I'd like to hear your thoughts on this card.
I had a discussion with a friend and a member of the Mexican MMA media over the weekend about the lack of quality of this card in terms of talent and not being 'stacked', especially with the UFC filling the card and prelims with local talent that we used to watch here for $10 in local shows and are not UFC-level fighters. They argued that it was great and this is the way it should be done.
There are only 7 fights officially announced, the rest of the 3-4 fights that are missing will be TUF Latin America matches with the guys that were eliminated from the show.
We all know this is how the UFC operates as of late, but when Dana said 'we're going to mexico with a bang', I expected something different/better than the usual watered down cards.
I do think it is a fun card, the Lauzon-Sanchez should be fun, but definitely the card is not a 'bang' or anything special, especially for a PPV that is opening a new market such as Mexico.
So, what do you think? Do you think this card is stacked?

Can't wait for Cain/Werdum, Ellenburger is always awesome, Lauzon vs Sanchez is great and Lamas vs Bermudez should be sick too.

@slam I'm with you on that, The main card is pretty good. I guess I'm just not pleased that half the card is TUF fillers that we're used to watching here but now re-branded as UFC.

Diego Sanchez is injured and requires surgery, he is out of UFC 180.

Just an anecdotal observation, and the presence of other Mexican fighters on the card may make some difference, but without Velasquez, the Mexican-American who is heavyweight champ, my guess is the event won't be a big success. It might sell enough to make money, but with Cain it probably would have been huge.
