Diego Brandao is a beast. If he gets cardio, he will be a problem. Same for John Dodson. And they both train out of Jackson's MMA. Not a bad team to work with.

It was the last episode he first said the pussy shit..
The semifinals are: Bantamweight semifinal No. 1: Team Bisping's T.J Dillashaw vs. Team Miller's Dustin Pague Bantamweight semifinal No. 2: Team Miller's John Dodson vs. Team Miller's Johnny Bedford Featherweight semifinal No. 1: Team Bisping's Akira Corassani vs. Team Miller's Dennis Bermudez Featherweight semifinal No. 2: Team Bisping's Diego Brandao vs. Team Miller's Bryan Caraway My predictions for the finals are: Bantamweights: Bedford vs. Dillashaw Featherweights: Akira vs. Diego |

My problem with Bisping on the show is only that he does the immature shit, and then acts like he doesn't. Like when Akira went over to the other corner after the match and started doing shit, and they got pissed, and Mayhem threw water, Bisping acted like they did nothing and it was all Miller.
Also, if I was Akira, I'd be sort of pissed at Bisping since he couldn't train the one day before the fight since Bisping's "prank" made the gym unusable. |

Jesus christ! If they take their time with Dodson he could be a big star. He's got the personality and style for it.

He's the same height as Demetrious Johnson and those two put on more entertaining fights than the current champ in that division.
Brandao is a beast too. |

Brandao is the guy to watch. He has been completely dominant in the TUF. scoring KOs left and right. He has the potential to be something big.

This might be the first TUF card I've been excited for in awhile. I want to see Dodson whoop T.J.'s ass and Brandao go beast mode. Plus Miller/Bisping should be good, although I feel like Bisping's a huge step up in competition for Mayhem and wouldn't be surprised if he TKOed him.

I was ecstatic when Dodson one, and that doesn't even begin to compare to my reaction to Diego's armbar. Holy fucking shit.

Yeah for sure he earned that victory. He could have just layed on Miller landing pot shots but he made sure to get himself in position and land good enough shots to get the refs attention to end the fight. You could tell he was fairly gassed out as well.
I was really pulling for Mayhem in this fight so I'm a bit disappointed he couldn't find a way to win. Maybe it was just the pace of the fight but Mayhem gassed pretty early on. Probably something he should evaluate. |

Brandao and Dodson... Damn. I still think Diego needs a bit of polishing before he's ready for the big boys, but he's a beast when it comes to lower level competition.

I agree with Brandao needing polishing. He got caught recklessly storming in and he nearly paid for it. With the right kind of fighter he would have been put to sleep. But holy fuck MONSTER arm bar finish out of nowhere. Very explosive dangerous fighter. |

I think he's not as good as everyone wanted him to be. He has a great personality, but as a fighter his biggest accomplishment is almost beating Jake Shields.
I'm almost tempted to say it was the whole Octagon jitters/first fight back in the UFC adrenaline dump thing, but it's not like he was going against GSP in Toronto for the Welterweight strap. It was at the Palms in front of 80 drunks. He's fought in front of much bigger crowds. Didn't seem to bother Nick Diaz too much either and he had a whole shit storm around him. Even the lay-off isn't that great of an excuse. Chael, Rashad and Big Nog were off just as long or longer than he was and they decimated their opponents when they came back. If he was the real deal, he still may not have won, but he wouldn't have been dominated the way he was either. I feel like Bisping was a huge step up from the last cans Miller crushed in Japan/Strikeforce and dude got exposed. |

Also, he has yet to win a fight against somebody who isn't an upper midcard fighter. Everytime he faces one of the top guys, he gets waxed. The three biggest opponents he has had in his career are Henderson, Wandy, and Rashad. He lost all of those fights.

I'm sure it did not help Mayhem, but we have seen several fighters come off long layoffs and they did not gas out after Round 1.
I thought it was interesting though that even Bisping had his hands on his knees after Round 1 before he walked over to his corner. I really want to go back and see how many body shots Mayhem took. |

To be fair to Bisping, the Rashad fight could have gone either way, Wandy was close and getting your shit rocked by Hendo isn't really something to be ashamed of.
Outside of Anderson and Chael, most of the 185ers are upper midcard. I think a re-match with Wanderlei if they want a "name" opponent or a fight against Maia make the most sense right now for Bisping. |

I forgot which fight it was cause I was drunk, but there was one where a guy was getting horribly beaten and I thought he could have been killed, seriously and the ref was not stopping the fight. I was fucking offended to be honest. I couldn't believe they aired it. Total black eye to the sport.
