Dennis Hallman vs. Thiago Tavares
Shane Roller vs. Jacob Volkmann
Diego Nunes vs. Bart Palaszewski
Phil Harris vs. Darren Uyenoyama
Marcus LeVesseur vs. Carlo Prater
Mike Pierce vs. Aaron Simpson

A pretty solid prelim card, with a real good main card. A few fights on here were slated for the phantom UFC 151 card (Castillo/Johnson, Ellenberger/Heiron.) Some exciting fights for sure.

Give me...

Pierce
Prater
Harris
Nunes
Volkmann
Tavares
Johnson
Stephens
Neer
da Silva (FOTN)
Ellenberger
Browne

The A-Train is a personal favorite fighter of mine. Will be interested to see how he fairs. He's coming off a win, and another would be great, to get him back up in the shuffle of better fights.

I'm also really interested in seeing Dodson fight. He was so explosive on TUF, and the way he did T.J. Dillashaw from Team Alpha Male, was crazy. Dodson is one of the most explosive and powerful fighters in the fly weight division by far.

That's the fight I feel can go either way. Dodson, like you said, is explosive but Jussier da Silva is still widely considered the top 125'er in the world. It's going to be a good one, that's for sure.

That's a real solid main card

Shane Roller vs. Jacob Volkmann could challenge for FOTN

MINNEAPOLIS – UFC lightweight Jeremy Stephens might not be be competing at tonight's UFC on FX 5 event.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) has learned the Minneapolis Police Department arrested the hard-hitting lightweight this morning. He's being held without bail at the Hennepin County Public Safety Facility.

Official records indicated Stephens was detained in relation to an out-of-state felony charge. However, police officials could not offer specifics to the case. Representatives for Stephens didn't return messages.

UFC officials could not initially be reached for comment. However, UFC President Dana White told MMAjunkie.com he still expects Stephens to compete.

It has also been confirmed that the winner of Dodson/Jussier gets a shot at Mighty Mouse for the Flyweight title. Also, the winner of the main event apparently makes some big strides in the Heavyweight title picture.

Yep read about the Jeremy Stephens arrest earlier today on MMA Junkie. Looks like he won't be fighting tonight, despite reports that he will. To bad, I wanted to see his fight.

Just realized that not only do I not get Fuel on campus TV, but I also don't get F/X. **** this.

UD40 · 10-05-2012, 06:05 PM

Ellenberger/Heiron up next. Seems as if Stephens wasn't able to fight like Dana said.

UD40 · 10-05-2012, 06:53 PM

Holy shit! What a KO from Big Foot!!

**23AJ** · 10-05-2012, 06:55 PM

Big foot is a great fighter. Huge power. Beautiful KO. It does seem Browne was rattled once he injured himself though. Great win by Silva.
