I'm excited to see GSP, Lesnar, Huerta, Florian, and Maia all on the same card, regardless of how their fights go.
I second that... I think the Huerta/Florian matchup is a really good one as we finally get to see if Huerta is for real.
I don't know how you can't be excited about Lesnar/Herring... Lesnar could become a dominant HW so it's just exciting to see if he has improved from what was a mostly impressive UFC debut. And Herring is talking about how focused he is and how he's in the best shape of his life, so he's definitely not gonna lay down for Brock.
Maia/MacDonald could have some fireworks especially if Maia has to trade punches if he can't secure some takedowns. Maia could be something special though so we have another good fight here.
Fitch most likely will be destroyed, but I'm always in awe of the elite doing their thing whether its GSP, Fedor, BJ, Spider, etc. It's still fun to watch.
I'm hoping the Gusmao/Jones fight makes the televised card because it could be an explosive fight as well.
All in all I'm excited for this card and think it'll be a good show!
