    • Champ Brock Lesnar vs. interim champ Shane Carwin (heavyweight title-unification bout)
    • Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Chris Leben
    • Matt Brown vs. Chris Lytle
    • Stephan Bonnar vs. Krzysztof Soszynski
    • Kurt Pellegrino vs. George Sotiropoulos
    PRELIMINARY CARD (Spike TV)

    • Brendan Schaub vs. Chris Tuchscherer
    • Seth Petruzelli vs. Ricardo Romero
    PRELIMINARY CARD (Un-aired)

    • Kendall Grove vs. Goran Reljic
    • Dave Branch vs. Gerald Harris
    • Forrest Petz vs. Daniel Roberts
    • Jon Madsen vs. Karlos Vemola
    Seriously WTF is this crap? This cards a pile of dog****. And PPV in the US? Give me a ****ing break. Not so long ago perennial looser Bonnar couldnt even make airtime getting added to a prelim with Mark Coleman (The same Coleman who headlined because Randy Couture was top billing :roll: ). Now he makes the main card? Apart from Carwin vs Brock which is only interesting because of Brocks background in the WWE the card is pure trash. I know if i was a yank they'd be no way id be buying this crap.

    Seth Petruzelli is in the UFC?

    I wonder how StrikeForce would do with a card featuring Kimbo on national television.

    He's fought in the UFC before. Its probably only a one fight contract. Kimbo would probably do well economically in any US promotion he fights in as he's pretty much a household name amonsgt 16-35 year olds.

    I gotta agree Scurla, this PPV is garbage. Aside from the main event, every other fight is spike or versus worthy. For this garbage to actually be PPV is really disgusting. The recent SF event of Fedor vs Werdum is better than this ****.

    **** off with this garbage PPV nonsense. Everyone said 115 was gay and it rocked just like most cards that arent stacked with main event fights. This card is stacked with fights that will be entertaining. You got a damn fine main event, when the **** is Chris Leben in anything less then a good fight ? Same with Chris Lytle. Bonnar-Sosznyski I was a freaking war and I doubt a rematch is anything less. Sotripolus vs Pellegrino is sure to hit the ground at some point and then you got 2 world class grapplers battling out. I cant wait for Saturday dont like it DONT ****ING WATCH.

    I'll watch the main event online or the next day, other then that I won't PAY for ANY UFC card anymore. Dana lost my buys! I don't care if KingKong was fighting God****ingzilla!

    I went to UFC 115 live and was exciting about going, but was dreading a bad card as so many were predicting. Lo and behold it turned out to be pretty damn entertaining.
    So, I'll hold off making a knee jerk assessment that UFC 116 is a **** card until it's over.

    That said, I'll sit my ass on a bar stool and watch it instead of ponying up $60 for PPV.

    This is a huge card for one reason. Lesnar. We'll find out something about that guy either way.

    One of the few cards where the main event is all I need. However the co-main event has entertaining fighters as are the other match ups. Mega main event and the rest are entertaining.

    Although apart from the main event there are no house holds. All other fighters are interesting fighters and should put on a good show...alot of big hitters on this card.

    Great headline fight...decent match ups on the rest of the main card and undercard but no other big need to see fights....decent bill and looking forward to it.
