Clay Guida vs. Shannon Gugerty

Great free card, looking forward to Dos Santos vs. Gonzaga, and I always like watching Jon Jones fight.

I really would like to see the Guida/Gugerty fight on the main card, but you've got to have the brawlers (Sakara/Irvin) slug it out to make for an exciting show for Versus newbs I suppose.

I am really excited for this card. The fact it is free is awesome (and would be more awesome if I wasn't outta town for a wedding that weekend).

I am really amped for the Gonzaga/JDS fight. That one should be a real test for both guys.

The opening fight is gonna be a definite don't-blink fight as these guys love to stand and bang (mainly because they can't do anything else). BTW, when the **** did Sakara grow the beard of justice?!?!

The main event doesn't really intrigue me as Vera sucks. That said, if Jones gets by him, it really elevates him to a big spot against a Thiago Silva, Forrest, Rashad type fight.

Sad to see Spencer Fisher is out due to injury. Ludwig/Spencer could of been a fun slugfest. Darren Elkins is taking his place on short notice.

Gonzago/JDS fight should be entertaining depending on which Gabe shows up.

Good stuff for this card, I'm glad they put some good bouts in it.

I'll give the UFC props, with 3 events in 10 days coming up (or something like that), they have done quite well with the substantial talent available.

I had not realized that this event is on SUNDAY. I had just assumed it was on Saturday, and couldn't find it on the DVR. I had to set a manual recording, then I saw a commercial saying live on Sunday.

Now I get it watch it live!!

I'm sure the Sunday thing was done to avoid competition with the NCAA Tournament.
