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.

Pretty decent night of fights. It sucks Wand lost but it looked like he gassed out after trying to finish Rich in the 2nd. Still a decent fight though.

Haha, I see that Anik has gotten himself suspended again. Damn Greg, how many chances are you gonna give that fool?

UFC 147 turned out to be an awesome card!!!  Great fights all night long, and  great energy from the crowd.  A couple of nice come back fights, including an awesome main event.  Lots of Nut shots tonight, but other than that, WOW!  That was fun to watch.

Glad I got this PPV. Franklin and Wanderlei both looked great. Franklin looked the best he has in years, maybe the best he's ever looked.
