wonder why he didn't throw a shitload of knees to the hamstrings of Barnett to end the round there? maybe he was just catching his breath....

DC is showing great restraint and not rushing the finish. He looks more seasoned than a 10 fight veteran

agreed.

And it's refreshing to see two HWs with great gas tanks who aren't completely dead after one round. On to the 5th!

I hope he can pull this off. The Louisiana fighters going 5 rounds, it's a bitch when you can't sit for 5 rounds. Pacing a path in the living room.

can yall imagine if some of these wrestlers (Cormier, Jon Jones, etc) would've learned how to throw a punch/kick when they were little kids, and not fully grown adults. Pretty scary to think about.....

jsut got back home to watch the last fight I loved what cormier did but little disappointed with what he did in the last round. I totally understand why he ran like that but still don't like it when fighters do that.

Cormiers hips and hand speed won him the fight. Barnett couldn't land anything.

he really does look like the black fedor

it sucks he didn't get started until he was 30. It will be interesting to see where his career goes from here.....

Lol at those that thought DC would get sub'd. That's not the way he'll ever get beat.

Daniel's going UFC. That was the last fight on his Strikeforce contract.

Riiiiight....

Barnett was/is very capable of subbing Cormier. I'd love to see Cormier sit in Werdums guard.


Coker already said the winner of the GP would still have to fight one more fight before moving on to the UFC

What about Melendez? I'd love it if Dana has Joe Silva match up Gilbert and Nate for a number-one contender spot.

That would be epic
