Posted The Calendar here with a Sticky to keep it at the top...

Just added Cyrille "The Snake" Diabate vs Luiz Cane at UFC 114. Diabate has signed a 4 fight contract with UFC.

Strikeforce card with Fedor on is looks awesome!!

The Dream card could shape up to a very good card also. Hope they find big names as the opponents to face the fighter already scheduled to fight.

some good fights coming up looking forward to Diabate debut with the ufc he could be very excitng especially against luis cane thats gonna be a good scrap

I agree Pinsman, it's looking pretty amazing. We're lucky to be witnessing the period in a promotion where they're not too small to put on poor cards, or too big to get complacent. They want success and they're putting out great cards to get it.

All the UFC cards coming up look fantastic, after a few disappointments

Gustaffson/Davis for UFC 112!

looks like a physical mismatch




but Alexander has breeze blocks for fists, i think he will KO "Mr. Wonderful".


http://www.fightermag.se/nyheter/2010-02-13/the-mauler-klar-for-match-pa-ufc-112

Yeah he won't be standing with him, I see a wresting master-class coming

112 just keeps getting more interesting.


2 undefeated young prospects going at it, it will probably be a prelim though.

Sasa Milanovic will be next to Join the "Alistair Overeem Bum of the month club" he fights Overeem at Glory 12... Fuck knows who he is, 1st time Ive ever heard of him. No word wether its a K-1 or MMA fight yet. Guess I was right when I said I though Overeem would fight bums to stay undefeated in the run up to the Fedor fight. Ill be shocked if he figths anyone half decent before the Fedor fight.

Would fight anyone but defend his Strikeforce belt, i dont know how Strikeforce put up with him.

Melvin Guillard v Thiago Tavares added to UFC 114

Who in the blue hell is Sasa Milanovic? Never heard of the guy, nothing on him anywhere.
Whats the point Overoid?


Gusstafsson vs Davis is an excellent fight, Ive seen Guss fight before and he has incredible power. I think Davis will be too much though, his wrestling looks too good but a good fight between two prospects.

Is this really a step up from Torres for Guillard? Tavares is average at best and has lost to Wiman and Pellingrino, pointless fight for Guillard. Hope we see his hands here though and then gets a better opponent, this is an easy fight for him.

Is Randy vs Franklin confirmed?

WAR FRANKLIN!

Randy vs Franklin = Snoozefest IMO.

Not a fight i want to see.

Franklin is always an exciting fighter, thats one thing he always brings to the the table. Thats one reason he is my boy, another is because he always takes a fight, no matter how tough the opponent is.

Ive been supporting Randy in his last 2 fights against Coleman and Vera, I was supporting Nog before that. I am 100 percent definitley supporting Rich Franklin for this fight

go home old man Randy

I don't think Franklin is an exciting fighter. I think some of his fights have been exciting but it's generally down to the person he's fighter, The Crow, Anderson, Wandi.

Franklin has turned down one or two fights over the years as well.

sorry to rag on your favourite fighter, but he often fights for the judges which really grates on me.

Coming from a Sonnen fan

When does he fight for the judges? He always looks for a finish, or were you talking about GSP?

I thought the fights with Hendo, Hammil and Lutter were exciting as well. Hendo was a great fight and Hammill and Lutter were awesome finishes. The last boring fight Franklin had was against OKAMI! God bless you if you can make an exciting fight out of Okami. Can't remember the last time he had a fun fight. I think Okami vs Lindland would be the most boring match in history.

Hamill and Lutter are both second tier fighters and Lutter was only finished cos he gassed. Both good finishes, especially the Bas Rutten special against Hamill but hardly top class opposition.

He fights for the judges against people like Hendo, Wandi, Okami.

Ye but there still exciting, its besides the point about how good they are. Some of the best matches in MMA have been between second tier fighters, Look at Sam Stout vs Spencer Fisher.

He tried to finish Hendo, and was putting a lot of energy into it. He had Hendo introuble and he had his eye ripped out, im not saying he would have finished him but he was definitley trying his best. Franklin made this fight exciting as well, Hendo can put on some boring as well as exciting fights.

He was going all out against Wandy but he was careful as well, it would have been stupid to just rush in against him. Especially when he got hurt, he was holding back a little but what else do you expect him to do?

Okami is Okami he has only been finished once in a 28 fight career and always fights for the judges.

Sonnen is another who most of the time fights for the judges as well.

Didn't think he had hendo in trouble at all and if you look at hendo's career he's been in a huge amount of exciting fights. Hendo can grind out results but he's got a lot of KO's on his record and a lot of his decisions have been exciting. His losses have been great too!

Don't think franklin is at all exciting.

Hendo's only excting in fights where his opponent is known for exciting performances (Wandy is the best example) but he never makes any fight that exciting. Compare Hendo's fight with Rampage to Griffin's fight with Rampage, no comparision, Griffin's fight was much more exiciting.

Thats your opinion which is fair enough but personally im always entertained when he fights.

Brad Blackburn is to be DaMarques Johnson's opponent at UFC 112.

http://mmajunkie.com/news/17940/brad-blackburn-vs-damarques-johnson-set-for-ufc-112-invincible-in-april.mma

i already posted it in the prediction thread but Yuki Sasaki, Not Sakuraba is fighting Filho.
