I'm not ruling out Leites entirely, because if Travis Lutter was able to get Silva down/mounted as easily as he did, I don't see how Leites would have a hard time doing it as well. But my bet is still on Silva (http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/love/love0019.gif)

I'd like to see Chuck win, final round. Essentially, just to shut everyone up. Although I like Shogun, and I'd like for him to stay in the UFC.

And I'm eager to see Cantwell fight again. I like that guy a lot.

Im so pumped! This is going to be a good one.

Agreed. We just spent roughly 120 dollars at the liquor store. So this should be a good night.

Im on my way! What did you get? Im just going to be a jew and watch it streamed online.

Birra Moretti, Stella Artois, a sickly amount of Steel Reserve, and a 6 bottle case of Pearl Vodka. You're welcome to help.

Oh god, Im actually drinking sone Tang out of a Stella Glass right now!

Never heard of Birra, but I like to get down with some steel reserve every now and again. Good choices.

Do try. It's delicious.

Never seen it, but i have an awful habit of buying a 6 of stella, hoegaarden, or a hefenweizen, then a 6 pack of something ive never seen of or heard. Ive found many special gems that are unknown to most. This will be my special gem this time around if they have it here! Thanks for the recommendation.

I cant wait for the fights tonight.

Anderson Silva Vs. Thales Leites

Chuck Liddell Vs. Mauricio Rua

Krzysztof Soszynski Vs. Brian Stann

Cheick Kongo Vs. Antoni Hardonk

Steve Cantwell Vs. Luiz Cane

David Loiseau Vs. Ed Herman

Im more excited to see the shogun - liddell fight than the silva fight. I cant wait for this though, I hope Kongo puts on a good show tonight and im ammmmped up to see David Loiseau back fighting.

Ive been pondering this for weeks.

Im going to have to go with Leites on this one.
If he dont get pounded at the beginning, I think he can take it to the ground and finish it.

I understand that Thales has a world class ground game. But Silva is no slouch there either, he has great jiu jitsu as well. His long limbs are always a danger if you're in his guard. He can put you in a triangle, or use his legs to roll you and arm bar. Im really excited for the fight though.

I know man 2 hours left. I have no idea which way it will go.

sneak this in right fast

I like underdogs...Im a Bills fan.

Worst UFC ever, the best part was when my girl got home with a 12er of Stella!! (EDGE ha ha)

yea man, pretty bunk fights. The stout - wiman fight was entertaining and kongo put on a clinic but it was kinda unimpressive.

Cant believe the same thing happened to Lidell eh? Crazy!
Main event was awful, I missed the chick fights, but sounds like they were better.

I really dont know whether that'll be his last fight or not. He seemed really let down after the fight. He's putting in the effort to train harder than he has before, but I think he knows he just doesnt have it anymore and he's gonna accept that.

Its horrible. He is not washed up! He is a great fighter, but the time must come. Brett Favre comes to mind immediately. How can one give up there love when they cannot physically compete anymore. I think Dana should give him a few more easy fights then send him on his way on a good note, not like this.

The fact is that Liddell is getting old.
He'll have to quit sometime soon.

I think Liddell should retire. He had a great career. he's 1-4 in his last 5 and 3 of them were KO's. He won the title, defended it 4 times and beat a who's-who list of opponents. Every fighter wants to go out on top and hopefully with a belt but sometimes you just need to realize when your time has come.

What's up with UFC shitting on Silva? These guys are saying that it was his worst fight ever, that he fought like shit, and saying that he "didn't put on a good show"
That's what I hate about UFC. Fake ass motherfuckers. It's not even about fighting anymore. It's all about money.

Yeah the newer UFC has gotten pretty lame, well actually about the last 80 of them. Thalas was being a pussy the entire fight and Silva made him look like a chump, I would have done the same thing If I were defending my title, yet again.

They can say what they want about Silva.

His record is what shows his talent.

What bothered me about Silva in that fight was that he could have ended that fight at will, whenever he wanted to. But he never tried.

He won the fight, unanimous desicion, and set the record. Enough said. Fighting doesn't need style points.

I'm so glad I didn't order this.

The thing is, though, he's DEFENDING his championship.
He's not gonna risk it by running in at the opposing fighter.

He didnt need to run in at him. He could have finished that fight at any time..Thales' standup was a joke compared to Anderson. GSP is always defending his belt, do you see him fighting like Anderson did on saturday night? Think about the BJ Penn fight...he brought it to him the entire fight. Thats a champion.

The Silva fight was terribly boring. I'm not attacking Silva's ability, I'm just saying the match sucked.

I would probably get in "trouble" for making a new thread it seems like. So, this is totally unrelated to UFC97- but I guess related to fighting and events. Here's my question:

Pacquiao fights Hatton tonight on PPV- $49.99. I'm looking for something a little... cheaper? Does anybody know any sites where this will be played/streamed online for free? Would greatly appreciate it if you do!
