The Chuck v Wand. fight is still huge even now, for very different reasons. They have both had a terrible year and the loser may even consider retirement.

Who could of ever imagined the possibility of The Iceman going 0-3 in 2007.

BJ's out. He's fighting Super Saturday.

And Wandy is training with Couture.

Wanderlei aint ready to retire yet. Chuck at 37 should retire, let someone else be the poster boy. 2 main events I like...but rest dont seem too good.

I dont even see Hughes v Serra as a entertaining fight, despite whats at stake and the buildup.

If Wand gets beat he may end up on Cagerage or something like that.

Wand has been laying low, but who can handle a CroCop kick to the side of the head? And he was sick when fighting Henderson. Henderson doesn't hit like a baby either.

I think if Chuck engages Wandelei it will be a bad night for him. If Wanderlei is stupid and runs after Chuck ala Babalu then he will get knocked out. I think Wanderlei is a smart guy as evidenced by his training with Couture. I hope Wanderlei puts it down on Liddell. I want this to set up title fight with Rampage for the summer of 08. If so, I will want to be in the house.

This is a make or break bout for Liddell. If he wins against Wand then those 2 losses will be forgotten and forgiven, but if he looses then he is finished in my opinion.

That remains to be seen.

If Sherk doesn't act like a bitchass and is man enough to return the title to UFC, it'll be Penn/Florian.

I dont think Sherk is acting like a bitch. Im sure when this steriod shit wears off then he will be back and even better...and hopefully exciting.
