UFC 149 is the card of that we do not speak of...First rule of UFC 149 you do not speak of UFC 149.

On to Saturday. My take on the Co main and Main events are this. I really want to see how Bader does against Machida. I think one of these guys will be who faces Jones (or Hendo if he lands an H Bomb) for the title next. I would like to see Bader have another shot cuz he faced Jones early in his career. I think he will be smarter in his attacks this time around if he gets another crack at Jones. I dont see anyone outstriking him in this weight class much like Silva so only way to win is to grind one out on the ground. That is if you can take Jones down.

Now for the Rua vs Vera fight. Not a fan of Vera and much like the fans got it changed from this fight alone determining the next contender I do not see where Dana thought Vera would be a good choice if he won to fight Jones on his career record alone. I am guessing he thought Rua would win easily and get his rematch. I think Rua has a chance to demolish Vera in order to get his shot.

I too want AG to get his shot. Although I think it would be throwing him to the sharks right now. AG needs to fight the Machidas, Ruas, Baders, etc to see if he can hang in the upper echelon of talent in the LHW class. Give him 2 more fights against some of these guys and if he is successful give him a title shot.
