Also read a funny comment: "Machida is so elusive, even the referee couldn't catch him @ 140"

Agree...Machida by whatever way he chooses.
I'll go with Browne
Shogun by destruction. IMO, Silva is tailor made for Shogun's style.
Shields

1. While I love me some Machida I'm not sure this is a sure thing. He really hasn't looked great since KO'ing Rashad. Randy is so old and slow that I dont really count that.
2. Eh
3. 2 strikers but one is Shogun
4. Shields by decision

I actually think Machida was looking great against Jones. That elbow just took it out of him. And I have always thought Bader was a bit overrated.

Yeah I'm going to second this. Jones has dismantled everyone except Machida in that first round. Considering how dominant he has been I'd say that was Machida's best showing. He was aggressive and retained his unique style.

Hector Lombard vs Brian Stann
Tim Boetsch vs Michael Bisping.

Two fights I really like.

tim was fighting at 205 for a while. he was a member at the old mmi board. he has a great side kick which is rarely utilized in mma.

I want to see Stann and Lombard too. I think this will be a good one. We get to see how good Lombard is now
