UFC 105 Main event is..?
Randy Couture vs Brandon Vera


Random as hell. I see Randy beating Vera up pretty bad and getting a TKO in the second or a UD.

Couture-Vera Tops UFC 105

IDK, I think its a good matchup to tell you the truth, I do see Randy winning once it hits the ground but Vera is a very underated standup fighter.

I disagree. Vera has shown no power at LHW. At HW he has great hands and power in his kicks as well. He has looked horrible at LHW and I think he has amazing talent, but doesn't show it. He hasn't looked good yet at LHW. He did okay in the Krystof fight, looked better. Couture, remeber is the guy that beat the **** out of Gonzaga, and Gonzaga and Nog are way better fighters.

I'd like to also comment on Paulo Filho. I did at one point have him the #2 middleweight in the world. I'd like to see him implemented in the UFC vs Yushin Okami. yeaah

Yeah true. His loss to Sonnen he wasn't even there. He would kill Sonnen 99/100 times.

Filho is a monster.

Plus Vera has like no muscle definition and he had to cut down from 230 lbs. I mean whats the deal with that.

Yeah...He has shown nothing at 205 to make me think he will win.
