The Leben fight on paper is more exciting than the Koscheck and Diego fights. He's fighting a former pro boxer and you know how Leben likes to stand and bang.

Arlovski is on the undercard because of his contract etc. Hopefully theres some quick finishes on the main card, I'd love to see some of the undercard fights.

i prefer the tactical side of mma rather than some muppet who likes to bang, fighters like kosheck and sanchez are alot better and there gona do alot more thingsin the ufc than leben.
koshecks last too fights have bin main event fights under serra vs pierre. ill be disipointed if the donnt broad cast the fight.
and sakara is such a great boxer he got fuckin knocked out buy houghsten alexander.
im not dissin the fight id just preffer to watch BETTER fighters

I get where you are coming from.

But the UFC is looking to put on a great show, there are more casual MMA fans that watch the UFC than there are die hards like me, you and the guys that post on this forum. The casual fans like a stand up brawl and that's why I think this is one the main card. It's going to be an exciting fight. I personally would prefer to see Andrei, but nevermind.

As for Sakara, he is a damn good boxer. But his boxing hasn't translated well to MMA, if you take Kimbos latest fight his boxing in that was perfect (Fair enough it was against Tank Abbot) but he had the right ingredients for MMA. Nice head movement, standed a bit more square to avoid the takedown etc.

I'm not too sure about Sakara's heart. When he fought Mcfedries he had him hurt and then shot for a lazy takedown took one hard shot and curled up. I expect Leben to win this fight, but anything can happen.
