I think you can forget about UK shows being of the same proportion as the US shows due to logistics. I think they will always be considered satellite shows such as the airbase or army fights.
Silva and Rampage aren't that famous to the TUF generation and there's no titles involved. Though Rampage had no game face at the weigh ins, he looked knackered and not really with it, Silva got rowdy and pushed him away to no response. I'm a huge Rampage fan so I hope he kicks off properly tonight.
Cheick Kongo was pretty funny at the weigh-ins, he did that 'intimidating' face shove and Al Turk didn't even blink. Total fail. I hope Al Turk destroys him.
So all I need now is Big Nog to break Mir's arm, Rashad to KO Griffin and Rampage to powerslam Wand to win for a good close to 2008.
