is this on TV at all?

Roger's gonna win, but i hope he submits him

is this on TV at all?

not usually televised... there might be a stream but eventually they will be up


sucks tho i dont see jacare

yeah for some reason jacare is out of the lineup. I'm stoked about this year's as I havent really been in the loop before to catch the earlier ones.

damnit this stuff should be on PPV or something!

I wonder why Lister dropped out.

tore his bicep or something like that

ooo

damn i dont think this will be as fun to watch i think that they are both to techniqual and it will be slow and methodical. lister i think makes it more exciting.

Damn, I am seriously thinking of driving out to NJ for this. Is anybody else going?

i see this match ending in spectacular fashion.

im pretty sure rolles gracie isn't gonna be grappling...

^^^^^^
Must be a different guy. If not, he's JUST THAT GOOD! Warrr Zombie Rolls!!

Really, I need to see this match. 2 phenomenal grapplers in their prime. Undefeated. Burly. Hairy. Unusually large palms. It's going to be phenomenal.

Should be pretty good, I see Arona having the advantage to start because he has better takedowns but I think Roger will pull out the victory in the end.
