Ufc 159 Newark, New Jersey April 27th, 2013
Jon Jones vs Chael Sonnen- lhw title fight
Michael Bisping vs Alan Belcher
Jim MIller vs Pat Healy
Cheick Kongo vs Roy Nelson
Phil Davis vs Vinny Magalhaes
 
So glad i bought a ticket to this event blindly. Best possible outcome for me personally.
 
I hope I will still be able to get some cheap tix somehow. Really pissed I didn't catch the pre-sale like I do every time they go to NJ. God damn it!. So Belcher vs. Bisping is confirmed?
 
2 weeks ago everyone said this card sucks

i bet it would have been eh if they had gotten alvarez..but because that fell through they had to throw some names on here

:eek:
 
Smh I think this fight will sell very well. I really feel like this card has the potential to have 600k plus buys. Eddie Alvarez is losing a lot of money by not being on this card
 
Never been to a UFC event before. Maybe this will be my first
 
Really, people think this card is stacked? The main event and co-headline feature 3 fighters coming off losses, with the main event looking like a total mismatch. Davis-Magalhes makes no sense based on their position in the division, Davis should be a huge fave. Kongo has looked bad in his last few fights and has the ability to make fights pretty boring and I don't see anything different in this fight. Belcher/Bisping, Miller/Healy could be exciting fights. But the other 3 have the potential to be dull fights.
 
In Sonnen I Trust! I can just never count this dude out in a fight....kind of like how I can never count John Jones out in a fight. I just have a feeling like this is gong to be a barn-burner. Anyone else?

Crazy Talk...Records don't make fights, match-ups make fights. I guarentee that you, as well as everyone else that watches WILL be thoroughly entertained with this card. It's going to be a good one.
 
Not as good as this weekend's card. On par with last weekend's card though.

I may be wrong but as of right now I just don't see it. Remember the last time we saw Davis fight a guy with really good BJJ, he admittedly stalled. Kongo's chin is failing him, he's not as quick as he once was, I can see him fighting Nelson the same way he fought Travis Browne. Either Jones walks right through Sonnen or Sonnen spends a lot of time pressing Jones up against the cage and failing on TDs and making a boring fight.

Fox 7 and UFC 156 both had that wow factor when you look at the matchups, this one not so much, IMO of course.
 
Sorry that is not really a stacked card. This weekened is a really stacked card.... can't wait
 
it looks like a good card, i would prefer a bigger co main though, i guess the fight isn't that marketable to me because both just suffered big losses, but should be a good fight.
 
i think the card is not stacked but at least it's looking good
