    Stupid decision going head to head with UFC 100 (maybe a potential Mayweather comeback fight too) even if its shown for free. Then again it would be good to see Fedor back in action. Just hope they find him a good opponent.

    If they go head to head with ufc 100 it will be the last show afflicition puts on, it would be suicide by flaming skull tshirt.

    why would they schedule it on the same time as UFC? That's pretty dumb.

    They must have something up there sleeve. They have put on good cards, but nobody knows who they are. Mabye they have some good boxing matches on the go, and I don't mean Sylvia's lol...........

    I thought It was suppose to be Fedor-Barnett, why do they keep avoiding each other. That was suppose to headline the event which would have been a great main event who the hell is Fedor going to fight now? I'm not sure if Affliction will have big numbers if Fedor is suppose to fight an undeserving fighter.

    If they do this and the card is stacked anyone that pays for UFC 100 is an idiot. Affliction's fighters are much more exciting than that crap UFC puts on.

    ummm, yeah they have had 2 events last year, they better be good cards and they still have lost money, giving a card for free sounds like the final nail in their coffin.

    And you hate every UFC card they have put out?

    If you cant get exicted for Henderson vs Bisping,Alves vs GSP,Mir vs Lesnar 2,O'Brien vs Jon Jones,Thaigo vs Fitch and maybe Coleman vs Bonnar because you wanna see Fedor and Barnett in some mismatches you are a complete and total moron.

    This doesn't sound good. They've been building to Fedor/Barnett - so why sidestep it now?

    I'm not saying the Affliction card will be crap, but on paper it won't be better then the UFC 100 card. So if someone is looking to pay to watch a better card that makes them am idiot? :huh


    Exactly, Akiyama's UFC debut will most likely be on this card too.

    It appears Tito might not be fighting for Affliction either, Might go to strikeforce instead, I guess he thinks he's worth alot of money but nobody willing to pay it.

    Yup vs Alan Belcher thats a nice solid fight. So what you may have here IMO is a sick hard any all the big fights have something that catches the eye.

    Frank Mir vs Brock Lesnar II - Mir wants the Championship back that he never lost while Brock wants to avenge his only loss.

    George St. Pierre vs Thiago Alves - Welterweight Championship here GSPs the most complete fighter out there but Alves had vicious standup and has show fantastic takedown defense lately agianst great grapplers so maybe we have a fight for GSP.

    Dan Henderson vs Michael Bisping - You know these two men are going to have alittle animosity towards each other after coaching agianst each other for 8 weeks and a Middleweight Championship shot is probablly on the line.

    Jake O'Brien vs Jon Jones - Jones looks like a cant miss prospect now hes facing a excellent wrestler in O'Brien whos dropping down in weight although he had some success as a Heavyweight so maybe he gives Jones some problems.

    Stephan Bonnar vs Mark Coleman - 2 pouplar veterans looking for a much needed win and should be a good fight like any Bonnar fight.

    Akiyama vs Alan Belcher - Belcher on paper is the underdog much like he was to Denis Kang in Kangs debut but Belcher hung in there saw his chance to win and seized it.

    Jon Fitch vs Paulo Thiago - Thiago is looking to prove the Koscheck win was no fluke while Fitch tries to avenge his teamates loss and get back to another title shot.
