Pretty much a Brazil vs. USA card so far. Brazilians are cheering loud for their guys so it might be hard for U.S. fighters to get a fair decision. We will see.

All Brazil so far. White journeymen Dan Miller, Spencer Fisher and David Mitchell lost to white or mestizo Brazilians.

Stanislov Nedkov is an undefeated Bulgarian and a new guy in the UFC. He is a world class wrestler and grappler but just KO'd white Brazilian Luiz Cane (one of the better strikers in the UFC).

The only knock I can see is that Nedkov is a small 205. He might want to consider dropping to 185.

Pearson got robbed and lost a split decision. In any event, Barboza is a complete hype job.

He fought like it ... damn he looked awful (weight drained, pale, skinny). Ugh.

Not really Impressed with Nedkov, I saw the Kevin Randleman fight and I thought he lost. This is a terrible card, I know the card is suppose to favor the Brazilians, but this is absurd. I think Dan Miller, David Mitchell, and Spencer Fischer need to learn to wrestler. Fischer should be gone due to the fact that he has gotten outwrestled by even the British fighters. Once again awful card.

Yeah, weak card. But I liked Nedkov and though Pearson got screwed by the judges.

Barboza will not be the next champ. He is average.

At least Forrest lost to a fellow white and not Jones or Evans. He looked real bad.

Ol' Dixie's half cent...

- Sonnen & Hendo are the best fighters to dethrone Silva.

all over the internet people were saying that Forrest showed up at the event slurring his words and acting like an idiot before the fight. I don't know if he was drunk, but clearly not a good way to prepare for the fight.
