UFC on Fox 4 - August 4, Los Angeles

**MrJ** · Posted On: 7/24/2012 10:14am

We have a very interesting and, happy to say it, free card coming up in a couple of Saturdays. Looks like a better line-up than many PPV's.

Always good to see Shogun, Machida and J-Lau - and Mike "Quick" Swick is back after a very long lay-off. I am looking forward to it.

So, any picks and how they win it?

MAIN CARD (FOX)

Mauricio "Shogun" Rua vs. Brandon Vera
Lyoto Machida vs. Ryan Bader
Travis Browne vs. Ben Rothwell
Joe Lauzon vs. Jamie Varner

PRELIMINARY CARD (FUEL TV)

Cole Miller vs. Nam Phan
Phil Davis vs. Wagner Prado
Mike Swick vs. DaMarques Johnson
Josh Grispi vs. Rani Yahya
Phil De Fries vs. Oli Thompson
Manny Gamburyan vs. Michihiro Omigawa

PRELIMINARY CARD (Facebook)

Ulysses Gomez vs. John Moraga

I like this card, lhw needs some sorting out, lots of great fighters. Also there is not an obvious next fight for Jones. This gives some potentially exciting matches for new viewers.

I'm going for Shogun and Machida, that way they can then have a rematch, and then the winner can probably face Jones. Seriously, who else is gonna face him at this point?

I also hope Phil Davis can show an improved striking game. If he works on that, he has the chance to become a contender.

Very good card, at least for the name value.

Anyone know if this is on TV in Australia?

This is quite the Jones event. Has there been a similar Anderson Silva event?

I guess the UFC is trying to cut Brandon Vera again.

Machida has this... I hope.

Nam Pham is back. Lets hope he does better this time.

This card is so stacked, can't wait. I'm interested in nearly all of the fights.
