      I would have put Hidehiko Yoshida vs. Mark Hunt 1st. Then Quinton Jackson vs. Ricardo Arona as the main non tournament fight.

        You know, the more I think about the Arona Jackson fight, the more I'm starting to think that Jackson is going to give Arona problems. Arona better stay off his back against Quinton.

          Arona vs. Jackson is the fight I am most looking forward too, I would of expected Sakuraba too be the main event, I hope he murders Schembri.......

              Yeah, I expect Sak to come out with a vengence, it has got to suck to hand someone there ass an entire fight then get caught with a lucky shot........
