It's finally December, which means we're arguably entering the best month of MMA in all of 2012. Bellator has good shows, there are excellent regional events and three very, very good UFC shows. Oh, and two of the best boxers of our era are going to throw hands this Saturday. It's a great time to be a combat sports fan.

Join me at 1 p.m. ET to talk about these issues and more during our live chat. We'll preview Saturday's event both with UFC on Fox 5 and Pacquiao vs. Marquez IV (if there's demand). We'll also talk about Anderson Silva's manager throwing cold water on the possibility of a superfight with GSP ever happening. But the good news is that even if it doesn't happen, there is so much good MMA this month it's almost scary.

Anything is up for discussion. Nothing (well, almost nothing) is off limits.

As is customary, I'll post the video window here as the event draws near and I'll answer any questions you may have if you post them in the comments section below.
