Nice card, Mike Swick is always fun to watch.

Wanderlei Silva to win
Heath Herring to lose
Caol Uno to win

Herring never was any good imo...

Im going to go with Franklin to win. He his a much better fighter, IMO, then the AX murder. Silva is too much of wildman in the ring, I think Rich will pick him apart..

UFC 100 should be an awesome event. I agree the last few cards haven't been that great and it seems like a lot of good fighters are being out on the prelim card.

I really don't think UFC 100 is going to be as huge as most expect it to be.. It's going to be Lesnar vs Mir, and maybe another big name, that's it.. The ufc can't afford to put it all it's eggs in one basket, since it will leave us with nothing to look forward too in upcoming events.. I think 100 will be decent. It's seems like they save the best for Dec, that's how it has been the last couple of years..

But any card could be awesome, depends on the fighters(Top teir or not)...

I never said anything about names being big enough, I said I didn't think their would be many big names on the card. I didn't think they would Have GSP fighting that night, but awesome he his though..
Yes, the card is stacked, should be a good PPV, based on names on the card..
Come on, Mark Coleman and Bonnar, Coleman shouldn't be allowed to fight after his last performance. They guy is way over the hill. Dana complains about the IceMan, but lets coleman fight..
Hope Mir, puts that overhyped WWE wrestler in his place. Rooting for GSP, and I hope Hendo, finally shuts up the count Bisping. Can't stand Bisping, he lost to Matt hammil and still thinks he's the best..

Yes, Coleman shouldn't be on any card, it's awful watching him fight. And I can't stand Bisbing either and he did get beat by Hammil, glad others see it that way too.
