Nice..
Although that asterisk is a bit disconcerting.

I've never heard of Oliveira
but he has two wins over someone named “Big Big”…that’s gotta boost him up the P4P rankings ;)

I was going to make a similar remark. Just another reason why Fight Finder, while a really useful tool, can’t really be considered a definitive source.
One of Big Big’s wins came against Paulinho Paulinho. That same card apparently also featured Pedro Pedro, Binha Binha, Edinaldo Edinaldo, Chicao Chicao, Carlos Carlos and Bam Bam.

Is that a quirk of Sherdogs system in that it needs a first and last name? If it was, then perhaps the Brazilian fighters that go by a single name have their names duplicated in the system.

good card but does anyone know why noguiera isn’t on this card, Affliction have really dropped the ball with him you have arguably the best LHW outside of the UFC with a name that will carry recognition amongst casual fans and they have buried him on two undercards

Everyone Discrediting Oliveira...
You guys should go watch Fancy Pants vs Tractor fight.
That was a real good scrap.

Yeah, no shame losing to a future champ like Fancy Pants, and on a cut no less.
This should be a sick fight.

Absolutely!
Yeah man. You guys should post that fight up. That was great. I tried putting a link but my post got deleted… =D

![UFN 21 Preview: Takanori Gomi Says He Will KO Kenny Florian
"I'm preparing well and I will not have problems adapting to the octagon. Mr. Florian is a fighter with good skills, one of the best of its kind in the UFC. It is a good opponent for a good start. I make a good fight for the public and start a successful outcome."
"Today, all MMA practitioners know how to fight a little of everything. I know he is a dangerous fighter with a good game on the floor... [I will win] By knockout in the 1st round!"
"Since I entered the UFC, always made clear that the belt is my goal. I will get this title for the Japanese, its what we all want... [BJ Penn] is a tremendous fighter. But I know my ability and I know I'm the right person to cause problems him in the UFC. I am patient and will wait for my chance."
