That fight was a matter of timing and luck. Both guys were swinging for the fences, just a matter of time before one was going to get too rocked. Wandy looked in trouble a few times, and so did Stann. I am just loving that they covered the over 1.5 rounds, and Wandy won
Probably impossible to be classier than Stann.

Seriously. The guys is so classy that it makes people hate him

Yeah, he's a champ. Despite the recent tidal wave of UFC cuts and Stann's losses, I'm pretty sure he's safe.

Wandy getting a double bonus, FotN and KOotN, and Dana feeling generous and paying 2 KO bonuses, Hunt getting one too.

sounds like Hunt broke Struve's jaw. i really wanted to see Lavar Johnson-Hunt, but i guess Hunt needs to move up the ladder. Maybe Overeem?Wandy getting a double bonus, FotN and KOotN, and Dana feeling generous and paying 2 KO bonuses, Hunt getting one too.

I'm thinking Nelson or, dare I say it.....Carwin?Either way I think he is one win away from a title shot.#ArmyofDoomETA: To be honest, I still think Hunt was more deserving of a title shot than Frank Mir at the time against JDS.sounds like Hunt broke Struve's jaw. i really wanted to see Lavar Johnson-Hunt, but i guess Hunt needs to move up the ladder.

dude, Don Frye would be awesome but I doubt they'll ever let him near a Fox-related broadcast. some of his Shark Fights lines - "they're like a couple'a whores fighting over a loose dollar", etc. - would give the network a heart attack.would love Bas. Him or Don Frye, guy was awesome when they gave him a chance. Only a small sample, and there are better out there, but this is what i found for now:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7je8ZOk6e-4

Alright, it is time we start to talk about creating a universal language. I don't care if we pick some words from each language so nobody gets their panties in a bunch, but i think we are ready to put this into action. These press conferences are a pain in the ### with all the different languages going back and forth

Whatever universal language you chose, Anderson Silva still wouldn't speak it.Those of you with Netflix Instant Watch, be sure to check out the "Like Water" documentary on Silva. The Fitch one "Such Great Heights" is pretty decent too.

Just sets up the fade that much better. If Diego's next fight is at 170 he will likely be undervalued, at 155 likely overvalued.Bad decisions suck for everyone.

Someone want to try to justify Okami still being on the roster after Fitch was cut? They're pretty much the same fighter.

Okami is Japanese, Fitch is American.

Silva has been on the wrong end of those exchanges just about every time since he's been in the UFC. He was due I guess.That fight was a matter of timing and luck.

funny enough, but
. that and the WW division is stacked, not as many guys at MW on the radar

Fitch doesn't eat punches like Okami does. He is a textbook gatekeeper. He can showcase a striking prospect or send someone without wrestling and clinch ability off the radar.funny enough, but

Saw a few fans were outraged that Diego won (and Gomi Lost). Re-watched the fight again. I don't think Diego won. I don't think Gomi won. Would have called it a draw.Edit: And to think if Diego had a point deducted for low kicks, it would have been a majority draw.

I don't think it is possible to not be a Mark Hunt fan. Overeem is injured and can't fight JDS, and this is what Hunt said:
"If I get the call for the fight, I'm there, of course," Hunt told MMAFighting.com Wednesday night, "and the fans are crazy for it, so it's good. Sounds like a pretty good idea to me. I'm not injured. I'm always down for a battle. I was born down. You know this."

Listening to the conference call right now. Diaz = :trainwreck:. I don't think I've ever heard someone so dumb talk so much.

say what? come on man, that was awesome.Diaz: "yeah George maybe if I got some tight shorts and a haircut and had somebody butter me up halfway through and talk all that s*** in my ear, yeah maybe I'd be doing great too"'Cliff Clavin said:
"yeah you've done a lot, you worked on your backflip and got it down"
"nobody wants to see five minutes of holding - I think they ought to deduct a point for that or running away - you should have to punch me out to win. Someday people will realize this stuff and say hey this guy's been here saying this all along"
"I mean I think I ought to be viewed as a superhero man, a superhero coming to cut through all the bull****"
GSP: "I can't understand half of the words you're saying - my English is better than yours"
"listen you uneducated fool, something you would have learned if you had ever been a success"
plus Nick's rant about not being pampered and story about the soccer mom cussing him out had me rolling

How would such a draft work?Is there any interest in getting an MMA draft going?

If be in not sure how it would work but maybe like the wwe draft. Draft to either make the best card, or draft to Create the best org, etc. maybe salary cap if you are starting a new org and what you would get (I.e. don't invest a ton of your money in getting fedor)How would such a draft work?Is there any interest in getting an MMA draft going?

Pretty much. Would we be able to get around 10 drafters for this thing?

Well geez EY, now you got me excited. I say we start it up soon, and we can get as many people want to come in. Now you have me thinking about this for the last few hours designing my org./card/etc.And funny episode of Inside MMA tonight. They brought on some d-bag from some goofy news source in Milwaukee who hates MMA and Women's MMA.

Man I hope so. I hope a lot of fighters got inspired by brain Stan's performance and JDS chooses to stand with hunt for most of the fight. He can take it down if he has to, but keeping it standing will be what everyone wants to see (unless hunt is able to look as good one the ground as he did at times with struve). If these cards can avoid the injury bug we will be set up with some great cards or the next few months
