i think Sylvia will get subbed. with those long arms and legs, i think we will see something like mir vs sylvia go down

Lots of hype surrounding this event boys...let's hope it lives up to the pedestal we've placed it upon!

Speaking of Sylvia, has everyone seen the interview Arlovski did? His comments on his ex and Sylvie were awesome. Link attached if you didn't see it.

A few of the people I have coming over are virtually clueless about MMA but I convinced them that this is the card they have to see. I'm hoping that it opens up our world to them and makes them devoted fans.

me and a couple of my friends have an ever growing MMA " see the events club " i have yet to see a friend not return

Thats poo-poo! How the f**k does something like this happen. He and his team have known about this fight for how long? and they still weren't able to meet the licensing requirements. Ridiculous!

The other side of the coin is this. Why are they making it so damn hard to get licensed? What requirement could he possibly have failed to meet? Freaking stupid. I honestly wish that sanctioning bodies were done away with. Useless douchebags.

I never even thought this fight was going to happen, but thats cause I thought Aleks wouldn't get into the US.

I posted this in the Affliction discussion thread after Norway told us the bad news, I'm gonna put in in here though too. I'm so bummed out about this.
