UFC 106: Ortiz vs. Griffin, a ten-bout card scheduled for 10
p.m. ET Saturday. It’s the one time you can look at men in briefs
while keeping your browser history clean.
7:02 p.m. ET --
George Sotiropoulos vs.
Jason Dent
Two reality-show headshots in a prelim fight with potential to be
witnessed by hundreds. Dent sporting what looks like a viking skull on
his shirt. Right for any occasion. 155 even. Sotiropoulos is also 155.
7:04 p.m. ET --
Fabricio Camoes vs.
Caol Uno
Uno hasn’t won a UFC fight in seven years, but he’s here and he's
trying. Camoes is 155.5. Uno, 155.5, looks like he's put on some
muscle. That, or PX90 works.
7:05 p.m. ET --
Brock Larson vs.
Brian Foster
171 for Foster. Larson has to doff the shorts to make 171.
7:08 p.m. ET --
Kendall Grove vs.
Jake Rosholt
Rosholt is 185.5. He dons what looks like a sharktooth necklace, but I
could be way off. If he pulled those himself, Grove might be in
trouble. 186 even. He's a good head taller than Rosholt.
7:09 p.m. ET --
Ben Saunders vs.
Marcus Davis
Saunders is 170 even. Davis also 170.
7:11 p.m. ET --
Amir Sadollah vs.
Phil Baroni
Baroni sporting the IMAX shades. 170. Sadollah looks like the kids
Baroni ate during lunch in high school. 170. A cranky Baroni spews
some talk at him during the staredown.
7:13 p.m. ET --
Luis Arthur Cane vs.
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
205 for "little" Nog. 205 for Cane. I hope Nog wins, if for no other
reason than to be spared the "Cane is Able" headlines Sunday morning.
7:14 p.m. ET --
Paulo Thiago vs.
Jacob Volkmann
170 for Volkmann. A half-dozen people on the stage watch Thiago undress. 169.
7:17 p.m. ET --
Josh Koscheck vs.
Anthony Johnson
Koscheck’s hoped-for beginning to a biweekly fight scheduled for 2010.
Johnson is 170, which actually draws applause. They know he likes his
tubs of peanut butter. These are clued-in fans. Koscheck is 171. He
puts his shoes back on, presumably for traction in case Johnson wants
to rush him.
7:19 p.m. ET --
Tito Ortiz vs.
Forrest Griffin
The UFC’s third choice for a main event. It’s nice to be wanted.
Griffin ambles up to the stage. 205. 204 for Ortiz. Arianny shakes her
head at his choice of black socks with sneakers.
