BJ Penn and Anderson Silva put titles on the line at UFC 112

Anderson Silva and BJ Penn are ready for their heavy underdog challengers at UFC 112. Frankie Edgar challenges Penn and Damian Maia challenges Silva. In both cases, the challengers are being given no chance. I don't think they have a chance either and both of these matches are weak. It's a sign that the UFC is still lacking a decent level of competition. Good fighters still exist in other major organizations like Dream and Strikeforce and overall competition in MMA is still not at the level of other sports. That should change as the sport grows but for now we will have to deal with the level of competition we'll see at UFC 112. Unfortunately, it won't be enough to make it worth the price of admission as much as I hate to admit that. Look out for the April 17th Strikeforce card though as that will be amazing (not to mention free on TV).
