In context, UFC announced Rampage fighting Bader in Japan. Some people ITT would rather see Rampage fight Bonnar, citing his name value and their belief that the fight would be more exciting.

Your thoughts, Mr. Ocean?

chandler vs alvarez almost as good.

haven't been a busy week other than the good fights. No drama except for sonnen being sonnen.
maynard probably moving to AKA. Sonnen probably fighting munoz.

i guess you could google "Rick story beats up beginner" or something for a little bit of drama.

Your promotion of Chandler/Alvarez is getting a lil silly. I mean you posted about it the ENTIRE time UFC 139 was actually on live.

It was a great fight, but wasn't even better than Frankie vs Maynard 3.

whoever is in charge of bloody elbow should really, really turn off signatures for the comments. i spent all of 30 seconds trying to read some to find some laughs but immediately X'd out of the site because of the signatures. they are stone unnecessary garbage

alot of people disagree. Me included.

I realize it wasn't as "epic" as hendo vs shogun, but I'm not sure which i prefer looking back. Probably hendo shogun but not by a lot.
Chandler vs Alvarez is definitely up there as a foty candidate.

Ellenberger gets Diego Sanchez as a reward for thrashing Jake Shields. How does that make any sense?

everyone else pretty much booked already.

sanchez is still a name (lol bonnar discussion again).

I think if condit lose to koscheck and ellenberger beats sanchez he could very likely get the next titleshot, no? Assuming Nick Diaz don't do something crazy to upset gsp.
