UFC 126

Most stacked prelim card ever? How is the kid vs Johnson and Chad Mendes vs Omigawa fight now even on the main card?

How about most stacked card top to bottom ever?

Main Event:
185 lbs.: Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort
Main Card (Televised):
205 lbs.: Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin
205 lbs.: Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones
135 lbs.: Antonio Banuelos vs. Miguel Torres
135 lbs.: Demetrious Johnson vs. Norifumi Yamamoto*
Undercard (May not be broadcast):
155 lbs.: Paul Kelly vs. Sam Stout
170 lbs.: Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha*
155 lbs.: Gabe Ruediger vs. Paul Taylor*
170 lbs.: Mike Pierce vs. Kenny Robertson*
205 lbs.: Kyle Kingsbury vs. Ricardo Romero*

all i know is if I have to pay extra beyond PPV costs for fucking WEC fighters that used to be free im gonna cus Dana the fuck out.

So is Omigawa not on the card?

The undercard does not look to be especially stacked.

the main card is sweet though.

.Nope Omigawa is still on the card. - http://mmajunkie.com/news/21828/five-bouts-including-mendes-vs-omigawa-added-to-ufc-126-silva-vs-belfort.mma

I have no idea why those two fights would be stuck on the undercard. Does this show have a Spike prelims? Not a fan of middle of the pack welterweights getting main card precedence over top 10ers in the lower weight classes

Well the 2 japanese imports def stand out as fighters of interest. If they are on Spike, Im cool with that.

[X] Prelims on Spike
[_] Prelims not on Spike

Let's make it official then we'll write Dana a very nice letter.

Guys, if they have Ellenberger on the card over Kid or Omigawa lets do it dirty on twitter. We'll launch the campaign from here and it will go viral among WEC loyalists everywhere.

I cant wait to see Bader vs Jones!

This card is awesome!!!!

Hell, I can't wait to go see these fights live! Haven't been to a live UFC since 115 and it already feels too long...

U actually going Josh?

Hell yes! Booked Fri-Sunday night at Mandalay Bay, but we're flying in on Thursday night, so we booked a cheap room for Flamingo just to have a place to sleep for a few hours before moving over to MB.

It will be my 4th live event in the past year or so, but my FIRST time being in Vegas over Super Bowl weekend...really fucking excited for that!

That card is gonna be so sick and I believe its a cant miss card of the year canidate.

No doubt, when Mendes and KID are relegated to the undercard, you know you have a good night of fights ahead!

Being in Vegas from Thursday night until about 8pm Monday night is going to be a killer. UFC Q&A, weigh-ins and UFC Fight Club party on Friday, UFC 126 Saturday and the Super Bowl on Sunday...I'm going to need some reserve energy to maintain the whole time!

That is a whole life time of fun in 1 weekend lol.

And that's all the stuff I already know about, not to mention the random Vegas fun that I usually get into. I have a great nose for finding loose, slutty women in Vegas to occupy my time(big shock, huh? hehe), plus I'm bringing down a 31 year old friend who has NEVER been to Vegas before...going to be a super busy weekend!

Last time I was staying at Mandalay Bay for a fight was UFC 106 and I must have ran into or saw 35-40 fighters that weekend. Really looking forward to it again! Last time was great memories, doing tequila shots with Dana and getting a then pretty unknown Cain Velasquez to scare my friend coming around the corner. lol good times!

That sounds absolutely awesome.

No doubt, there's nothing like Vegas! Did you go to 123 in Auburn Hills?

I agree. Take notes and let us know how the weekend goes. I want stories!!!!!!

Matter of fact Keller, you need to make a tread before you go and let us know how the UFC/Superbowl weekend in Vegas went down.
