[SHOGUN]

Do or die fight for Shogun (and Penn to a lesser extent). I just hope he doesn't go out there and brawl.

Bendo/Diaz is going to be so ill. I wonder if Diaz will shine in the spotlight.

Quote from Stun Gun...

Although Nate's ground game is advanced his takedown defense is very weak. When I fought him, I was really surprised how physically weak Nate Diaz was. I believe lightweight is the right weight class for him.

No matter how improved Diaz’s takedown defense is he won't be able to stop Henderson’s takedowns. Henderson will defend his belt for the second time as long as he doesn’t strike with Nate and goes for takedowns while maintaing top position."

[KINGOFOOTBALL]

I believe lightweight is the right weight class for him.

He is a lightweight ?

Nick was the same until he put on some weight. Maybe the Diaz' blossom late with the meat.

MOTIAVTED PENN is the most dangerous man in MMA, right above New Old Vitor and Broke Fitch

awesome card

[EmpireWF]

Anyone thinking Shogun & BJ are NOT being fed to the wolves?

[clovett]

Best card of the year. Hoping 209 takes the belt. But I forsee a wrestlefucking coming on by Bendo.

Anyone thinking Shogun & BJ are NOT being fed to the wolves?

I got the feeling they are doing to Shogun what they did to Ken Shamrock when he "fought" Rich Franklin.

[Liquidrob]

Would love a Penn win, RNC all day!

[EmpireWF]

Nate says if he wins the belt, Melendez may drop to 145.

[KINGOFOOTBALL]

I also want to see Denis Siver vs Nam Pham. I like both those guys.

[bdub]

I will jump for fucking joy if Nate beats Bendo
