In a country that can already take credit for awesome beer, beautiful women and head-sized schnitzel, Germany is stepping its game up to the nth degree by hosting this Saturday’s UFC 99 card. The pre-pay-per-view portion alone is worth a trip to the land of impossibly chiseled facial features.

With a lineup that features plenty of European talent, especially the up-and-comers of the lightweight and welterweight divisions, it’s time to start praying to Zeus for some quick main card matches so our thirst for undercard goodness may be quenched. In the meantime, get squared away with the knowledge and do yourself a favor: Don’t start copying Ze Germans and try to rock the man sandals.

They have a special gene that lets them get away with it.
