saw it last night, jesus what a ing balloon, it was ridiculous the gulf in ability between him and Maia so why not go for a super kill finish or something.

On the other hand, i know what i said before but big props to Edgar, he got it spot on, and gave the type of performance you would have hope joe stevenson would have put in 2 years ago. I bet Diego sanchez watched that and felt really ing shown up.

I wouldn't like to be Renzo Gracie's left leg this week.

Paul Daley, how to kiss your UFC career goodbye in one brainfart, though to be honest, i probably can't blame him.

End of Kimbo Slice in the UFC too. A dangerous stand-up brawler, a fit Tank Abbot if you will, but badly exposed in MMA.

Kimbo would have been better suited going to pro wrestling. He could have made a bucket load playing off the reputation he earned from his youtube street fighting.

Fair play to him for having a go at it though.

Anyway, the Machido era never really got started. Is it the start of the Shogun era?!

Looking forward to Evans vs Jackson.

All you have to do with kimbo is kick his legs, for some reason he seems to be easy at taking off his feet

Well he won't be used to them getting hit. Most of the other guys have done some form of martial arts since they where kids so the bones are solid and nerves have died.

Good to see hardy taking a six month sabbatical to work with the best wrestling coaches in the world.

If he can sort his takedown defence out he will be hard to beat!! Also Heard Hardy will be headlining the next uk event at the 02 in London in october..Be interesting to see who they match him up with after GSP..

Also Bisping v Wanderlei rematch talked about on the same card...Been to the last two events in england and will make the trip again if this one happens!!

Complete waste of a talent if you ask me.. think hel probabaly end up back in strikeforce now..Koscheck got in his head big time..Shame he couldnt back his mouth up and knock that pr!ck out!

So Fedor is human afterall!

Carlos Condit v Dan Hardy is signed for UFC 120 in London.

Ok great fight, don't get me wrong it should be a classic, but I hope to god that isn't the main event. UK fans getting fleeced again!

Iv heard that that wont be the main event but looking forward to that fight,they should match up well..

The main event will probabaly be Bisping v Wanderlei rematch if wandys back from injury.

Havent seen the fight as strikeforce has been cancelled on Bravo!! (so iv been told anyway)


Biggest shock in mma? or has Fedor not fought good caliber fighters in recent times? I dont think he would last 5mins against Lesnar.

just search google news, its prettymuch near the top on one of the news sites, its only about a minute or so long. He had to tap otherwise his elbow was fooked

Lesnar: Best Heavyweight in the world?

Protected more like. I wonder if it'd have took them so long to stop the fight had Lesnar been bashing Carwin's face in?

It should have been stopped.

I think the end result proved it shouldn't have been stopped.

Although Carwin landed a few whilst on top for the most part Lesnar covered up well and took the punches.

For me the ref was vindicated by the fact that Lesnar was ok to continue and even went on to win the fight.

I'd agree with that.

nah, should have been stopped in the first round, from the first big uppercut he took to the chin lesnar was cowering and then just covered up on the ground taking shot after shot.

It had happened in a fight earlier that night and rogan and goldberg were demanding the ref stop it since he was just covering his head, exact same situation, not a peep out of them.


have to say as well, proper disapointed for akiyama, i was really looking forward to that and he blew himself out bizarrely in the first round. i don't like leben at all but some of the shots that he took were bombs and he just kept walking.

i was screaming at the television right near the end when akiyama was throwing his knackered punches from lebens guard, he'd throw a couple and then suck in for air leaving his arm out over leben's stomach, it was crying out for a sangaku.

UFC 120 in London taking shape;

Michael Bisping v Vitor Belfort (strong rumours of this, I for once can't wait to see him get face punched in by Belfort)
Carlos Condit v Dan Hardy
John Hathaway v Dong Heon Kym
Spencer Fisher v Kurt Warburton
Cheik Kongo v Travis Browne

Some pretty decent fights there.

If it wasnt Dana Whites golden boy, it would have been stopped. Still not convinced one bit by Lesnar and Fedor would defo tear him a new one.

Pretty sure the 3 uk MMA'ers who have just been signed by the UFC will fight at 120, including a lad from St Helens

How can you not be convinced with him???

Herring,Couture,Mir,Carwin all top level opponents that hes beaten.Dont get me wrong im not his biggest fan and hes not a complete fighter but hes fighting the best and winning!

I believe the ref was right to let it go on.He was covering up and moving all the time..Carwin gassed himself out going hell for leather and had nothing left for the 2nd round..he shouldnt have put all his eggs in one basket and he would probabaly have won.

Was good to see someone kick the out of him briefly though!

Yeah looking a good card..think i will be going down to London for this one..Also rumours of Rampage lil Nog which would make sense with him training over here but sounds to good to be true for me!

If he beats Velazquez and Dos Santos too, there can't be any doubt - he would be a hall of famer.

Even if he doesn't beat those guys by the time he retires he most defiantly, imo, will be a hall of famer.

The guys a freak of an athlete and although he can come off as a bit of a goon his dedication to his training and learning the sport is 2nd to none. If he’s already beating the guys like Herring, Couture, Mir & Carwin who is gonna stop him if he continues to improve? It’s gonna have to be a freak of a person to outmatch Lesnar.
