And Din Thomas gave up literally. That was fucking stupid. He literally just stopped fighting and waited for the ref to stop, then he let him choke him out.

He shouldn't have taunted Kenny Florian and done that little shuffle or whatever back to the middle. All he did was piss him off and thats what he gets.

I think they should've stripped Sherk of the Lightweight title as part of his punishment for the steroids.
Penn vs. Florian for the vacant title would be a good matchup, if Penn will stay a lightweight. |

And as a Sherk fan, I sincerely hope that he gets his appeal (yes, I realise he hast virtually no chance).

I'm not sure what there doing with UFC 78, but as of now the only big name attached to the card is Karo Parisyan. I'm not sure what other ME there is in the works, but they moved BJ Penn to the 79 card with Serra vs Hughes. The only thing making sense to me right now is that maybe they'll give Penn the winner of the Fitch vs Sanchez match and give Karo the main event match against GSP. And then the winner of those matches decides who to face the winner of Hughes vs Serra? That would make the most sense to me atleast.
Also i've heard that Nog is getting a title shot against Couture. |

Just for the record, are we discussing the Ultimate Fighter series here or elsewhere? Dunno if the other British guys care about the spoilers. I don't give a rats ass personally.

Is this just a discussion of UFC or should it just be named the MMA Thread so people have a place to talk about non-UFC crap?

WOWWWWW
Griffin beat Shogun badly. Wasnt really even close. I'm kinda stunned and i really dont understand why Shogun was given Griffin as his first fight. Really a bad business move. |

Fitch/Diego was a great mat fight, Diego's scramble is pretty crazy
and why the fuck didn't Chuck do anything about the leg kicks? He was going through the motions out there |

Honestly I don't think Forest/Shogun was a bad business move. Dana just solidified his baby (TUF) and probably just locked up millions in advertising for it. Sure, Shogan - a huge name - lost, but he just made Forest and TUF legit.

TUF was already pretty legit though..hopefully Rua isn't another CroCop. Im pissed I missed the ppv though..was it pretty good?
And wtf @ Jardine winning |

That really was a great PPV and two totally stunning upsets. Griffin finally lived up to his hype in that fight, in my eyes.

I bet money that Liddell will take a sebatical ala Couture and come back in a year or so to dominate..

"finally lived up to his hype"?? WTF He has been the man since first coming onto The Ultimate Fighter.. I mean, fuck, he's only ever lost to Dan Severn, Jeremy Horn, Tito Ortiz, and Keith Jardine.. The only one you could say was an upset is Jardine who beat the most dominant LHW Champion if the past five years last night.. Every fight he's had has been uber entertaining and he's beaten some great fighters.. So explain how he hasn't "lived up to his hype"?? p.s. Joe Roggan was on Ferrell on Howward Stern's channel on Sirius yesterday and a caller asked him about Brock Lesner.. He said they went to dinner recently and said Lesner is a "gorrilla".. He (Rogan) also said Lesner weighs atleast a "solid 290lbs".. But he also said he is close to signing so this brings me back to the question of his weight.. How can he fight in the US at close to 300lbs?? :dunno: |

Is that fight with Silva inked in and contracted for December or is it just a proposition still? He really doesn't need to be fighting The Axe Murderer right now. It would be a good comeback fight in a year or so, though. |

He's been entertaining, yes. But he has been typically regarded as one of the best fighters in the UFC for A LONG time. And quite frankly, he has been nowhere near the top level of the UFC. He's been one of the most overrated fighters. He's looked bad in victory and in defeat (see the second Griffin/Bonner fight). He looked okay against Tito.
He just hasn't fought anywhere near the hype that he gets from people. BUT, I really believe last night totally changed that. He came out and dominated the "#1 Lightheavyweight" in the world. Dominated. And he definately deserves his praise and to be hailed among the elite now. |

How was Shogun number one when Dan Henderson was the Pride LHW Champion and the UFC LHW Champion Rampage beat him to unify the titles??
How was he the best when he wasn't the champion of either of the two biggest promotions in the world?? |

I've got to say, last night really wrecked the rankings last night. I'd honestly say that I couldn't tell you who the number one contender to Page is now.... I wish they could do a Gran Prix
