A couple of notes:

- Tito Ortiz wore a shirt that read, "Dana is my bitch". Dana White was absent.
- Reljic slightly and intentionally headbutted Gouveia. Gouveia didn't quite know what to make of it.
- Penn kept telling Rogan: "I'm not going to stop, Joe."
- Sherk was booed mercilessly.
- Jardine and Wanderlei had a very respectful staredown.
- Sokoudjou and Nakamura had a heated staredown.
- Carwin and Kim are huge for their weightclass. Carwin is huge irrespective of weightclass.

Carwin looks like an absolute beast. And for those saying that he must be taking roids: look at the length of his arms, and the width of his shoulder bones (not just the muscle, but where the bone is visible through the muscle). He is an absolute and undeniable freak of nature. If I had his physiology, I’d fight for a living too.

I REALLY want to see his fight. I want to see ALL these fights. I’ll get to see NONE of them, as I’m picking up my wife from the airport 90 minutes after start time. Damnit.

HaHa did UFC.com edit out Tito’s shirt?

Good thing he’s off the juice. Not shredded at all anymore.

Carwin does look huge. Hopefully he finishes in spectacular fashion so they can show it during the main card.

Carwin is a big guy. I’m surprised that he didn’t hit 265 and stop cutting cause he used to fight at SHW. But maybe he trained and dieted a bunch of weight off. Good thing is he should be quicker now because in his highlight video he seemed a little muscle locked.

I've gotta say...

Kim is big for the weight. But I don’t think he looks as huge compared to Tan as everyone was saying he would be.

Tito should have about a 20 lb weight advantage at fight time. He’ll need every pound he can get..

What was that Penn started chugging immediately after making weight?

Sure looked like a BIG jug that’s for sure! Meanwhile Sherk had A tiny WATER bottle…
