It is probably a good thing that this UFC fight is starting
later than normal. There are some good fights lined up, but these guys are all
hungry for a win so I imagine that they are going to be action-packed from the
start. Nate Diaz is a vicious fighter and as a natural born scrapper his win
over Cerrone will be something worth watching. I have already ordered UFC 141
in HD from my job at DISH because they always deliver me the best HD picture. I
want to be able to see in the eyes of both Lesnar and Overeem because these are
two guys that are going to end 2011 with a bang!
