Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 425 Points   |   Tied for 121st

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.

To me it's 10-9 for Rich, but against Wanderlei points rarely matter.

Take A Moment

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 4 Perfect, 400 Points   |   Tied for 190th

For all of your excellent and dedicated MMA fans that didn't write this pay per view off as garbage just because there weren't enough names in it. For those of you that really love the sport and not just the names.

Take a moment and look at the two legends in the octagon right now, and think about all of their accomplishments and everything they have done to make our favorite sport what it is today.

I love both of these guys for what they've done.

My Cincinnati native Franklin, I'm pulling for you.
Wandy, what an excellent career and will to continue.

I hope this fight is as epic as we all know its about to be.
