Big step up for Brown.

I dunno…Almeida isn’t the best at standup. I’d put the odds on him at -210 though.

I’ve got a lot of time for Brown, should be a great fight.

by brad23 on Jan 7, 2010 5:49 PM EST reply actions  

Yes!

I was afraid they weren’t ever going to let him advance despite his win streak…. big dog might be good, but i’m confident luke will smash him.

Record?

only took 8 comments to get to a luke brown joke….

by Tonley on Jan 7, 2010 5:51 PM EST up reply actions  

i love the resemblence…. and before i was on bloodyelbow (i’m fairlyyy new) i loved brown

by cagefightonacid on Jan 7, 2010 5:55 PM EST up reply actions  

wow

i always thought he looked like him, but i never said anything, i didnt know it was an ongoing joke. It is obviously true then, its not just me! haha

by bluejitz on Jan 7, 2010 5:55 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah…i’ve been thinking the same thing.

by Matthew Roth on Jan 7, 2010 6:01 PM EST up reply actions  

Are you kidding? I’ve seen it as the first post in Matt Brown threads.

Giving Shogun his props. I had the fight 48-47 Machida but Shogun put up a monumental performance and I am honored to have seen it in person.

Your last prediction for yourself went well. Hopefully this one follows suit. Also, Rec’d no matter how many times this joke is used

This is the funniest group of relies. First time I’ve checked a Matt Brown post but I’m dying.

Awesome, awesome fight. I’ve got Almeida, but Luke won’t make it easy.

anyone know matt's height?

im thinking over 6’1. Fight finder has him at 5’7 which is obviously wrong.

by bluejitz on Jan 7, 2010 6:27 PM EST reply actions  

Wikipedia has it at 6’0…take it how you want to…it’s wikipedia

by Matthew Roth on Jan 7, 2010 6:29 PM EST up reply actions  

That’s accurate.

I'm going with Almeida to win this

I am a huge Matt Brown fan, and I think that he will put up a hell of a fight and could win it, but I have to favor Almeida to take this even more. I do wonder whether Almeida cutting to 170 will affect him or not. Brown has the advantage with aggression, heart, and probably standup, while Almeida has the advantage in wrestling and BJJ. Brown never has a boring fight even when he has taken fights on short notice. However, I can see Almeida taking Brown down and either submitting Brown or controlling him for three rounds similar to how Almeida beat Grove.

by chrisbboy82 on Jan 7, 2010 8:26 PM EST reply actions  

I’ve said this before, but I think Almeida is going to be a force at 170. He’ll be one of the biggest welterweights in the division.

by goodbones on Jan 7, 2010 10:51 PM EST reply actions  

Matt Brown by multiple fists in Almeida’s face.

by swells2048 on Jan 7, 2010 11:16 PM EST reply actions  

now says UFC 112

is this a typo or has there been news released moving it to UFC 112 instead of 111?
