Title: Fabricio Werdum vs. Brandon Vera in London
Post by: *ChuteBoxe* on February 23, 2008, 02:43:45 PM
I'm guessing this is a #1 contender match, even though Werdum was supposed to get the next shot at the title, could be interesting.  Discuss

I guess this is a good indication that Andrei Arlovski is on his way out considering he has won his last two fights and he recently beat Werdum and is not getting a title shot.  Vera lost to Sylvia so I don't understand how he is being reshuffled into the heavy weight deck at such a high position.    The UFC is pretty convoluted when it comes to choosing contenders.

after watching Vera & Sylvia a couple months ago I'm thinkin Brandon's better suited at 205......






the Heavyweights still suck !

They (the powers that be) wants to pad Fabricios record.

Brandon Vera is one of the fighters that makes UFC looks bad.

Vera has finished 6 of his last 7 fights ( 3Tko's 2 Ko's and 1 sub). He's boring to people who don't know shit from shineola.  So I could see why you would think he was boring.

Another closet MMA fan......Have you watched any of his fights other than the Sylvia fight?

I like Vera.  Except for his last fight with Tim, they've all been exciting.  I think he can take Werdum and get back into title contention.

he did good against Sylvia considering the size difference, he should move to 205
