WOW, other then the 2 big fights, this card is an absolute joke. 7 of the 9 fights belong on the undercard of a UFN or TUF finale. Very dissapointed in this card.

Yeah, the card doesn't look too appealing.
I am interested though in the Clementi/Guillard fight considering the bad blood.

There were supposed to be so many good fights, but they took them off.

Me to, that radio interview where they were talking smack was epic. If they don't show that fight I'll be mad. |

I guess they figured with Chuck/Wandy on there, that they could still sell good numbers with this card without using up too many good fights on it.

While this card has a lot of fights I'm not interested in (the majority), I'm really excited about Wanderlei/Liddell; it's been years in the making, and I know it'll be amazing. I'm glad it's finally happening.
And the Serra/Hughes fight is another I'm looking forward to.
Rich Clementi vs. Melvin Guillard could be a good one too, and I'd like to see how DeSouza does. But the rest, I don't really care about.
I won't complain now, because any fight can turn out to be good, and the undercard can still possibly have some exciting fights after all. I'll just wait and see how things go.

Don't jinx it. If you mention it enough times, Chuck will get injured and "LISTER!!!! RADEV!!!" will be the main event.

It is unbelievable that a fight between a guy who got ko'ed in 20 secs by a mediocre MW against someone who has been out of his game for a hell of a long time would make it to a UFC card. This should be an under-under-under card in a UFC night event. |

Meh, only really interested by these fights.
Will be nice to see Gamburyan and Carneiro again but the match-ups dont excite me too much. |

So this is like 4-5 times in a row now they put up a great main event with a crappy card. Well, no more suport for UFC. Time to start DL the shows outside theire sites.
Tired of this crap now.

Gah, I think I might be looking forward to 78 more than this card. At least 78 has some compelling match ups on the undercard.

I think the first 2 are the only ones worth watching. But the one with Chuck Liddel may even be horrible considering the fact he lost 2 straight fights, his confidence might be a little down

Well they definitely have the most talent. Their matchmaking can be unappealing at times(this card being a good example) but it is smart business.
