LOL Wings are doing what they normally do. Dominating most of the season, then slacking off during January and losing games and then coming back to win the cup

HAHA but back to Affliction..... Atencio is saying they want to do another show in July or August, can't wait for that I like the format of only doing a couple shows per year, gives them more solid cards and I must say the Day of Reckoning card was full of Powerhouse fighters. I was highly impressed.

Not saying Matt Linland isn't competition, but I'd like to see Vitor fight more of it, he looked great

Matt Lindland is a great fighter. I just think his age is catching up to him. Vitor will be in UFC MW division by the end of the year IMO.

I agree with that as well, but I also hate shelling out $55 bucks a month for events and if there are two events I really want to see in the same month it starts to get pricey. December sucked in that regard LOL.

Glad DREAM is still free

I pretty much feel the same about most of the matches with one exception:
I was very happy about the Barnett fight. Josh really did his homework and presented a very intelligent and technically sound solution to the "hurrican"-problem.

I also believe Barnett is the guy who will put Fedor's winning streak to an end.
Maybe this is wishful thinking, but I feel AA has shown that Fedor can be beat.
And Josh is a true fighter - lots of heart, great arsenal, deep understanding of the game.

Barnett will beat the unbeatable (fingers crossed)

Barnett is awesome. But if Cro Cop took him 3 times, and Fedor dominated prime Cro Cop. I know MMA Math dosen't work well lmao but I really can't see Barnett beating Fedor. They have similar fighting styles and Fedor can't lose at his own game....MMA lol.

When asked who I thought had the best possible chance of beating Fedor I said probably Arlovski if he brought his A game. Well he brought his A game (looked good for the first minute or two) but still got KTFO.

Do I think Barnett can beat him? No. I mean anyone has a chance but based on the performances alone I'd say nope.
