I'm pretty sure Brock was at 265 for his last fight

I cant understand how Hamill/Bisbing was anyting other than 30-27 Hamill. MAYBE a 29-28 Hamill if you give him the 3rd. And that's being generous. Whatever.

In the 2nd and 3rd, Hammill pretty much only did 2 takedowns with no follow up attacks. I thought he won but I could see why he lost a decision.

It wasn't a robbery and I can kinda see why Bisping won, I was expecting him to take out Hammill because he kept putting his guard down.

Also it would probably benefit him to lose some muscle mass if he wants to be able to hang with strikers that have takedown defense. That muscle is great in terms of grappling but It will slow him down while throwing a punch. Also it would again benefit him to lose some muscle mass because he will be in better shape. All that big muscle he has eats up his oxygen supply and will tire him out a lot if he is in a fight that goes the distance. |

Was a cool card, I did only pick one fight though. I got the Marcus Davis by submission, almost shit myself though when he took that head kick and dropped. Great job by him though on recovering.
I also felt Hamill won the fight 29-28. I felt he won the first 2 rounds and then had a lack luster 3rd round (although to be fair, they both had a lack luster 3rd round). I was impressed by how he went out and stalked Bisping down and choose to stand with Bisping instead of relying on his wrestling. The biggest thing that showed though is that Bisping will not do well against the top 205 because he is to small for his division. He needs to make a move to middleweight quick. He has been talking about it a lot in recent interviews I have seen of him, so hopefully with this last fight it will be enough to push him to do that. Quit hating on Mirko. The guy's career isnt "done". He had a bad fight and will continue to have bad fights as long as he stays in the heavyweight division in the UFC. 205 is calling that dudes name. I thought Randy was a small heavyweight at 228, and Mirko only ways 220. Cro Cop just got outclassed by a much bigger and equally experienced kickboxer in Kongo. He would tear ass through the 205lb division. Rampage looked good, and definetly deserves the undisputed title. He controlled Henderson much better on the ground then I thought he would. Now maybe Henderson will stop trying to fight the bigger and stronger guys and concentrate on giving the UFC's 185 division some backbone. |

The reason why i would have said draw is because, even though Hamill was taking him down basically whenever. He wasnt doing anything once he got him down. Infact Bisping's guard was rather impressive. He controlled Hamills hands and survived.
The way Bisping acted in the post fight press conferences was just stupid tho. He showed he's a true dick. |

I was thinking, does anyone see MMA ever becoming an Olympic sport? It only seems logical. Other "combat sports" (using that term loosely) in Boxing and Wrestling are in the Olympics and with its popularity in Japan, Brazil and now state-side it only seems to be the logical progression.
Dunno, just thinking out loud. |

With all the media hype leading up to Rampage/Liddell I would've thought UFC'd be doing better..

Not really on topic but WEC has been great lately.. I just wish they'd interview fighters and whatnot after matches so it'd be easier to "get to know" the fighters..

MMA won't ever be in the Olympics. It's too brutal a sport, for the demographic that market execs want to attract. Sucks, but thats how things are run these days.

Cro Cop don't train hard enough. IF he wants to still be in the sport he needs to make a change. He has got to where he is becaue of his hard kick but he has nothing else. Maybe some loss in a row is good for him to make a change. Or he quits. Either way this Cro Cop is done bein sucessful

I dunno if Cro Cop can fight in a cage. His best attacks were when he cornered guys in the ring and closed down the space and he can't do that in a cage. Also guys have seen what you can do if you can circle to his right side - limit his left kick attacks. His ground game is miles better than Kongo's and he didn't even try and use it his advantage.

Loving Chris Lebens fighting style right now. The heel kicks to the back of the thighs and the foot stomps against the fence. Awsome stuff.

Leben and Martin both looked like they were in terrible shape. Leben is always in terrible shape though and looks like hes about to pass out half way through the fight. Gotta give him credit for having that explosiveness at the end though.

I like Thomas and Florian okay. I kinda hope to see Din pick up the win tonight though. I'm curious to see what kind of shape he is in. If he loses tonight, he's probably about done.
