Getting a bit too giddy with the threads today, but some thing about last nights card kind of rekindled my excitement for this sport.

UFC on FOX, three weeks time, so ******* pumped.

Going all out with the old schoolers on this one and pickng Diaz, Rua, BJ.

Use this thread to express your general excitement for the card.

Pretty good one, don't really care for Swick vs. Brown but I love the top three fights.

I hope Ben gets finished, and I really hope BJ runs through Rory but he really should be trying to make one more final run at Lightweight, with Edgar gone he could really do some damage there.

I think Shogun is getting obliterated though, he's supposed to be back at Kings but Gus is so much better than Vera and I expect Gus to be faster and just overall better and mash him up for fifteen minutes.

I think Swick/Brown is a decent opener. It will at least be action. Not the best fighters in there, but interesting guys.

I'm pretty pumped for this as well. The top 3 fights all with no doubt should be fun fights. Possible KOs, possible subs, possible great fights. Couple legends. I like watching all those guys fight.

I am rooting for Diaz, a good fight, and Penn. I have winning, Diaz, Shogun, and Rory.

As for what I think of the Gustaf/Shogun fight, I think it can go either way. Shogun has a solid chin, still a lot of power, decent cardio, more experience. Gustaf if real good, but he needs to beat him technically and from a range. I think Shogun has more ways to win. I will go with experience here. I really like Gustaf as a prospect. But I don't think he is ready to be a top 3 LHW yet. I wouldn't be surprised if he won though.

That said We still got 3 weeks. Lets no get too comfortable yet.

If you're not looking forward to this one, then I don't want to know you.

Swick, Rory, Shogun, and Diaz for me. BJ retires. The Gustaf hype train is derailed. And a Diaz strikes gold. It's going to be a good night.

Diaz vs Henderson:

Diaz better smash Henderson's head in. I don't want Henderson to be the champion. Not because I hate him, but because I believe he doesn't deserve to be champion. He lost to Edgar in his previous fight as far as I am concerned. It is Diaz's time.

Shogun vs Gustafsson:

I absolutely have no idea how this would go. Shogun should have destroyed Vera, but he didn't. He is too inconsistent. If I had to go with one, Gustafsson by decision.

Penn vs Rory:

I like Rory, but I love Penn. Rory has a long career ahead of him, so a loss against one of the best won't do him much harm at this point of his career. Rory isn't ready for a title contender match anyway. I hope Penn puts in an amazing performance and outclass Rory.

Swick vs Brown:

I want Swick to win this.
