Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 1171st

With a stacked card already(Aldo vs Koch,Belcher vs Belfort,Rampage vs Teixeira,Silva vs Fitch are the big ones)Big Nog has been retweeting people who say they want him on UFC 153.So this awesome card may be getting more awesome in the near future.

Here's one:

@danawhite The UFC Rio already has one of the best card in years! But please put on @Minotauromma in the event!

Retweeted by Rodrigo Nogueira

If the UFC wants to makeup for UFC 149 now is the time.Add more great fights to the card.Any ideas for an opponent?Although none of this is official at the moment I'm excited for him to get back in the cage.In Brazil to.Last time he was there Schaub went night night.

Cash, can you do all of Tapology a favor and change your AV back to BJ Penn with the TTT logo in the corner? It just doesn't feel right.

This card is amazing. The TUF Brasil guys delivered last time and I'm sure they will again. Drinaldo! I love this guy, he will be a massive LW which is good because he's fighting Tibau.

Def one of the best cards in a while.  I think a lot of us will be putting this event at #1 of the year if it lives up to it's paper hype.

maybe nog could be the one to pull the fight out of big Bob Sapp. No, I think he would tap to strikes in the 1st. It's SAPP TIME baby!!!

Nice card though, solid fights all the way down to the prelims. Aldo is my favorite.

If Nog fights anyone at 153 I would hope for Kongo.
