Tickets for UFC 127 on sale now at Ticketek if you're a fight club member. If not they go on sale Thursday I believe.

I have the fight club code to buy now so PM me if you don't wish to wait.

The Fight Club code is unique so is only good for one purchase (I think?).

I got 2 seats in Section 18 / Row A so pretty happy.

Well I think others used it as it was posted in a public forum. I had no problems with it. It may not be teh actual Fight Club code then, either was I got tickets with it!

Couldn't get to a computer this morning, me & my mate missed out on a ticket each.

Tossing up whether we want to pay $200 for bronze seats, off ebay.

Missed out too. There's no way I'm buying off eBay. They'll be back again.

Strikeforce is being shown at random times on 73 for anyone that's interested too.

The last ever WEC event went down today and it featured the greatest MMA move ever!

Incredible. Who is that guy?
Assume Dana will be all over him

Anthony Pettis.

He beat Henderson for the WEC Lightweight title so now that the UFC has merged with the WEC, he's the automatic number #1 contender to the winner of Edgar/Maynard.

I gotta admit, I prefer to watch a master Jiu Jitsu artist at work than a striker/kicker, but that has to be the best kick ever.

It even takes a second for the crowd to react, as if they can't believe what they just saw.

Jon Jones looks so promising.

Jon Jones looks so promising.

He does, but I think its too early for a title shot. The kid could be anything and is the next superstar of the UFC, so I'm not sure why they're pushing him so hard right now. A loss to Shogun won't kill his career but it could slow him down.

However, Dana knows what he's doing and Jones is likely to come out with some tricky spinning elbow and knock Shogun out.

Clearly, they were booking on the fly, but doing it in the ring after the match was very cool. Would have been way cooler if Rashad snuck in behind Shogun and hit him with a chair shot WWE style!!

I guess the Vince McMahon comparisons only extend so far with Dana.

I think their hands were tied. Evans is injured so Jones is next in line. He's got the momentum behind him so it makes sense from a booking stand point to make this fight happen now rather than later.

Thiago Silva is one that comes to mind that could have been put into the title fight, he's booked for UFC 130 against Rampage so it would be pretty hard to change that now. You would expect the winner of that to get a title shot.

I'm looking forward to it and I expect for Bones to come out on top at 128.
