Sonnen on Rogan podcast was really solid btw. Chael is pretty interesting out of character

Heavyweight Championship bout: Junior dos Santos (c) vs. Frank Mir
Heavyweight bout: Cain Velasquez vs. Antonio Silva
Heavyweight bout: Roy Nelson vs. Dave Herman
Heavyweight bout: Stipe Miočić vs. Shane del Rosario
Heavyweight bout: Mark Hunt vs. Stefan Struve

Featherweight bout: Diego Brandao vs. Darren Elkins
Lightweight bout: Edson Barboza vs. Jamie Varner

What do you do with Volkmann if he wins? That'd be 6 wins in the UFC in a row. I know he's a nutjob and decision machine and UFC brass is probably just waiting for him to slip.

But do guys with 6 wins in a row ever get ignored? What Top 10 or Top 5 LW does he get if he beats Sass?

Great. We'll get to see BJ Penn humped by Koscheck for 3 rounds and have him retire again.

Dude, the main event was sick (outstanding card overall) but if Maldonado and Igor don't get something for their fight then there's no justice in this world. That was a way better back and forth than KZ/DP.

Eric Gant ‏@TheEgant
@danawhite @lorenzofertitta Please take care of the 205ers too. That was also a fantastic fight!

15 May Dana White ‏@danawhite
@TheEgant @lorenzofertitta we will for sure

[DC11GTR]

I think so. First time in awhile that I watched the entire FB prelims without FF'ing through a ton.

[KPowers]

I missed all the prelims.

bj declined the fight today . which is great news .

[Phresh]

Great news that Dana is taking care of Fabio and Igor. Man that fight was sick! No chance this card was boring. Amir's fight was whatever (although Meltaonin was kicking in around then), but the rest were sick!

[caught_clean]

Yea not to mention Fabio landed 164 punches to like 60 or something and got robbed.

[Provolone]

So sick Hunt out. I was so huge on Struve over Hunt, he was a stalwart in so many of my parlays. Wtf Johnson could be Struve/ Browne II. Hopefully somebody is a huge favorite.

[Phresh]

Oh yeah, Fabio absolutely got jobbed. LOL 30-27. What the ****?

[ForumWithdrawal]

RIP Struve if he gets pushed up against the cage. Uppercut his head into the third level seats.
