| UFC 68 Fight card UFC® : Ultimate Fighting Championship® Anyone look at the UFC 68 fightcard? Doesn't look to good, i'm just hoping that Couture some how beats Sylvia. Also notice the 2 guys that are 5'12" and 1 guy is 5'13". |

+6 Internets | It's not stacked with top competition, but the card isn't too bad. I'm interested in Mcdonald vs. Franklin and Babalu vs. Lambert. My picks are Couture, Babalu, Mcdonald, & Hughes. Poor Chris Lytle. |

Can't say I'm super excited about UFC 68 or 69, but the rumors for UFC 70 look great. | |

| 68 sounds awesome for your average UFC fan, alot of names that they hyped themselves, it will definitely be better than 67. I think Sokoudjou was a fluke, he's lost to a pretty unknown guy named Glover Teixeira (whos lost to ed herman if it means anything, sherdog math I know). Sokoudjou vs. Glover |

+1 Internets | In my mind, saying that UFC 68 is full of 'interesting' fights is analogous to saying that UFC is full of 'potentially boring' fights. Sylvia vs Couture: This is a simple payday. Randy gets some free cash and the UFC profits either by having a champ who 'beats one of the best of all time' (i.e. and finally manage to get Sylvia some heat outside of his small group of current fans); or else they have a 'return of the King' type scenario. Neither interest me. This is just marketing. Lyttle versus Hughes: Give me a break. The fact that Hughes got absolutely destroyed by GSP does not make him a fighter of Lyttle's calibre. There is no way Hughes loses this fight other than by total fluke. Franklin vs MacD: Probably the most interesting fight of the night. MacD has already stopped 2 people he was supposed to lose to, and it will be interesting to see how Franklin's psyche is holding up after his severe beating at the hands of the Spider. Lambert vs Bablu: What's the point? Babalu is not getting another title shot in the foreseeable future. I don't see Lambert having a real shot - not athletic or well-rounded enough. Again, getting KOd by Chuck does not make Babalu a fighter of Lambert's calibre. Babalu probably wins - but so what? So all in all, thanks bittorrent! I'll be seeing these fights on Sunday. |

+1 Internets | Great Karo clip. I love seeing his footwork and balance. Its also cool to see how he is applying Judo techniques to MMA in ways that work - I've probably seen him do all those takedowns in a real fight at some point or another. |

| Rough Morning for "The Iceman" Sherdog article says he was sick, had very little sleep, and had a ton of nyquil. Never good conditions to be interviewed. |
