very good card...Belfort is going to a lower weight class....for me not a bright move, but maybe he can do better (well, he has a cage rage belt, not too shabby)

I am anxiously awaiting this card.  I really want Affliction to be successful.  The UFC needs competition, the fighters need competition if they expect to have any power or make any real money.  As for Belfort, my initial reaction was that it wasn't a good idea but considering how long he has been around he is entering the twilight of his career.  Considering that power is the last thing to go or so they say he is probably thinking that he could extend his career a while longer moving down to a lower weight class where he could use his power/size advantage.

That's enough good names to put on 1-2 worthwhile events.  But, for them to remain successful in the long-run, they're going to have to add a lot more talent.  Still, not a bad start.  Definitely the best Heavy Weight Division in MMA...

This is being talked about quite a lot here in Southern California, but I am not sure that the UFC is too happy about this reigning on their parade.
