I am going to be completely honest right now. the UFC would be getting my money for Vitor & Andrei alone, and this card is the best card (on paper) in a while. I always buy the PPV if it has either Andrei, Robbie, Hunt, Donny, Vitor and Aldo. not many other fighters (UFC specifically) will make me open my wallet to those fucking scumbags that run their show. it kills me to not buy this PPV. it really does, but I just cannot give the UFC my money. they are everything I am against as a person. but the fighters that I want to support I cannot support in any other way. I am not walking around in a fighters shirt, mostly because they all suck shit and make me look childish or fanboy. I have no other means to support a fighter if I dont buy the PPV....but I refuse to give the UFC, a shady as fuck organization, my money. it really puts me in a moral and ethical bind. I have supported Andrei and Vitor "financially" for over a decade. I watched Vitor win the HW belt from Randy LIVE with my dad at my first ever UFC event at UFC 46.

I am a desperate MMA fan lost in Zuffa's crappy reality.

Anthony Johnson vs. Daniel Cormier = either Johnson by KO rnd.1 or DC by long and boring LnP decisions.....guess who usually wins those type of battles. I will be rooting HARD for krunk, but DC will decision him.

Chris Weidman vs. Vitor Belfort = cheering HARD for Vitor, but Chris is a fucking beast and will remain champion. no losers in this fight. if Vitor loses I think he will retire after an incredible career, and Weidman is a stud.

Donald Cerrone vs. John Makdessi = pray for Makdessi. LOL, but seriously. I can see Makdessi's style making this a boring fight.

Travis Browne vs. Andrei Arlovski = Andrei by TKO. people are sleeping on his takedown D and his ground game. I think he keeps it standing and makes it a good fight. someones gotta win and I think that someone will be Arlo.

My daughter had her 3rd knee surgery yesterday (and she's 16), so I've been cleaning house this morning, so her and my wife can just relax when they get home from the hospital. I'll be done in about an hour, and then I'm icing down 12 beers and preparing the grill. No idea what I'm making today...thinking baby back ribs.

Big day for us. Daniel Straus @Daniel Straus Q&A at 5pm ET and then we roll right into UFC 187. Hyped.
