Ah that's right. Both guys season 2.

I'm tuning into Season 5 to see if anything happens between Joe Lauzon and Jens Pulver.

Should be interesting. Both guys don't like each other and TUF 5 culminates with the 2 guys fighting each other at the finale.

Make sure you watch the UFN card, or at the very least the maint event.

Who does everyone like tonight in the main event?

I like Stevenson via submission in round 2.

For some reason, I really see this one going the distance and Stevenson winning a unanimous decision.

I'm also really interested in seeing how K-Flo bounces back from the Sean Sherk loss.

I think swick ends his streak tonight.

Swick is fighting on the PPV card on Saturday actually.

I agree though, I think Okami is going to pound him out.

I'm picking Stevenson in the 2nd, but I like Guillards future.

So do I. In the UFC's 155 LBs division, I think he's clearly the best and most dynamic striker. An argument could be made for Hermes Franca, but his tecnique isn't as sharp and he's more of a wild puncher, wild Guillard has better technqiue and is more of an athlete.

I think this is just a tough matchup for him, Stevenson is an oustanding grappler and a solid striker in his own right. I don't know how good Guillard's take down defense is, tonight will be a good test, but I agree, Guillard has a bright future in the UFC.
