  1. Mike says:

    How is Bader vs. Machida not the main event? Brandon Vera? Seriously? I am pretty sure Shogun has lost 2 in a row, although the fight with Henderson was epic.

    • Mateus Alves says:

      I totally agree with you dude. Rua Vs. Vera should be awesome, however Machida Vs Bader is a fight between two fighters that are better ranked. Should be great anyway.

  2. Babazoo says:

    Promote Davis vs Prado to main card :)

  3. bb says:

    babazoo ur right

  4. Brend0magic says:

  5. jojoboxer says:
