I can't believe none of you all (except a trusty few) talk more MMA. Saturday is a very nice card imo.
Anderson Silva (c) vs. Vitor Belfort
Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin
Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha
Jon Jones vs. Ryan Bader
Miguel Torres vs. Antonio Banuelos
Donald Cerrone vs. Paul Kelly
Chad Mendes vs. Michihiro Omigawa
Paul Taylor vs. Gabe Ruediger
Kid Yamamoto vs. Demetrious Johnson
Mike Pierce vs. Kenny Robertson
Kyle Kingsbury vs. Ricardo Romero
Prelims on Spike and the KID/Johnson fight is on Facebook.
the Andy/Vitor staredown was intense lol
and oddly enough, this is the best card since AS' last fight, the 117 card.

Should be some great fights, I hope Belfort beats Silva but I dont see it. Griffin is one of my favorite fighters and Jon Jones is always fun to watch. I saw a thread on Sherdog the other day that Jones had said somewhere he was going to go to HW at some point in his career...what do you all think about this? Ive heard he walks around at about 230, but they were debating on whether he could pack on size like Overeem did
Jones and his camp(s) have always said he will end up fighting at HW.
He cuts quite a bit, I think its from 230-240 like you said*, and once he gets older and fills out the cut will be impossible.
*but he is FAR from the only 205 guy that cuts from that high. Forrest cuts like that, Bader does, Rampage, King Mo, even Machida cuts about 20-25 pounds.
Very few big time LHWs dont cut a lot of weight, guys like Shogun, Rashad (who could fight at MW IMO), Mousasi, Rich Franklin, are part of the few that dont cut major weight.
Jones/Bader wont be that big of a discrepancy, maybe 10 pounds if that on fight night.
The biggest weight difference on the card will most likely b Franklin/Griffin, Rich will be outweighed by 30 pounds on fight night I estimate.

Vitor didnt look scared at all.
Jones looked kinda nervous to me. I personally hope bader kicks his ass

Jon Jones!! I been tellin yall this kids for real, and he just RAN THRU Ryan Bader.
Jones v. Shogun, **** I CANT WAIT
I dunno, it might be too early for Jones, he only has 13 fights and now he has to deal with maybe the most brutal guy in MMA.
