A lot of people have been complaining, but I’m stoked for this card. The two free prelims are both potential FOTN, and the rest of the card has fun matchups with a lot of big names. Not a huge card in terms of title implications, but should make for a very entertaining evening.

I am very interested and excited for this card.

i would absolutely be buying this card, if it weren’t for the fact that i’ll be sitting in front of tv for the earlier part of the day, watching the cup. gonna need to get the hell out of the house come fight time.

I cant wait for this fight, I think its going to be a war similar to Chuck vs Wanderlei and Rich vs Wanderlei.

I love that they actually did a stare down,

but this one still had to be shopped to show a tiny bit of hostility…

I wonder.......

Will Rich have a black eye before the fight as usual?

Never engage in a battle of wits with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

by kastnet on Jun 11, 2010 4:48 PM EDT reply actions  

Rich never has black eyes

That’s just his skin. The skin around his eyes is always black/purple, when it dies and sheds another layer of black/purple skin replaces it.

by Electro Boy on Jun 11, 2010 6:01 PM EDT reply actions  

Rich’s eyes are perma-black because of a couple Spider attacks.

but will probably lose to Danzig. I think if Danzig wins a fight vs. Stout would be good.

Wiman looked kinda soft

and sometimes I wonder if the official just gives it to them when they’re close.

Every time they take off their undies they drop a pound, that seems odd.

by Electro Boy on Jun 11, 2010 7:25 PM EDT reply actions  

I hear you..

Some dipshit that I work with that bets on every sport asked me if he should go with Barry or Filipovic. I told him it depends on which Cro Cop shows up. He then responded to me saying that he didn’t see Cro Cop on the betting line. Fucking nimtard.

I think 235 is the most Cro Cop has ever weighed for a fight…

by Donk696 on Jun 11, 2010 7:28 PM EDT reply actions  

Yeah that seemed big

that’s probably not a good thing.

I know he’s hit 230 before, not sure how much higher though.

by Electro Boy on Jun 11, 2010 7:29 PM EDT up reply actions  

He looked as lean as usual, so I don’t think he got up to 235 eating cheeseburgers.

I'll always pay to see a card with P. Thiago on it

He seems to calmly walk through the fighters that, on paper, should be kicking his ass. Discounting Fitch of course, but who cares about that guy?

Barry seems to of come in out of shape, going from weighing 230-235 coming into 248

Maybe

but he said he was eating rice and ketchup prior to his last fight.

Didn’t have enough money for food, got KO of the Night and Fight of the Night against Hardonk.

Even if his fight against Evensen and Hague he was still only weighing under 235

We'll have to wait and see

but he’s said he’s been struggling financially for years. Everyone’s light when you can’t afford food.
