Lol, yeah. Good job nowhere over here sells Xyience products. Ive heard the ad so many times im sure id end up buying tons of their stuff.

What time is UFC 60 being shown in Redz?

Yep, the sound will be on guys! The club is open solely for the ufc as it was back in february. Open from 9pm and guessing that it starts on bravo at ten!:

This will just be Bravo, right? There's no other way of getting this is there?
Sounds like a good laugh, anyway

Well for one, what has Royce done in recent UFC's to deserve a title shot over other active fighters at that weight?

I'd nearly go further & Im probably going to annoy a few people here but........
what has Royce done recently in MMA to deserve to even set foot in the ring with the WW UFC Champ?!

It's not a title match because the fight is taking place at 175lbs instead of 170lbs.

Royce is a well know face in the sport of MMA. His name will sell tickets. It's not a title match, I guess Zuffa can make whatever match they want. They are a business.

Personally, I think Royce has every right to fight Matt Hughes if he wants.

1. It's not a title match, so theres no dispute of him cutting lines.
2. Without Royce's introduction of BJJ to MMA, I don't think we would been studying BJJ today.
3. Alot of people question the competition that Gracies face, I think Hughes is a great fight for Royce and will prove his naysayers wrong that he fights bums.

As long as it's not for the title then there's no real questions about why the fight's happening. Royce Gracie is a total legend in MMA, obviously Matt would want to beat him and if Royce could beat Matt then that would mean a lot too obviously.

How long is GSP going to have to wait for his shot does anyone know? UFC 62?

yup he is, but there are others that have put more into the sport recently that deserve a chance ahead of Royce.
I dont think it matters whether or not its a title match, that type of farcical situation has been going on controversially in Pride for some time now, generally leaves a bad taste after a champ gets beaten and the winner doesnt get a title shot.

i mean lets say royce wins, then gsp gets the title from matt, gsp then has to prove himself against royce, sure it will draw but its a ridiculous way of doing things and detracts from the legitimacy of the title..... imo

I hadn't really thought of it but you're totally right.

Sounds like a great laugh.

Just set up a "Hughes v. Gracie" POLL and a UFC60 Prediction Comp.

Just to spice it up a little.... :cool:
