UFC/MMA (...SPOILERS WILL BE POSTED)

Didn't see that coming.

I had a bad feeling after Dos Santos got him with the first punch in the face. 

Velasquez looked like he was stunned a bit after the first couple.

Thought he was going to at least defend himself for a few min but no. 

I was hoping V was going to win but would love to see Lesnar win now have Dos Santos beat the sh*t out of him too!   

[duccarlos]

I hope Big Country kicks Lesnar's ass. I'm hoping he never wins in the octagon again.

That was about the biggest punch I've ever seen.

[dropstharockalot]

That kinda sucked.

[IZ]

That was the Silva of old. Damn!  "Dae Han" is going to need some nose work after those knees to the face!

Hendo..didn't think it would go that long

[duccarlos]

I didn't get to see it, but it sounds like Hendo/Rua was epic.

[dropstharockalot]

Once Wand figured out he could walk through Cung Le's fru-fru techniques, it was a vintage muay thai axe murder.

I must be the only guy alive that thought the Rua/Henderson fight didn't live up to the hype.  It looked to me like both fighters were tentative and held back due to the two additional rounds.  Rua also seemed a bit out of shape, like he didn't have a good camp or something.

[IZ]

Thought the Hendo/bisbing fight was better. This one was good. Kind of long though. Not sure I like this 5 round rule.

[dropstharockalot]

Ah, possible explanation for why Hendo looked flat and gassed after three...

First: any guesses as to whether the fighter in this story is blowing smoke or is really a UFC participant?  if so, who do you suppose it is?

Second: 140

Jones
Mir
Lil' Nog
Ebersole
Hominick
Polish Expirement!
Phillipou
Hallman
Jabouin

[IZ]

Link doesn't work?   

Agreed with all the 140 predictions

BTW..anyone catch those fights last weekend from TUF? 

 

[MikeZ]

Miller looked bad during the fight and even worse after.
Still don't like Bisbing though

[IZ]

First time seeing Miller fight.  Looks like the last too and I think he knows it after that performance.  Almost sounded like he was begging for another fight when he was talking.  He Tries way too hard to be a clown.  Agreed though... He is better than bisbing.

[dropstharockalot]

Mir's kimura on Big Nog was horrific.

I've got no answer for Jon Jones.  Maybe "Spider" Silva at 205 (if/when he handles Sonnen in the rematch?)
