    I gotta say I cant wait for the Lesnar V Carwin match, purely because I think it will answer a lot of questions.

    Rua v Machida
    Penn v Sanchez
    Ortiz v Griffen
    Fedor v Rogers, does anyone else ever get the "oh shit, what if Fedor loses" feeling? Then he wins and you just go "well, I knew he would"

    I'm mostly looking forward to Melvin Manhoef v Zelg Galesic and the whole Dream New Years Eve card

    Out of the UFC I am most looking forward to all the title fights that are scheduled.

    Machida vs Rua could possible be fight of the year and a great display of striking.

    Lesnar vs Carwin gives me the opportunity to hopefully see that big nob end Lesnar get KTFO (please god, please baby jesus let this happen!!!!).

    Penn vs Sanchez will be a brawl and I like watching BJ fight at lightweight - his all round skill set is a joy to watch and I hope he wins by submission

    The more i think about Machida vs Shogun, the more i think we see Shogun unconscious in the ring in the first round.

    I wonder what the record is for the furthest a human being has ever been thrown by another human being. I reckon i could launch the powder puff a fair distance.

    I cannot wait for the Penn Sanchez match-up. Think that this has the makings of an excellent fight, and quite tempted to throw some cash on a Sanchez win.

    Gotta agree with Pete here, that's going to be a war. Diego is reborn at 155 and his cardio, chin and excellent ground game will really make things hard for BJ. I think Diego could win this one and spell the end for BJ in the UFC.

    That would set up Penn vs Aoki, JZ Calvan, Alvarez and Hellboy though so here's to hoping Diego "YES!!!!" Sanchez is the next UFC Lightweight champion.

    looking forward to the Penn War Limousine pulling up to Memphis and vanquishing the myth that Sanchez has any chance of toppling the Greatest LW in MMA period Cool

    December should be good Aoki's impending crushing by the erm...Crusher and Minowaman taking Soko Tree stump like leg home with him K-1 Dynamite is going to be shit hot also Hamill vs Jones could be fireworks.

    Lesnar V Carwin

    Watch Brock rip him apart, and silence the 1st section of his doubters!!

    and definatley Penn V Sanchez

    and any Kimbo Slice fight (i know i know im on the Lesnar and Kimbo bandwagon, but i just think they are quality to watch)

    i love it!

    cannot wait;

    Aoki vs Kawajiri
    Sokodjou vs Minowa
    Sylvia vs Choi
    Masato's last fight!
    KID vs Warren 2 perhaps
    Hari/Overeem/LeBanner all possibilites

    and it could finally happen albeit about a decade too late....


    Saku/Rickson is rumoured!!!!!!

    its the only fight that could outdraw Yoshida/Ishii

    I think i'm right in saying this is gonna be the first time that Timmy hasn't had a reach advantage in a fight. I think Gan McGee has the same reach as him.

    I know it probably wouldn't happen, but I'l love to see GSP vs Anderson Silva. I honestly would have no idea who would win that. Anderson Silva has the size and that might just swing it for him.

    And I wouldn't be sure on Lesnar ripping apart Carwin. Carwin will be the biggest guy by far Lesnar has fought and I honestly think Carwin has a great chance of knocking him out. Lesnars chin hasn't been tested yet so will be really interesting.
