Title:Mike Goldberg's quick thoughts on UFC 100 - http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/sports/mma/blog/2009/07/mike_goldberg_quick_thoughts_o.html
Description:I spoke to the Voice of the Octagon, Mike Goldberg, on Thursday as he was heading into a production meeting to get his thoughts on UFC 100. I also asked him about his broadcasting career, working with Joe Rogan and how working for the UFC is different from working for a station. Part II of the interview will be up next week, but here’s what he had to say about UFC 100.

On what has him the most excited for UFC 100
Georges St. Pierre and Thiago Alves. To me it’s the two best welterweights in the world. They are young and hungry and explosive and both are extremely well-rounded. I’ve said for the past few years that the biggest threat to GSP was Thiago Alves and to me that’s the fight, from a pure MMA point of view, that I’m the most jacked about

What could be the sleeper fight of the night
Stephan Bonnar and Mark Coleman. It’s a prelim fight but Coleman has been pushing himself to a different level. I talked to his training partners and they said he hasn’t been this hungry in a long time. I’m excited to see Mark prepared mentally and physically to fight at 205. Randy Couture was wearing a belt at age 44 and I don’t know if Coleman can get there, but his fight with Bonnar will be interesting.
