OK, we’re ready to go with our live coverage of UFC 86 headlined by a light heavyweight title match between Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson and the working man’s hero (or was that Dusty Rhodes?) Forrest Griffin. On the undercard there’s a very interesting matchup between Patrick Cote and Ricardo Almeida. We’re back in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Events Center which is a thankful change from the seemingly endless run of shows in flyover country. Montreal was cool, but Las Vegas is where big fights should be held. Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan are running down the card–Rogan is apparently trying to raise his sartorial game as he’s wearing a button front shirt that’s *not* black–its kind of a grey/off white type deal. Ricardo Almeida vs. Patrick Cote is being previewed now–Almeida is a BJJ monster, but Cote is just a tough dude with some heavy hands. Chris Lytle vs. Josh Koscheck is also on the card.

Tyson Griffin vs. Marcus Aurelio starts the action….
