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.

@Brazilian_Jitz A lot of people have short memories when it comes to fights. I'm guilty of it at times.

@****tyJones

Its not that people have short memories, people just dont know how to be impartial. As well, people say "this fight will go to the distance",  when they should be saying, "because this guy has an iron chin, I think this fight goes the distance" there is a massive difference.

One is elitist, and the other is just observational and opinion.

I love this avatar so much. It might very well be better than the Tim & Eric one that won the P4P AV Grand Prix for me back in January.

@Brazilainajiztz I always take people speaking in definite terms with a grain of salt, seeing as how they have no more of an ability to predict the future than anyone else on earth does, but it is a bit irritating when others talk about something beforehand as iron clad fact. Just remember that everything I say is always an opinion, or just some stupid ramblings. War cheese wheels!

card was great! i hope erick silva comes back stronger. and i NEED a spider knows shirt asap.
as for this bandwagon talk, i refuse to jump on a fitch bandwagon. i'll give him credit, he looked great in that fight, but he's made me go through some hard to watch fights.

I have no sour g****s (though the guys in first and second had Marcello, grrr!) but reading the play by play it sounds like Madadi dominated the first two? I missed the facebook fights, just curious how blatant of a robbery that was.

@Mino, it was a close fight but it was obvious to everyone but the judges that Madadi won

Ok, thanks for the recap. I guess I'm annoyed that I missed the pick, but I guess I like Marcello, so oh well. Did he atleast go for takedowns in this fight or did he stand there with his chin up and occasionally throw punches? I really wish he'd take a lesson from Maia and remember his roots.

Madadi was the one that actually landed a few takedowns but for the most part the fight was on the feet

The fact of the matter is that when it's THAT close you can't complain, none of them was good enough to put it beyond doubt so it can go either way ...

Anderson really was weeping...and to think what he did only like 15-20 minutes later, must've been tough for him to be ready so quick.
