UFC 100 was good and I expect this to be pretty good as well (if not better)
Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin is going to be worth the price of admission alone. BJ Penn/Florian is going to be good, and I'm excited to see Amir Sadollah fight again but I'm not sure what his fanbase is like. Here's the whole card:
MAIN CARD
* Champ B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian (for UFC lightweight title) * Champ Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin (non-title fight) * Johny Hendricks vs. Amir Sadollah * Ricardo Almeida vs. Kendall Grove * Josh Neer vs. Kurt Pellgrino
PRELIMINARY CARD
* Shane Nelson vs. Aaron Riley * John Howard vs. Tamdan McCrory * Thales Leites vs. Alessio Sakara * Dan Cramer vs. Matthew Riddle * George Roop vs. George Sotiropoulos * Jesse Lennox vs. Danillo Villefort

I was unaware Penn even had a title, I thought he lost his title to St. Pierre?

he lost the fight to GSP but it was a catchcan weight class. (between their two respected weights) I've been watching some of his training vids as he gets ready, dude looks to be in the best shape of his life imo. There's one vid of him jumping out of the 3ft end of a pool, in the water, bends, jumps lands on the coping feet first, no hands, that...is sick.
I like kenny also, I like kenny alot, and if he does win the title I wont be mad, however, I dont think he can beat Penn right now.

This does look excellent.
* Champ B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian (for UFC lightweight title)
I go with Penn because even though the Sherdog community hates him, I still like him.
* Champ Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin (non-title fight) YES I WENT THERE.
Griffin because I hate Silva.
* Johny Hendricks vs. Amir Sadollah
Hendricks because I like him.
* Ricardo Almeida vs. Kendall Grove
Kendall Grove because I don't like Ricardo Almeida's face.
* Josh Neer vs. Kurt Pellgrino
Kurt Pellgrino because I like the way he looks.

Forrest got embarrassed last night. That's really all there is to it.

That fight made me laugh, and I am now officially a Silva fan.
Griffin looked like a fool.
