UFC Fight Night 76 Predictions


What the poster for this card should look like

What a card for the UFC.  Injuries are a part of the game.  You can't avoid them.  but it's not often that that not just co-main event, but the main event gets KO'ed because of boo-boos.  This card went from this:
Graphics in this looking tight.  We got these guys looking straight up ethereal with how they are blend into that colorful back drop.  Stipe then gets hurt so we lose that fight;
"Ok, Ok so we lost the heavyweight fight with the potential title contender.  We still have the guy who last beat Conor! Fighting in Dublin! Cha-ching!....Hello?  Wait what's that you say? FUCK!!! Call Jimmy we need another fucking poster!!"

Well at least they still have an Irishman in the main event.

It's MMAzing Radio - Episode 153


The gang doesn't have a UFC event to go over and don't have a UFC event to preview. Bellator couldn't even throw them a bone and they're down a member this week. Basically, this is one giant "Stuff We Like" with some random MMA thrown in. The MMA that the gang covers includes the Faber/Dillashaw dispute and Rampage on Twitch. Seriously, that's basically it. Besides that they cover the beta release of the Battlefront game, superhero TV shows, and Frasier. Yes, Frasier.

UFC 192: Cormier vs. Gustafsson Predictions



While many fans look at current Light Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier as merely a place holder until Jon Jones can return to the UFC, he still has to fulfill his championship duties and defend his belt (disputed or otherwise) against a difficult and game opponent in Alexander Gustafsson. In addition to that fight we also have two potential title eliminators when Johny Hendricks collides with Tyron Woodley and Rashad Evans finally returns to the octagon to take on the rampaging (I can say that because he beat Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson) Ryan Bader.
