Kenny Florian will be filling in for Joe Rogan at UFC 134. Apparently Joe will be filming NBC's "Fear Factor" instead of calling the fights in Rio...

Got this from Karyn Bryant's YouTube page. Is Rogan seriously gonna give up Rio for Fear Factor. Are you fucking kidding me. Any other event, it'll be like w/e, but Rio. NBC must be breaking him some serious bread in for him to do that.

Could also have to do with his contract.

edit: in before the return of "No Joe, fear was NOT a factor ME!"

Joe Rogan doesn't wanna get that Toxoplasma.

I like this idea. The losers of the fights should have to do Fear Factor to get some bonus money. I'd love to see Rashad Evans eat a dick.

I think the fear factor aspect should be in place of the pride yellow card so if they commit a foul or are being inactive then Joe Rogan jumps into the cage and does some fear factor.

[Hitoshura]

I have Saturday requested off for this event, I hope it lives up. Anyone have their picks for the main card yet at least?

[Blarg]

Anderson, Shogun, Schaub, Barboza, Cane. I really hope Nog can win his fight, I have no idea why they gave him a guy who hits hard considering he doesn't seem like he can take punches anymore. He is one of the most loved Brazilians and they will likely see him knocked out cold.

[Thuronn]

Lol

Glad someone got the refernce/listens to his podcast.

While I agree with you on his chin. I think he's going to pull it off, dudes at home in front of his friends and family, this fight is going to be full out fucking WAR lol. Can't wait

If Nog intends to only box like he has recently I don't like his odds but with his surgeries allowing his legs/hips to work well again maybe he wants to play BJJ again in which case it's up in the air for me whether he can safely get it to the ground.

[AidenCarby]

You know, I never knew that he was run over by a truck when he was a child, holy shit O.o

Nog's been training with Eric Albarracin on his wrestling so I can definitely see him taking this to the ground to work his BJJ. We also talking about someone who's career is known for him taking ridiculous ass beatings and coming out with a win. In front of his home crowd too with him completely healthy, I wouldn't count him out.

what brazilian kid hasn't?

[Andalusian girls]

Silva-Griffin-Nog-Barboza-Cane

think Shogun is gonna have problems with Forrest's size and pace again, and judging by his last major injury he didn't look like shit for 1 (Griffin) but 2 (Coleman) fights before getting it together.

Unless Silva breaks his rib again Okami has nothing for him.

Nedkov is just a little too raw to deal with someone like Cane right now, Barboza is better in every facet than Pearson and unless he's secretly been hiding a glass beard this whole time he'll be ok, and man oh man I just don't want Schaub to beat Nog.

[archibaldcrane]

I'm kinda hoping for a non-brazil sweep just for lulz.

[Hitoshura]

Silva via decapitation.
