Looks like a fun show and I'm tempted to order. Franklin/Quarry, GSP/Sherk and Hughes/Riggs should be fun matches.
On that card, I've honestly only heard of two of the fighters, Hughes and Horn.
I've only heard of Hughes and Franklin because of their "TUF" participations. UFC is hit or miss, so unknowns shouldn't be a problem. When I first watched UFC tapes, everyone but KEn Shamrock and Dan Severn was unknown to me, and I enjoyed it a bit, even if some fights were quite shitty. :P
Sherk and GSP are essentially facing off for the right to get a shot at Hughes title.
Franklin KOed Shamrock during the first TUF finale and then dropped down to middleweight and took the title. Quarry is from the first TUF but got hurt early.
Riggs is ok but he essentially drops down a class everytime he loses a fight.
