Smash is a bit much.

It's funny, as soon as Jones goes out, Bader starts chirping. He knew there was no way he could ever win the title as long as Jones was around. Sad part is he has about as much a chance of beating DC as he did Jones. Oh well, can't blame him for trying.

As far as Cerrone goes, he is one of my favorite fighters. But the fact is during his UFC career, every time he has been on the verge of that title shot he gets that deer in the headlights look and shits the bed. I do believe he does deserve a title shot, but not so sure about the McGregor level promotion yet. No one except maybe Brock or Ronda or Chuck have had that.

I don't think so. He is a striker but Pettis is a much better striker as we saw in their first fight. RDA is an all around beast right now and Khabib would maul him. Cowboy would be at least a 3.5 to 1 underdog against any of them.

It's because as good as Cowboy is he just cannot beat elite fighters, IMO he lost that last Benson fight. The UFC would love to have his as champ over RDA and if he was they would promote the shite out of him but I just don't see it happening and if it does it won't last long because he has no shot against Khabib. None.

Just watched the prelims. I would have taken a point away from Natal on that bullshite.

Are you ready? Are you ready? DING! Natal: PUNT TO THE NUTS!

It was very intentional and made me start pulling for a very unlikable Hall. I also think Hall won the fight.

Hall has the worst luck with decisions.

But he kind of deserves it given the poor effort he likes to give with extreme talent he has

He's a main card talent that's middling on the undercard and losing

The judging in UFC is getting worse and worse. I especially hate cards in Brazil. It absolutely doesn't get worse than those. A brazilian can get his shite pushed in for 5 rounds and win a unanimous decision.

I was thinking that if Jones would have fought Johnson that they would deduct a point on his first eyepoke. He has done it so many times and gotten away with it, not to mention Anthony Johnson has been poked in the eye so many times,

sounds like cerrone is next for a title shot against rda and jacare is going to jump over rockhold for a title shot.

I couldn't understand why Rockhold was being considered over Jacare until I realized Rockhold beat Jacare in SF

And what Rockhold did to Machida in his last fight.

Jacare has been on a tear though. His standup has looked phenomenal! Has only 4 decisions in 26 fights.

I'm glad Jacare is getting a shot but I can no doubt see why Rockhold deserves a shot. Rockhold getting creamed by Belfort is still hanging over his head. Jacare is 35 and maybe has 5 years left.

No. Dana is waiting on Weidman's timeline. Jacare's camp says he's good for September when they want the fight to happen.

Weidman keeps yapping about Madison Square, like he wants his next fight there. Apparently he knows something we don't

I'll look. From what I understood they weren't even close. Like another year or never.

Post this while I'm looking
