The UFC event pales in comparison to the Affliction card tonight.

I'll be watching both though.

Should be interesting.

dude, a little research before you post never hurt anybody.

UFC 87 is August 9th, in Minneapolis. GSP-Fitch, Huerta-Florian, and Lesnar-Herring.

Tonight is simply an Ultimate Fight Night, just for Spike TV (and, really, just to have something to run against the Affliction card).

If you'd even WATCHED THE COMMERCIALS, you'd know that Anderson Silva is moving up to the 205 class (just because he can) to fight James Irvin. Since the fight is at 205, the 185 pound belt is obviously not on the line.

The more interesting fight will be Frankie Edgar vs. Hermes Franca at Lightweight.

I personally plan on finding a good live net feed for Affliction, and catching the UFN live. should be good watchin'.

Silva holds the title in the 185 lb class, so I assumed he would be fighting at the weight. That's not hard to understand.

VIA, Sorry that I didn't check this earlier. This card is going WAY slow, so you're not missing much picking it up late.


Affliction feed

Meanwhile, on the Affliction card, the "Old" Andrei Arlovski is coming in and out like a bad cellphone signal.

Yep, unreal. Sylvia was not prepared for that kind of hand speed at ALL.

Then, when McCarthy asked who he wanted to fight next, thought for a minute and said "somethinginRussian SomethinginRussian Ran-dee Couture"

Hey everyone. I didnt watch the UFC SpikeTV card and decided to watch the AB PPV fight.
Fedor proved that he is the best heavyweight. I see a fight with him and AA soon. Dana White will never let RC out of his contract and Fedor would destroy Randy anyway. Randy is past his prime. I wouldnt mind seeing Brock Lesner decide to leave UFC after his contract runs out. Can you imagine seeing BL fight Fedor after BL has about 2 more fights under his belt and gets more experience in BJJ.
