Cage Cast 41: UFC 105 Preview (and some apologies)

Just a reminder to check out our podcast preview for UFC 105.

WKR's latest edition of Cage Cast previews UFC 105: Couture vs. Vera.

UFC 105 is your standard UFC U.K. card as it is loaded with local products and features a questionable main event.

The main event features a light heavyweight bout between Randy Couture and Brandon Vera. WKR is a little confused as to what the UFC gains by Couture winning --maybe a title shot against Machida (which would be a reach to begin with) but due to the recent controversy it looks like Shogun will get a rematch-- not to mention the fact that  if Vera pulls the upset it will damage the brand of a very popular fighter.

Next we talk about Mike Swick vs. Dan Hardy. Of course, the conversation instantly devolves into a discussion about who matches up better against Georges St. Pierre, as the winner is expected to fight St. Pierre for the title.

Michael Bisping usually doesn't receive a lot of love from Zak but even he thinks Bisping will beat Kang. Spencer thinks that if Denis Kang takes this fight to the ground he will win.

Finally we talk about the two U.K. TUF 9 winners and their respective fights. The consensus is that we like James Wilks and think he has a lot of upside while we are nowhere near sold on Ross Pearson.
