undisclosed injury at this point, but the fight with Koch is postponed. faber's fight has been bumped to the main event.

I'm barely interested enough to hit the bar to watch it, I can't imagine the type of person that would consider buying it.

Such a shame, it started out as such a big event.

I like it live. FX did a great job with it. But Faber and Cruz are just boring. Don't care for either. Cruz is boring to watch fight and worse to watch coach. Faber annoys me.

Going live had it's problems, but TUF won't get back to what it used to be if it's not on another night.

Dana said FX promised to put it on Tues or Wed if next season doesn't gather better ratings.

I think that was FX's idea in order to boost ratings for Friday night.

Didn't work.

yeah i'd like to see this fight, but in reality i don't think the zombie poses much of a threat to aldo. i could definitely see the UFC pulling koch for this fight though since nobody really even knows who the hell koch is.

In response to Reply # 16


  

          

Given that the Koch fight isn't scheduled at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised if he got pulled in favor of Aldo. Koch was only given the fight because Hioki turned it down and now that Hioki is out of the title picture, Aldo has the best case for getting a shot.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

its not even mentioned at all in the lead up for this fight. to me that was the most significant part of the first fight. i really believe an injured rib affected his movement and, especially, takedown defense. shit, a bad rib affects your boxing too. i've had bruised ribs before as well as strained the intercostals and i will tell you that it sucks just to breath let alone fight an mma match.

hopefully anderson is fully healthy and puts a beating on chael.

Sonnen almost beating a perfectly healthy Silva makes him seem like more of a threat, I'm not surprised the UFC isn't mentioning it.
