what was up with it?

Had a nice bet on Paul Buentello to beat Stefan Sturve tonight. 11/10 is cracking odds for a vetran against Sturve who I've never really been impressed by.

and cheik kongo, paul kelly, terry etim to name a few others who have had bouts in the ufc

spoilers from last night


=#FFFFFFkongo = SUPER PWNED!

I see the good old judges struck again on Saturday.

How did anyone have Sturve v Buentello ending in a draw?

I'm guessing the premise was that the first round was a 10-8 and Buentello won the last two but they must have watched a different fight to me.

Mariusz Pudzianowski won by TKO 43 seconds into the first round...

In the most cringeworthy MMA fight i think i have ever seen. He looked like he was kicking for touch not low kicking

No two ways about that.

Rumoured to be fighting Fedor in April 2010.......Good night god bless!

erm, i actually found that a bit uncomfortable to watch, certainly the way his head is bouncing up off the mat with the eyes wide open.

Just seen this myself.

Anyone get the feeling that this is going to be built up like mad before being a naff fight?

Not whatsoever! If Rashad stands infront of Rampage he's getting knocked out! If Rashad trys to wrestle he has a chance. Genuine hatred, Rampage owes Dana a big favour in coming back. Rampage isn't training in Wolfslair for this fight by all acoounts, whispers say he's training at ATT (read into that what you will...)

Haven't watched any MMA for a good few months now unfortunately. Heard a friend mention something about UFC been on the other night, think it was Evans but wasn't really paying attention. Can someone give me the lowdown of whats gone on lately...Who's fought who who. Who's won. Who's been talking crap about x fighter and who's lined up to fight in the up and coming months.

TIA.

Rashad was meant to fight Rampage, who decided to take some time off to make the new A Team film, which lead to Evans facing the possibly over matched Thiago Silva.

Brock Lesnar is currently in a bad way in hospital somewhere so Shane Carwin and Frank Mir are set to fight the interim Heavyweight Championship.

Also coming up, Dan Hardy and Michael Bisping will show just how poor UK MMA is when they're embarrassed by GSP and Wanderlei Silva respectively.

Bisping was awful! Is there a softer puncher around?

Hardy isnt actually a bad fighter but yeah, he will get wtfowned by GSP but GSP is the best pound for pound fighter around

GOOOOOO HARDY !!!

Do it for England !!

And do it for me @ 11/2 !!

Unlucky Dan you was just out classed by a very very good wrestler, his takedowns were simply undefendable tonight however one thing cannot be taken away from Dan hes one tough cookie JSP nearly ripped his arm of twice you did us Brits proud certainly better than Bisping anyway. Hopefully JSP moves up if he does I have no doubt Dan will become the first British UFC champion.

Hardy is my favourite MMA'er but GSP is quite simply, the best pound for pounder there is around today (even better than Fedor for me) and to go the distance shows how good Hardy is. However, GPS#s tactics were tre boring. I was far more impressed with Hardy than GSP. GSP to step up to 185 I reckon and then Hardy has a great chance of being champion at 170

Will be good to see how much Terry Etim has come on, when he takes on rafael dos anjos at ufc 112.

GSP was unstoppable. Hardy didn't even trouble him in the tiniest bit. If GSP goes up a weight then who knows for Dan Hardy.

Did BJ Penn and his coaching staff all lump on Frankie Edgar to win?

don't tell me he ing beat him?

frankie ing edgar?


i was musing whether to put a cheeky tenner on him just for fun whilst putting me national bets on yesterday. balls.

Yeah, he beat him. All because he just ducked and weaved for 25 mins. BJ Penn landed far more clean shots, but its all about octagon control these days and Edgar was the agressor throughout. The thing is though, that was not the BJ Penn we know. He looked tame, no agression at all. Like he wanted to lose but Edgar could just stand there for 3 hours punching BJ Penn in the face and he wouldnt knock him out. BJ Penn made no takedown attempts at all while Edgar made plenty, even though Penn Blocked them all.

Etim lost as well. Same problem as Bisping. No punch power at all and when on top of his opponent on the floor, did nothing except rest his head on his chest. Loving punch the guy for ffs.

Lost all my respect for Anderson Silva last night too. Mocked Maia throughout the fight. Everytime Maia landed a punch, Silva pretended to be hurt even though he wasnt. Fair enough, put a show on for the fans but dont mock your opponent, who, whilst bloodied, had the heart of a lion and kept on comming back. I Hope a true legend in GSP tears him a new one, when Anderson drops down in weight to face him.

Silva was a joke the other night. Hopefully he'll never do that again.

Seems like Dana White agrees. Silva will never headline another UFC event he has said. Interesting to hear that Dana White left ringside during the 4th round and just gave the belt to Silva's manager as he didnt want to put it around Silva's waist after the fight.
