They sold much faster than the media announced, it was actually in 28 minutes, but my friend had an HSBC account and managed to buy 4 tickets.
So fucking pumped, im a huge fan, and theres tons of heros fighting.
Shogun vs Forrest
Forrest was shogun first fight in the UFC, he totally derailed his hype train and went on to become the LHW champion defeating Rampage, now both are sort of in the same position in the LHW rankings, and you can bet Shogun will want to avenge that loss in home ground, but forrest is no slouch and I think he could steal a UD if he fights smart.
Anderson vs Okami
Okami by the best fight of his life. Dont know why, I just know Okami will leave with the belt that night.
On paper the only thing Okami got going for him, is the fact that he isnt horrible in any one area, and probably has better TDs and TDD, excelent jab, he can do well if he uses the Sonnen gameplan, his submission defense is miles ahead of Sonnen.
Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Brendan Schaub
Sadly, I think Minotauro is making a fool of himself, he should wait more before fighting again, or retiring, Shaub is not a better fighter, but his body works, and any HW and KO another HW out, even if nog is not out, judges can give Shaube the TKO after some right hand enters and he swarms minotauro.
Minotauro can win by sub as always, but I think thats the worse gameplan you can have nowdays unless you are like GSP or Brock Lesnar

If the arena is anything like most of the NA stadiums they use, then even the back ass row is still great. You will watch the monitors for grappling, but even the people ringside do that. Plus you see down into the cage, so you don't miss much on striking.
Man I'm insanely jealous of you op! Interesting pick with okami. I'd still have to take silva but I do think okami has a chance to win. Flying armbar perhaps?

I hope so! better than a grappling oriented decision
