I'm becoming a Cerrone fan:

- Exciting fighter with lethal kicks
- Good BJJ
- Very active, averaging 4 fights a year since joining the UFC.
- Willing to fight anyone/anytime.
- Always comes to fight and shows no fear.

I can't see how anyone can dislike him as a fighter.

Missed this event and it seems non of the usual sites have it up :why: help would be appreciated


Ps it was kind of neat in theory but all parties need to deaden that 4 horsewomen nonsense.Unless they are strictly burying the pre mongo mcmicheal years. Its not good for ronda's rep to tag her with such a group, its like aligning austin with the job squad

That was a really great FN card with a ton of action, body shots are some of my favorite things to see in fights and this night delivered on that front.

Cowboy looked great again, those front kicks and knees he was landing to set up the killer shot :whew:. I want to see him fight Khabib next too, it should be the main event of a fight night kick because I need to see them go 5 rds. Khabib has been so good at pressuring his opponents and sticking to them landing suplexes and controlling them on the ground. I'm sure he could pull that off against Cowboy in the early rds, but Cowboy is the type of fighter that gets better as the fight goes on. He is such a dangerous striker that it wouldn't shock me if he caught Khabib slipping in the later rds and his BJJ is underrated. Been a fan since I saw him fight Razor Rob in the WEC.

I know Nate Diaz was at home wondering when UFC would stop paying him that "funny money" because he has beaten both guys in the main event :sas2:

Barboza might have a suspect chin, but his kicks are ridiculous. Spinning wheel kicks, leg kicks, body kicks, the messed up thing about it was the kick that landed looked like it just graved the body of Dunham :bryan:. If Cruishank wins his next fight, would love to see those 2 square off :ohlawd:.

Good to see Jon Lendiker (sp) make weight for a change and his cardio looked good. :leon: He hits hard as hell for a flyweight, those rib roasters he was throwing were great, and he even started working the jab. His opponent had a hell of a chin.

Leslie Smith really does fight like a Diaz brother. Constantly coming forward, mixing up strikes nicely. Sarah Kaufman is a technical striker and was able to make her pay, but Duke couldn't deal with the pressure and once she hurt her to the body she unleashed a Killer Instinct combo against her on the cage :ooh:

Props to Aljamaine Jackson, you can tell he is a natural athlete. I wish he would set up those crazy kicks he was throwing, out here throwing axe and crescent kicks from far away :heh:. Still I respect the fact he didn't just coast to victory with his wrestling and actually punished Wolverine with GnP to score the finish late.

Win or lose, I would still like to see Cruikshank/Barboza :blessed:
