AA all the way kids!!!
The Janitor v Lil Nog is interesting,Babalu v Soku could be good, Vitor and Matt ehh, Barnett v Yvel(???) And ofcourse AA v Fedor hmmmm well is that worth $50 bucks to any of you?
Is to me, can’t wait to see it tomorrow night. But then, it only costs me $5-$10 since we get a group of friends together and watch. And I want to see my boy Arlovski win!
I totally get that having people pitch in and what not… Its just that great of a card after waiting 6 months for it, that’s kinda my point, cheers…
Is a great card, don’t really like waiting 6 months for them. You think if AA isn’t successful against Fedor, he’ll make the jump to boxing?
If he loses he’ll definately go to boxing after this, there’s more money there for him anyways
Regardless of splitting the cost, I don’t want t~shirt guy getting any of my money. That being said it looks like a top heavy card, they got enough big names to get some people to watch, but after that its nobodies.
Get your Fedor now. You won’t see him again until NYE.
I think Arlovski takes this one via ko in rd 1 or 2. I think hes more prepared than what people giving him credit for. His superior striking should hold the advantage in this one. I have much respect for Fedor, but as of late Arlovski just seems to be on a scarily different level. Should be a good one for however long it last!!
uhhh did he look like he was on another level when that fat slob roy nelson was dominating him on the ground? If Roy Nelson can control Arlovski as easily as he did Fedor will be able to sub or TKO him within about 45 seconds of the fight hitting the mat.
Fedor has also consistently outstruck fighters with far better standup than Arlovski. Arlovski has good boxing, but boxing and MMA striking are different things.
Arlovski has no chance at all.
Keep in mind that Roy Nelson is very good on the ground for such a fat slob, and I guess we will know tomorrow night!! But none the less I still feel Arlovski looked very good in that fight!
He looked good, except the part where he was laying on the ground beneath that fat slob in a kimura…right before the ref stood them up, removing the advantage that Nelson had by having him in a kimura.
The ref should never have stood them up at Affliction Banned. IMO, Nelson was really close to a win there. Sure he’s a fat slob, but he’s a fat slob with decent cardio and who can really fight.
AA beat Nelson at the EliteXC final show not at Banned.
Random: But Barnett looked horrible at the weigh-in, its amazing what steroids can do for someones physique. Look for the psycho to ko a very very fatigued Barnett in this one
Isn’t Nogueira under contract in the UFC?
This is his twin brother. The UFC fighter is “Rodrigo” and the Affliction fighter is “Rogerio”.
I think an upset is very likely on this one.
I like Fedor and I’m rooting for him, but I think Andre is more than ready for this fight he’s been waiting for this opportunity for a while.
cant wait to see this but can someone please reply tellin me what time its on and what channel? cuz i would be pissed if i missed it
To jacobi…
Main card – PPV 9:00 pm Eastern / 6:00 PM Pacific
Preliminary Card – HDNet 7:00 pm Eastern / 4:00 PM Pacific
I will buy the ppv card, but I don’t have HDNet which really sucks because I would like to watch the under card as well!
I wanna see Barnett pull off some deadly catch wrestling suplexes and then submit this punk. Teach him some respect. Then, they can book the Barnett-fedor fight quickly. I don’t see Josh taking much damage, and I see fedor taking less. If only fedor doesn’t break his right hand when he drops AA.
just cause gilbert has a bunch of tattoos doesn’t mean hes a punk.. actually a very humble dutch man
If Arlovski makes it out of the 1st round it’s because he ran for the whole round. He has been looking good but not Fador good!
So what does Arlovski really weigh? I mean, without that huge midget-sized bling hanging from his neck?
Did Fedor ever weigh this much before? I thought he usually fights around 230-240ish? I may be wrong.
oops nevermind i was reading that number next to his name on the left
go arlovski!!!!!!!
anyone no if we can watch this in the uk????
You could probably watch it streaming somewhere. That’s how I plan to watch, either streaming of after the fact. Either on linked or justin.tv
Yes ive been looking forward for this for a while now and finally tonight it will happen!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fador pound 4 pound al I got to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
