Ufc 68!

[Odin]

Here is the card for UFC 68, its good to see Sobral back on there, i havent seen him fight since Chuck i was wondering what happened to the poor guy

Its interesting to see thatn Franklin will be fighting Jason Macdonald...I've said on previous threads that Jason macdonald is a very talented fighter it should be good to see what he has against a former champ.....my prediction?, he'll do fine as long as he takes it to ground.

The main card being Randy vs Timmy....hmm i dont know about this one, I'm still thinking Randy should have stayed in retirement, I would liek to see him win but im not too sure i could stomach Cro cop fighting Randy..i have far to myuch respect to watch randy get beaten like cro cop would beat him.

Randy has a shot at taking Tim out, but if he does, then Crocop gets a title shot, that would be one I don't think he'd be able to win.

But one of the things I've always liked about Randy was that he took tough fights, he's 14-8. Just looking at the numbers that's not very impressive. But he's never been one to take a easy fight.

True, he has to relise he's not a young guy any more though...i dont like Tim Slyvia since i find him a boring fighter but that doesnt make him a bad fighter, its method has shown time and time again to work..jab jab sprawl jab jab sprawl...we're see what coulture brings to the table..

I hope Randy wins. I hate Tim Sylvia because he doesn't really try to win a fight. He just tries to not lose a fight and it just gets boring after a while. If Randy wins, I think CroCop should fight Tim Sylvia first and then get a title shot. That's just me though...

The card looks good though! I can't wait to see Babalu fight again.

Does Randy have to fight again if he beats Tim? Or can he retire immediately after taking the title?

I respect the guy (one of the classiest in the sport, IMO!) and he is a great fighter, but at, what, 43? he really shouldn't be putting his body through that kind of punishment.

Yes he does. He has a 4 fight contract deal. Here's the site:

Is that four fights regardless of the Championship bout outcome??
