The other 2 fights rumoured on the card are
Zenko v Wolff (fuck yeah, i luv me some Zenko)
Jim Miller v Mac Danzig (Danzig is gonna get the chop)

Honestly, this card is just rediculous. + it also markets to the asian market with Dong, Zenko and Sexyama on the card, + they are all great fighters

Added Thanks.

[Sinister]

Does he really need to be referred to as "Sexyama" for this?

[XitUp]

Erm, it is his name...

[MJB23]

Does he really need to be referred to as "Sexyama" for this?

Yes, yes he does.

I'm pumped for Sexyama, Jones, and to watch Alves lose.

[Malky]

I can not wait for this event. I really want to see must of these fights so hopefully there are some really early finishes

[Wise]

Theirs only like 2 fights on this card that I dont really care about. Seriously cannot wait for this one.

Will of course be rooting for my boy Hendo to beat Bisping but I dont make predictions when it comes to Dangerous Dan.

[Kingofkings]

Going to be a great event.....but 9-3 Mir over Lesnar? Seriously?

[JT42]

Man I wish I was going to this, even with nosebleeds! SOOOOOOOO many amazing matches.

I think I would rank my excitement like this:
Akiyama's debut
GSP/Alves
Hendo!!!!!!!!/Bisping
Lesnar/Mir
Jon Jones
Stun Gun
Fitch
CB
Zenko
Miller/Danzig

[steph05050]

MUR!!!!

[Wise]

Im actually still on the fence on who Im taking in this fight. Im leaning towards Brock though.

[Suizida]

Im really really amped to see Zenko and Stun gun, i really really like em.

If GSP was so god damn amazing i would be way more excited for the GSP v Alvez fight. I know stylistacally that this fight is actually pretty good for GSP, but GSP doesn't care, he just does whatever the fuck he wants.

Im excited for Jones also, he is fun to watch.

O, and pretty excited to see Bisping shock the world

[Suizida]

Sorry to double post, but i was wrong about Zenko, he is fighting wolff on UFC 98

[Rabid]

Great card, I wonder if it will be an extended PPV event or if it will run the regular amount of time? I understand it is UFC 100 and it should be a celebration, but if the PPV event is a standard length it looks like alot of good fights will be un-aired that night. I would have prefered they kept a few of these fights for main card fights at UFC 101/102 etc.

[Brad.Taschuk]

Great card, I wonder if it will be an extended PPV event or if it will run the regular amount of time?

I was wondering the same thing. They need to go all PRIDE style for this event in terms of showing the entire card. And even though I realize that Vegas is their home, a bigger venue would've been nice too because then they could have a stage and make a huge production out of it.

Oh, also if they could hold it in Japan, in a ring, with knees to downed opponents and a 10-minute first round it would be better.

Still pumped for this card though.

Does he really need to be referred to as "Sexyama" for this?

Is that a serious question? Of course he does.

[PopsJD]

"Sexyama"? It is what it is....so yes.

Man I'm working so hard to get out to Vegas for this card. In addition to the event, there's supposed to be a massive UFC fan expo Thursday and Friday. Tons of signings, seminars, vendors, etc.

Oh yeah. Saw Mir at the recent Chicago WEC event. He BETTER kick Lesnar's a$$ because he is talking some major, major smack.

[cplmac]

Damn this is an amazing card, I can't wait! No surprise I've got Brock avenging his only loss in a lopsided borderline criminal beatdown. It will be interesting to see how he handles the butterflies fighting the only guy who beat him, will he be overly cautious or will he be overly aggressive or will he fight a sound gameplan like he did against Randy? Not sure I see him losing in any of those circumstances anyhow, but these guys are both dangerous. GSP/Alvez, Fitch, Akiyama, Miller, Danzig, there isn't a bad fight on paper in the entire card. Of course we all know the way a card looks is no kind of guarantee on what you will see. Some really crappy looking cards have been incredible and some really great cards have been less than impressive. I'm taking GSP, Akiyama, Hendo, Kim, Dolloway, Zenko and Miller. Wow, just picking the winners really puts the talent on this card in perspective...

[Negative2]

This card is gonna be off the hook. I am interested in every fight except for Cockblock Dollaway. He can eat a bag of smashed ones for all I care.

[Meshuggeth]

Okami should fight the winner of Henderson/Bisping to be next in line after the winner of Maia/Marquardt.

[JT42]

Okami should fight the winner of Henderson/Bisping to be next in line after the winner of Maia/Marquardt.

Definitely how it SHOULD be but they continue to screw Okami any way they can so I suppose we will just have to wait and see how things unfold.

[Brockimoth]

How most people have mir winning this is pretty ridiculous haha

This prelim card looks better than some main cards.

PS I put 4000 on Lesnar in the Vbookie.

[steph05050]

just a reminder to all this link
http://www.ufc.com/multicast/

will show weigh ins live, locker rooms, press conferences, and etc.....so be sure to turn in whenever it gets closer to the event

[XitUp]

Anyone got any info about who is showing this in the UK yet?

[plazzman]

Do you have any heroes? I’ve got a lot of respect for Rich Franklin. And one fighter I really like is Takanori Gomi. You can tell that his mind is nowhere except on what he needs to be doing. He’s trying for perfection the whole time.
Damn it, I thought I hated the guy, until this...

[Meshuggeth]

Haha nice
