I like Terell, he is good. Karo and Ryo should be a great fight!

nah little earlier than that maybe 2 weeks out because some people dont come here so often but might still wanna vote assuming the final card is done

i can't believe Evans v. Bisping is the main event. THIS has to be one of the weakest UFC's yet

the NEXT one looks entertaining though..

Jason Reinhardt i never seen him fight is he as good as his record shows?

*ChuteBoxe* · « **Reply #9 on:** October 31, 2007, 03:21:38 PM »

Rashad Evans vs. Michael Bisping
Karo Parisyan vs. Ryo Chonan
Houston Alexander vs. Thiago Silva
David Terrell vs. Ed Herman
Spencer Fisher vs. Frankie Edgar
Joe Lauzon vs. Jason Reinhardt
Chris Lytle vs. Thiago Alves
Luke Caudillo vs. Marcus Aurelio
Akihiro Gono vs. Tamden McCrory

Here is the COMPLETE card, all of these fights will be counted in the next round of predictions, just like the last nine from UFC 77 were.

Looks like the same card I already posted, and last time only 8 fights were counted.

Bluto · « **Reply #17 on:** October 31, 2007, 04:35:11 PM »

Ive actually seen him fight, not just looked at his stats on UFC.com. He is a durable fighter and I see him having the biggest chance at an upset. His boxing from the outside like most Chuteboxers is a little sloppy, but he is pretty good in the clinch, which seems to be Alexander's strong point as well.The Lylte/Alves fight should be pretty bad ass, I hope the UFC dosen't rob us of the opportunity to see that fight just to make a few bucks on their website. The rest of the main card bouts should be pretty competitive and entertaining and I will enjoy watching Bisping lose.

That makes two of us!

Well I'll go with Bisping.

Special Ed · « **Reply #22 on:** November 01, 2007, 09:30:48 AM »

I agree this is probably the weakest UFC headliner ever, particularly in light of Bisping's last "performance". However, there are a number of highly competitive, potentially explosive undercard fights. But this probably should have been one of the FREEBIES.

David Terrell is rumored to be off the card with an ankle injury.

Bluto · « **Reply #24 on:** November 03, 2007, 09:38:31 AM »

"After David Terrell was forced to withdraw from his UFC 78 bout against Ed Herman due to an ankle injury, veteran middleweight contender Joe Doerksen has decided to step up to face the Ultimate Fighter 3 finalist on November 17th"

"Doerksen (39-10), a native of New Bothwell, Manitoba, Canada, will be returning to the UFC for the first time since his March 2006 bout against Nate Marquardt at UFC 58. Since his last Octagon appearance, the 30-year old has won seven of eight bouts (all wins coming via submission or TKO), with his only defeat coming at the hands of current WEC middleweight champion Paulo Filho. In ‘Short Fuse’ Herman (15-4), Doerksen will be facing a hard-charging up and comer who is currently riding a two fight UFC winning streak. "
