im all for great fighters past their prime fighting. however, i do have a problem with them being the main event. i think an old timer should be in the first fight of the main card to get the night going, not finish the night with an old guy sucking wind and turning the fight into a wrestling match

i say wrestling match because strikers will retire before the age of 45ish. a striker's gameplan is to stand and trade with younger, stronger, and faster strikers. we all know how that ends... ((will dana let the iceman fight a striker again? or just stick with ground guys like ortiz?)) wrestlers can endure longer in the sport because they can just hug or "couture" their way to a strategically boring victory

This may be one of the weakest ppv I have seen

Couture by knockout or TKO in the second round.

This is going to be the most boring fight of the year, besides that though I think you mean to say Randy is gonna slam coleman into the ground and hammer away.

RANDY GONNA WIN BY SUBMISSION IN THE LAST HALF OF THE SECOND ROUND

Good thing Ufc 110 and 111 are going to awesome cards!

I agree with you

Couture by total destruction in the 3rd round

Randy has to be the better wrestler, but neither guy finishes their opponent.
it would be great to see Randy pull of a sub or something unexpected. wishful thinking...

Couture has been an Olympic wrestling alternate, Coleman was an Olympian. Coleman who in the early days was submitting guys with strikes coined the phrase "ground and pound" After seeing Brandon Vera robbed of the decision against Randy I see this fight going to him in the same manner. Randy is not a great finisher and will not finish Coleman unless thers a fluke cut stoppage. Mark has the better chance of getting a tko win

If some of you aren't interested about this main card, you are just not a fan of mma. Two legends fighting inside the octagon, this will be a hell of a fight. Two great wrestlers = boxing match. Looking forward to see this and other cards are good also. Demian, Matt, Nate, Frank...

Still waiting that UFC 111 Carwin vs Mir.

Randy Coture will win by decision. should be a great fight, were so lucky to be able to watch match ups like this! two LEDGENDS of mma. ok we all know there not in there peak but still cannot wait.

The winner gets a free early bird dinner at Dennys

i disagree Randy is the best fighter ever!

Everyone is downing this PPV but watch it turn out to be a great night of fights. Especially Marquardt vs Sonnen and Serra vs Trigg (I just love seeing Trigg get his ass beat)

This card has INTERESTING fights...not like UFC 104 where you could basically be positive of how each fight was going to turn out. Randy vs Coleman is going to be pretty interesting I think I'm going with Randy via stuffing the takedowns and using the dirty boxing.

I just can't stand the way Dana and Joe are talking about this thing though. Dana saying if Coleman gets past Couture then "He's back!" That's kind of a load of shit. I think that even if he wins, he's going to have alot of trouble with anyone in the division.

nvm... Couture by KO 1st round.
