Ok So we have the rematch between Edgar Fletcher & BJ Penn. IMO The first fight was pretty much a draw so I was surprised they gave it to Fletcher. BJ really needs to make sure he comes into this fight in good shape, if he does I think he will win back the belt. Frankie is just one of those guys who made himself the champ by shear heard work and determination. I don't think he posses the skill set Penn does, I just think he works harder. That being said, looking forward to a really good fight.
Couture Vs Lights out Toney. This is actually a dangerous fight for Couture and for Dana White. Toney has some devastating stand up and we all know Rands chin isn't what it used to be. If Couture shoots and gets hit coming in it's all over and MMA looks stupid because a Boxer (Over the hill Boxer) comes in and knocks out a former UFC Champion. Now on the other hand, even though there is that possibility of Couture getting caught, I don't see it happening. Couture will go in, put Toney on his butt, and grind out a win on the ground. Actually looking forward to this fight the most.
As far as the other fights, I really haven't checked the whole card out yet. I will leave that up to DTW so he can get us all pumped up for this coming weekend.
