***The Official UFC 140 Thread***
Surprised I haven't seen this posted yet so here it goes.
Since I'm attending tonights event, I'm pretty psyched for it. We have a party bus loaded to the t!ts with booze taking us to the ACC where we may stay stay in the parking lot and get tuned up before heading in. After the scraps we get back on the bus which takes us to a private after party attended by the fighters and those involved in the event. Hopefully I'll have some sweet pics for tomorrow. The lineup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_140 Preliminary card (Facebook) Lightweight bout: Mitch Clarke vs. John Cholish Welterweight bout: Rich Attonito vs. Jake Hecht Lightweight bout: Mark Bocek vs. Nik Lentz Preliminary card (televised) Bantamweight bout: Yves Jabouin vs. Walel Watson Catchweight (158.5lb) bout: John Makdessi vs. Dennis Hallman Middleweight bout: Jared Hamman vs. Constantinos Philippou Light Heavyweight bout: Krzysztof Soszynski vs. Igor Pokrajac Main card Featherweight bout: Mark Hominick vs. Chan Sung Jung Welterweight bout: Claude Patrick vs. Brian Ebersole Light Heavyweight bout: Tito Ortiz vs. Antônio Rogério Nogueira Heavyweight bout: Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Frank Mir Light Heavyweight Championship bout: Jon Jones (c) vs. Lyoto Machida Better be some good ol' fashioned knuckle sandwiches. ![]() |

Helluva comeback. Too bad for big Nog, that will take some time to heal.

Everyone loses. I think Jones is going to be in GSP and Silva territory. But Matt Hughes said something one time that I really think applies perfectly to MMA. He said, if you aren't losing, then you aren't fighting the right people. |

Matt Hughes has taken one to many shots to the head.

Bones proved tonight he can take a punch. While I supported Lyoto, I am excited by the development Jones showed in this fight, battling past adversity and mixing up his game plan. His OHL he landed to set up his football-grip choke was due to him throwing out of his southpaw stance. Remarkable that someone with as limited training as him can catch an excellent striker as Lyoto like that in his non-power stance. While I think that both Rashad and Hendo pose threats to Jones, he has shown a rapid development unheard of in MMA. Excited to see where he goes from here.
