FanNation - The Republic of Sport

As a PRIDE and IFL fan, the choice is an easy one for me. Mousasi, Belfort, Babalu, Fedor, Barnett, and Taurosivisious on the same card with Rothwell and others, Affliction is the only way to go in my opinion.

I accidently hit "cancel" and paniced and hit "post" five times. If nobody post on ther ones they should go away quickly.

Wow, yeah great multiple posts. No freakin way. UFC is too main stream! Babalu Sobral sucks and I haven't the slightest why people still like him. Barnett isn't what he once was and the only reason to watch that card would be to see if by some miracle Barnett could win. If you are a true MMA fan you are going to watch both anyhow.

I agree, but I threw up the hypothetical situation where you could ony watch one to see which one people thought would be more interesting.

I get them both for free so I will watch them both for free!

If I had $44.95 in my pocket I would have $44.95 more than I do right now.

I'd hopefully be in Costa Rica. Nothing else need be said.

UFC 100

UFC 100. It's what I started watching first and represents MMA for me (unless Pride was still around).

Uhhhh UFC 100, obviously. The only fight I give a **** about on the Affliction card is Fedor/Barnett. There are a few other good fighters on the card, but the matchups are nothing compared to what UFC 100 has to offer. Don't get me wrong, I'll definitely watch the Affliction card as well...but it's a no-brainer if I were somehow forced to choose between the two.

I am going to watch both for free, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I follow UFC closer, so that would be my choice.
But I would be very upset if i could not watch Affliction too

The single fight that I'm looking forward to the most is Mir-Lesnar so I guess that's the card I'd pick.

However, I completely agree with you that Affliction:Trilogy is stacked with some great fighters ----- Mousasi, Belfort, Fedor, etc... ---- so it's actually a very tough decision.

What I don't understand is why on the same night? UFC100 has been announced for months and months. Why even compete? Egos...yeeesh.

Love Barnette, have for years, figure he's the only guy that's gonna give Fedor a run.

I'm gonna watch both, but If I had to choose 1, it would be UFC, if for no other reason then the water cooler talk on Monday. Unfortunately mainstream wins.

It's not on the same night...the guy is just presenting a hypothetical situation in which you could only choose one of the two events to watch.

Fedor is the best MMA fighter standing right now...But unfortunately you need an interesting opponent for him to fight. I am more interested to see how Lesnar has improved from his last fight.

Definitely, Kat. Until they start throwing Fedor with some competition and I realize that Fedor's last couple fights have been against ranked opponents. I don't put too much stock in what other people think about who's #1,2,3 etc., because that's their opinion, mine is different. The best HW talent is in the UFC, IMO.

ufc 100

since they don't show affliction in Iraq I guess UFC 100 it is Go Mir and Alves and Hendo

On a slightly dif note, UFC is going to DESTROY Affliction with ratings....Look at the promotion alone. There is stuff on spike TV all week, UFC.com had the ufc 100 site up and ready the day after ufc 99..They are a buisness powerhouse.
