I think 134 looks to be very exciting. We get to find out more about "the hybrid" Brendan Schaub when he takes on Nogueria. Forrest/Shogun is going to be a hell of a war. Silva/Okami I believe this will be a good fight and it will be closer then people think. Just wondering everyone's thought on this card as a whole?

Shogun with a fight right after his last one and not a year layoff and back with Rafael Cordeiro is gonna make Griffin run out of the octagon again!

I have a bad feeling Nogueira/Schaub is going to end the same way as Nogueira/Velasquez... And I hate Schaub.

It sucks seeing him beat all the legends... Plus he's kind of overrated since Nelson was able to turn his lights out, and Nelson is doing terribly right now...

Nelson does have some heavy hands...The UFC gives him the fights he just accepts them...He's on the radio from time to time here in Colorado and his attitude is awesome and seems like a guy who just wants to train and fight and work his way up in the UFC! I'd love Schaub/Nelson 2 so Brendan could get the W

I definatly think Schaub will get the KO Schaub has good hands and I think it will look a lot like the Mir fight

Now that Swick is out I lost a little bit of steam on 134, but it's always exciting to see Anderson fight.

i dont think we'll learn anything from the schaub vs nog fight...as long as schaub doesnt go to the ground, he should win via ko or easy decision..just to fast.
but the brazilian fans will not go home upset, as silva will destroy okami

@jersey Unless Silva forgets the rules again and decides to upkick Okami while he's down. LOL but seriously your prediction of Anderson destroying Okami I think is a little extreme. Okami has great takedowns which is Silva's achilles and Okami also has great sub defense. If Yushin tries to stand with Silva then I would agree he would get destroyed but this fight will most likely take place on the ground.

@p4pgoat, I agree with everything you said. I'm picking Okami!

I hope Okami wins too. My real wish for this fight is that Okami comes to fight Silva which I think he will. So many guys get beat before the fight even starts because they get all caught up in Silva prancing around and throwing his arms around. If Okami brings the fight to Silva the brazilian crowd could be very sad by the end of the night.

@p4p, I agree, Chael Sonnen didn't feel beaten when he walked in, and he did really great for 4 1/2 rounds! When people are less intimidated by Silva, they do better! Plus Okami's wrestling is very good, which can definitely give Silva trouble!
