This should be a good card. It's just teasing me leading up the the New Years card and the Superbowl card, in which all the fights could be headlineers.

Sotiropoulos vs. Lauzon will be good. Tyson Griffin is gonna be cut more them likely after this card.

Lauzon always puts on exciting fights so I'm excited to watch him. I don't think Griffin gets cut, he's too good of a fighter. If he loses I think they will force him to drop down to the new 145 weight class and fight there where he will be more competitive.

I'm also hoping Aldo and Edgar fight at some point, Aldo has the scariest kicks I've ever seen. I think/hope Pettis beats Hendo then beats whoever wins the other fight.

The 155 and 145 classes are going to be super exciting in the near future.

Brock might not get his belt back ever. There are a lot of good HW and Brock isn't that skilled and can't take a punch.

I can't wait till Pat B. makes his return this year and smashes some guys with those tree trunk legs.

Anyone have predictions for the fights themselves?

He might get a shot at 145 but he will be on a short leash. He is the first fight of the prelims which is not a good sign.

I agree. I think DW has a soft spot for a lot of random guys and for some reason I think Griffin is one of them. He will probably get a fight or two at 145 and depending on how exciting they are he could get more, win or lose.

As long as people talk about the fights that's all DW cares about. W/L doesn't mean as much if you put on exciting fights, look at Guida. He's roughly .500 but puts on a hell of a show every time.

The new divisions will be exciting to see. As for Brock, I hope he makes a comeback. I'm by no means a Brock fan, but the way he was handled by Velasquez...I mean, I felt bad for the guy.

I'm most looking forward to Penn vs. Hughes though. Stacked card all around, tomorrow will be good.

I think the Heavyweight Div still has some good fights left. Cain is the total package and I look for him to have several more good fights. Brock will make it back and will be good as well. For a dude that has a short MMA career he has done well.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
