"As expected Spike TV returns with a "UFC Prelims" broadcast next month and airs UFC 111 fights of Matt Brown (11-7 MMA, 4-1 UFC) vs. Ricardo Almeida (11-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) and Nate Diaz (11-5 MMA, 6-3 UFC) vs. Rory Markham (16-5 MMA, 1-1 UFC). "

2 very good fights to watch on SPIKE

That's an awesome card. Can't wait for it

I haven't seen Almeida fight in years. Not sure how competitive he has been? If he is anything like he was and Brown pulls off a win I will be taking him serious from now on.

He beat Grove in his last fight. He has dropped down to WW now though

I think this is his first fight at WW, I have been looking forward to it.

Yeah when Almeida burst onto the scene I thought he was gonna be the champ for years. I wonder how he will do at WW though?

we will see, Brown is a tough dude. He makes you bring it.

I was surprised Almeida vs. Brown was even on the prelims. Seems like a solid main card fight to me.

Almeida is very good. If he doesn't get caught he dominates on the mat.

I'm an idiot. I went to watch it and immedietly realized I was thinking about Arona when I first saw this thread. Brain fart anyone?

Almeida subs Brown, almost all of Brown's losses are by sub

Matt Brown also has a horrible nickname, "The Immortal"
