Only half a pound over. It's not too bad. I think he can make the weight, but this half pound is gonna be killer for him though.

he's bulked up to the point where weightcutting seems it's becoming a problem for him.
him and anthony johnson are the biggest dudes in the division.  i can understand missing weight once but missing it again for a 2nd fight is not good.

fitch should've went through with what he said yesterday and put it in the contract that he'll only fight alves if he makes 170 at one point before the fight.

^ I agree with Shogun. If he every becomes world champion, its going to be a nightmare for the UFC. Dude is a huge for his weight class, muscle retain water.

 

[venom lyrix]

UFC 117 is stacked!!!!!

To a certain extent I hate that Chael is talking so much garbage but on the other hand I like it. Then again if he gets embarrassed by Silva tomorrow night like Forrest did he will look like a fool.

Can't wait!

Johnson is much bigger though, and actually makes weight (most of the time...)

Silva will probably take this but I dont know....theres something in my gut telling me that we are all in for a surprise tonight.

I dont know why. But it should be an interesting card, thats for sure.

Jon Fitch

Lets go! I'm so hype for this card tonight...

 

[bdeazy]

Excited for this weekend, UFC 117 should be title USA Vs. Brazil. They need national anthems at the beginning and a trophy presentation at the end.

Middleweight Championship bout: Anderson Silva (c) vs. Chael Sonnen(R) ground K.O. 4th round.
Welterweight bout: Jon Fitch vs. Thiago Alves TKO 3rd Round
Lightweight bout: Clay Guida vs. Rafael dos Anjos - Don't care
Welterweight bout: Matt Hughes vs. Ricardo Almeida Submission 2nd round
Heavyweight bout: Roy Nelsonvs. Junior dos Santos TKO 1st round

Brazil is taking this. 3-1.

I am going against everyone and picking Sonnen for the upset. Sonnen with the relentless takedowns and superior cardio to take a decision.

Agree with Mayhem Monkey, nobody is sleeping on this kid, but he stills got a long way to go before we talk about championships. The LHW division is no joke.

its a mistake its not like he spelt it horribly wrong. But anyways I usually feel an upset such as the Fedor vs Werdum and i love Fedor but i seriously see Chael getting him down getting reversed and elbowed to TKO or he gets the rich franklin treatment
