Way to go Jon Jones
A possible Wanderlei Silva vs. Chael Sonnen replacement fight.

Good names to fill the slots, but bad fight for Brazilian fans. Wand will not be able to stop the takedowns. And Brazil will probably riot if Chael wins.Quote:

With the amount of trash that Chael has talked, it'd be unwise to have him go out there and beat one of their heroes. No offense to Wand, he's one of my favorite fighters ever, but Chael would wrestle hump fairly easily.Quote:

I was about to post silva vs Bonnar. I literally said what the fuck out loud. I'm pretty excited but not at all what I expected. Bonnar is a mans man, if he makes it a war he has a chance.
When it comes down to it both these guys are down to throw down. I'm actually interested in thus one.Quote:

I hope Bonnar doesn't try to go all Chael Sonnen and use his size advantage.
Glad Nog is on the card. Hope he taps Herman so he can shut up about BJJ not working.
I like this fight it could be fun to watch. Bonnar has stepped up his game latly but one of his recent wins was via Lnp so hopefully he doesnt go that route. Main event is 3 rounds. I wish it was non title 5 because I could see it potentially going dec. silva finishes most of the time but I just have a wierd feeling it might go the distance. Bonnar is a warrior
