145 lbs.): Urijah Faber (144.5) vs. *Mike Brown (145.5) Middleweight (185 lbs.): *Paulo Filho (192) vs. Chael Sonnen (184.5) Featherweight (145 lbs.): Jens Pulver (146) vs Leonard Garcia (145.5) Middleweight (185 lbs.): Nissen Osterneck (184.5) vs. Jake Rosholt (185.5) Lightweight (155 lbs.): Rob McCullough (155.5) vs. Donald Cerrone (156) Middleweight (185 lbs.): David Avellan (185) vs. Aaron Simpson (184.5) Featherweight (145 lbs.): Jose Aldo (146) vs. Jonathan Brookins (146) Light Heavyweight (205 lbs.): Carmelo Marrero (206) vs. Steve Steinbeiss (202) Lightweight (155 lbs.): Rafael Dias (155) vs. Danny Castillo (156) Bantamweight (135 lbs.): Yoshiro Maeda (135) vs. **Rani Yahya (137)

I'm loving Seth Green being back next week and telling E to have Sloane call him and ask him what's up. I can sense another midget brawl a-comin'.

For a second I was thinking that this card has Tamura/Fabiano and was mildly disappointed when I saw that it didn't but then I looked at the card again and my disappointment went away. Couple Tamura/Fabiano w/ Tapia/Torres and that's two homerun cards in a row. The two month delay, if nothing else, gave Filho time to pick out the perfect cutoff flannel.

Not a big fan of the Giraffes skit. Sloths! was way better the first time they did it. I got a few laughs out of Night School Musical. "Are you still going to want to talk to me when you're certified to operate a forklift?"

I must be missing something... I don't know.

Stankie talking about "getting down and smelling farts" was probably the most embarrassing thing on TUF ever. In fact, his entire coaching staff placement is downright laughable.

I was enjoying all the Cornell stuff... All the "Life is a Highway" stuff was begging for a "that's what she said".

King Mo was on Inside MMA last week = Mo Lawal.

Small request: no more posts on Ultimate Finales in this thread. They aren't going to get a show thread so the only place I can logically move them is into the season thread. I already did that for this season and the posts that have been in this thread so far, but I think it's perfectly acceptable to discuss the TUF finale in the season thread.
