After a month of not putting on a fight card (much to the enjoyment of my beloved girlfriend) the UFC is back and ready to dazzle us all with one of the most injury plagued fight cards in the history of forever.
Tito Ortiz will attempt to defy logic for the second time in a month by knocking off his second Top 10 Light Heavyweight in the same amount of time. His next potential victim is the man he went to a draw with at UFC 73 over four years ago, Rashad Evans. It is my firm belief that the winner of this fight will be next in line for a title shot, facing the winner of the Bones v. Rampage fight.
In the co-main event, Vitor Belfort will attempt to come back from his foot fetish killing knockout at the hands of Anderson Silva by taking out the most stunning man on earth, Yoshihiro Akiyama. Sexyama is on a two fight skid and although all 3 of his UFC fights have earned Fight Of The Night honors, he finds himself on the verge of being cut.
So let's all dust off our brains and get our predictions and wagers in (especially those of us who are getting slaughtered by Mania) and see who has the wisdom to be the best.
