I don't know bout anyone else,...
but this card looks great to me… I’m pretty much interested in every fight…
I'm not terribly interested in the main event
But overall it looks like a great card. Marquadt vs Maia and Jardine vs Silva are the two I’m really looking forward to seeing.
That spinning attack of death that Marquardt used to finish off Gouveia has had me stoked to see his next fight. And against Maia? SO AWESOME.

Vera and Munozzzz!
They both have been training with big nog.. so i guess that would help nog improve on his wrestling and help both filipinos tremendously. haha.
This card does look sick,but I really can’t myself caring about Silva vs Jardine Its pretty much all about Maia. Makes me wonder tho if he will get a shot anytime soon, I think Dana still has a bitter taste in his mouth from a previous BJJ expert who flopped into guard for 25 minutes.

![Chris Tuchscherer talks about the lack of answers he received from Oregon State Athletic Commission:
"I asked the doctor many times what would happen if I can't continue. 'Is it a no-contest? What happens here?' And the doctor and the ref couldn't tell me. They kept passing the buck on to each other out there, so no one could tell me what was going on."
About that time, Lesnar came cageside to check on Tuchscherer. The heavyweight champ first inquired on his training partner's health, at which time Tuchscherer told him he thought, "My [testicle] is up inside my body."
