Two hours, three fights, two title shots on the line on basic cable. Stakes don't get much higher than this.

MAIN CARD (FOX)

Phil Davis vs. Rashad Evans
Michael Bisping vs. Chael Sonnen
Demian Maia vs. Chris Weidman

PRELIMINARY CARD (FUEL TV)

Johnny Bedford vs. Mitch Gagnon
Evan Dunham vs. Nik Lentz
Michael Johnson vs. Shane Roller
Jon Olav Einemo vs. Mike Russow
George Roop vs. Cub Swanson
Charles Oliveira vs. Eric Wisely
Joey Beltran vs. Lavar Johnson
Chris Camozzi vs. Dustin Jacoby
 
The Gagnon/Bedford match has been cancelled....Gagnon can't get a visa to enter the States. Bedford's being given his show money nevertheless.

In its place, Beltran/Johnson moves up to Fuel, and only Jacoby/Camozzi remains on Facebook
 
Looking forward to this. Cheering for Sonnen, but don't see either making a dent on the champ(even though I really would be content if either would take his title).

Which champ? Sonnen says he isn't fighting Silva if he wins (and assuming he isn't going to...which who knows?) which champ are you referring to?

I see Sonnen capable of making huge strides against the likes of Jon Jones and Silva again. I can even see him taking a round or two from GSP if they were to fight.
 
Did he say he wouldn't fight Silva or wouldn't get a shot at Silva even if he won? Thought I heard something from Dana that if Sonnen did win he would be fighting Silva? Hard to keep up with all the tweets and quotes back and forth. I may have fallen out of the loop some on this.
 
Also do you think he could cut to 170? Or if he were to fight GSP would it have to be a catchweight fight.
At 205 against Jon Jones could be a fun fight though, I think that would be quite interesting.

More a casual fan than anything, no expert on any of the fighters, just like to enjoy the conversation and fights. But would love to see someone take the title from Silva with a nice, clean victory.
 
Sonnen can't cut to 170lbs, he used to fight at 205lbs and was mediocre at best, funny thing he was an average fighter until he started doing the testosterone replacement therapy, Jon Jones would straight murk Sonnen, I would love to see that fight, no chance that happens though. He'll fight Silva again (should he win), in Brazil, and we'll see what happens.
 
Everyone made weight. Bisping came out to a chorus of boos, flipped off the crowd and said f-you to those in attendance. Mr. Wonderful came out in his old Penn State wrestling singlet. Good stuff. It's time for some fights :beer:.

Looking at some internet scoring, and it looks as though this could be a contested decision should it make it. Great first two rounds.
