terrible card but great main event.

I'm looking forward to that fight more than any ZUFFA fight in 2014. Just hope it doesn't suck (*knocks on wood)

WAR GM!

Maximo Blanco and Charles Oliveira on the prelims? WTF? Those guys are guaranteed entertainment and a hell of a lot more interesting to watch than Viscardi Andrade or Thiago Tavares.

Jacare and Silva have both got squash matches and should walk through their opponents, and the main event is gonna be epic. An MMA purists' dream matchup.

Mousasi/Machida is one of the most intriguing fights of the last few years to me. The rest of the card is mostly subpar.

I'm looking forward to this one.  A number of fights on here I want to see plus Mousasi vs. Machida.

I feel like Mousasi is underrated and a lot of people are counting him out. They look at his SF performances where he didn't look stellar within the unified rules. The Jardine fight (where he kicked Keith's ass and would've won for not that lame point deduction) and Mo (who he beat the hell out of from his guard). Casuals fans.

Mousasi is a sniper, and if Machida let's him get any ground then Lyoto is in big trouble. I think it will be very competitive but not an upset if Gegard wins. Honestly, I think he's going to have Machida shooting for takedowns. Machida is good but if you take a guy who can pressure him, like Shogun and Rampage, and not run in carelessly (Bader), then he has a bit of trouble.

It's crazy how underrated the guy still is. I skimmed over the pro's picks and I think everyone I read picked Machida except Rashad Evans.

WAR DREAMCATHER!

Like my sig says, haters gonna hate. Mousasi is one of the best fighters in the world. No bullshit draw against Jardine changes that nor would a potential loss in this fight change that as Machida is still one of the best. I just have a feeling Mousasi is going to win spectacularly. He's one of the smartest fighters in the game and knows how to pick his spots in a match. We've already seen Machida get broken on several occasions. Mousasi's timing and overall game have the potential to break Machida.

I'll be watching. I think Jacare is rightfully a very heavy favorite in his fight. Machida vs Mousasi will be intriguing. I expect Machida to win, but I'm not really heavy on him in terms of wagering. I think they'll make it past the 3½ rounds mark either way though.

Some good fights tonight.  Looking forward to it.

Decision Fighting Championships strikes again. So far 6 fights, 6 decisions.

yeah, awful card so far.

LOL guess I'm glad Prelims aren't televised haha main on now or soon LOL fuck NASCAR

I'd rather rewatch that Mach Sakurai sextape I have on my hard drive than continue to endure these shitass prelims

this event is like a souljah boy song, it stank//////\\\\\\

so far this card is like watching fly's fuck 

Here come the only 3 fights on the card I care to watch.

Next up, Kazushi Sakuraba disciple Takanori Sato vs BJJ standout Eric Silva. The war wages on.

WAR SATO.

Also, the fact that Sato is a late injury replacement for this fight is slightly reminiscent of when Sakuraba subbed for Hiromitsu Kanehara at Ultimate Japan.

Ominous?
