Anyone else excited for this event? Which fighters do you think will win? what fighters are you cheering for. I am cheering matt serra to win and i hope rashad evans wins. I think machida will win the fight but i will be cheering rashad. If evans does win it will be HUGE considering barely anyone has been able to connect a punch to machida. Everyone thinks machida is invincible and its time someone prove that wrong.
 
Can't wait, I hope Evans gets beat. Hughes is going to pound Serra, if not, Hughes needs to give it up cause Serra is not that good. Overall is looks to be a good card.
 
hmmmm......I think machida is a beast and a little underestimated by some, I think this will be his breakout match and finally get a shot at the title. Serra vs Hughes, maybe last year or the year before but personnally i think hughes needs to retire before he is humiliated like liddell, quit while ur ahead hughes, he used to be unbeatable but now is struggling just to win a round.

Well ufc 98 is on right now on pay per view. Its been good so far and shawn sherk has lost to frank edgaer. Anyways for your information foxhound this is the breakout match of the year and machida is INDEED getting his title shot TONIGHT against evans. Man am i nervous. i am cheering for evans but i know machida is a very tough opponent and will most likely lose. If evans does pull off the win (which i am praying right now he will) it will prove that he is the best and it will set up another great grudge match evans vs rampage jackson (which after jacksons win at ufc 96 you seen both of them face each other and tak shit to each other. jackson was the rightful #1 contendor for the belt but ufc bowed to public demand and let machida go ahead. I would have loved to see a jackson evans fight which would have been epic.
 
update

heres an update of whos winning. evans and machida are fighting right now

Matt Hughes defeats Matt Serra by Unanimous Decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)
Drew McFedries defeats Xavier Foupa-Pokam by TKO (Strikes) - Round 1 @ 0:37
Chael Sonnen defeats Dan Miller by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Frank Edgar defeats Sean Sherk by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

it was a very close decision in the huges and sera fight and from what i know it could have gone either way.
 
evans loses

machida is the new champion and now jackson will face machida later this year. machida will win again because it rashad could not win then jackson doesnt have a chance.

Lyoto's attacks were superb. Left low kick followed by left straight. Man, he just snuck that punch in there. I saw Lyoto practicing tons of low-kick/mid-kick to straight-punch combos in the dressing room before the fight, and he really used his kicks to set up his punches quite nicely during the fight.

Since Rampage isn't known to really check leg-kicks, I have a hard time seeing him beating Machida when they fight. Also, since Lyoto was able to takedown Tito and stuff his takedowns, I really don't see Rampage out-wrestling either. Style-wise, I think I would like to see Machida fight Shogun Rua then Jardine after that.
