Decided to make this the UFC 147 discussion thread anyway, might as well.


The original intention though was to talk about the 2000th fight in UFC history, scheduled to be between Yuri Alcantara and Hacran Dias. What a milestone, the sport's come pretty far.

Goldberg should have been told that Macapa is normally a LW when he fights, lol.

Teixeira is from Macapá, a reaaally distant city in Brazil, in the north region, the forest area. that's why he looks a little like an native brazilian indian.

If this Macapa showed up he would have beat Rodrigo Damm when they fought in the house.

Props to Rogan for bringing up Igor Vovchanchyn. One of my favorite fighters of all time that sadly doesn't get mentioned too much anymore.

Wolverine should win that fight.  Won't be surprised by another Draw though with these judges.
