I hope that Randy does win but i always wonder is this the fight where age does catch up with him he’s older than Shamrock.I mean the guy can’t go on forever 45 is old to compete at a high level in MMA.

I can’t really argue about 8 of those fights but the one I think that shouldn’t be there is Couture -V- Lesnar because it is 2 wrestlers against each other and sounds like a boring fight. I think the Quarry -V- Maia fight is more interesting because it will give us a chance to see if Maia is capable of being a middleweight champion and what sort of chin he has aswell

I do not understand that people here come in and have no idea of what the schedule is of upcoming events.

BJ vs. GSP Jan 31, 2009
Machida and Silva the same night
Forrest is fighting before the end of the year against Evans (Dec 27)
And BadMonkey….with the exception of you, the only people that are intrigued by Vera and Jardine are their mothers

As I need to note:
Do not always take my opinions and statements seriously

Quinton Jackson vs. Wanderlei Silva !!! I cant wait
everyday is just another 24 hours I have to wait until they fight.

I thought BJ Penn and GSP was this year, dec 27th, is that fight postponed?

A good list overall, but Sherk vs. Griffin?? C’mon dude. Two guys who can’t finish a fight AND can’t beat BJ Penn on their best day!! Sorry, but there had to be a better choice than this. What about Vera vs. Jardine? That fight will say a lot about what Vera is capable of doing at LHW and whether Jardine will be in the UFC much longer.

#10-Bisping vs. Leben and/or Franklin vs. Henderson

Guida vs. Diaz is rumoured for the TUF finale in Dec.? .
Let’s hope it happens.

Indeed…all of the forthcoming fights are exciting, except for Silva vs. Jackson. I think almost everyone would agree that this fight is gonna be Silva all the way. Silva has proven this 2 times when he defeated Jackson back in Pride.

Even if Jackson (by some stroke of miracle), manages to pull a victory over Silva. The latter still enjoys two KO victories over the former.

some pretty awesome fights there,and looking foward to them but i’m a little suprised you didn’t mention franklin/hendo.Maybe it’s because i’m a big fan of franklin,but i think that should be up there.

Good to see someone defend Wandy/Wampage 3. Rampage has evolved quite a bit, the cage favors his style, and Wandy hasn’t evolved as much as he should have; so I’m thinking Rampage will win this. Personally, I think the two of them should have a yearly showdown every December.

Couture/Lesnar will be gigantic, no doubt. You’re right about all the questions that pop up with this fight. I would add that there will be a whole new set of questions raised once we see who wins this and the interim HW title. I hate to give so much credit to such a new fighter, but Brock is really making the HW division interesting.

love this article… firstly, is there word on when machida silva will take place? or if?… hopefully rampage wins with a huge knockout, not because i like him better but because it will mean silva rampage 4!!! griffen sherk should be great i see a changing of the gaurd happening there and garcia pulver looks to be a down right srcap soooo stoked for that bout. not only is goran reljic disgusting on his feet like a lil crocop, but i beleuve he trained gracie jits as well this is one of the new guys im most excited about, cant wait till i dont have to hear about kimbo anymore

Hey Nick, I’m not trying to be Mr. Perfect-Writer or Grammar Guy, but I wanted to make you aware of the same mistake twice.
“but Alvarez may prove to be to much for him.”
“Is it to soon for Brock to have this fight?”

Silva vs Jackson will be huge, there’s enough footage and legend to make this fight big.

I like Griffin but I think Florian vs Stevenson will be better. I just want to know who will win the stand up in Sherk-Griffin. This fight may go to decision.

Doughbizzle420- If I am not mistaken there is a rumor that Clay Guida will fight Nate Diaz next. Not sure when.

some great fights on that list but there are a couple more i am really looking foward 2. Some off you guys might get mad at me but i cant wait for the leben vs bisping fight leben is one of my favorite fighters and it promises to be a war. next the florian stevenson match might be one of the best fights of the year. (side bar does anyone know when clay guida will fight again that guy is always eciting.

Nobody mentioned Stevenson vs. Florian. I personally think that’s going to be one hell of an interesting fight.
