Its weird how all these catz zuffa discarded are floundering in there 1st fights elsewhere, totally devaluing there stock.Its that sort of unpredictability that kills MMA from making that jump

Mazzagatti is getting a little too much unnecessary criticism here. Fitch was out [at most] for 1 second and then Burkman eased up and let go. In that short of a time period, I doubt any ref would've had enough time to stop the fight. However, Mazz should've been closer to the action and right on top of Fitch making sure he was okay.

If Aldo's cardio/weight cut isn't right....KZ can win this fight. But I expect the 1st 2 rounds to be SUPER dangerous for KZ. If he can get through that, he can pressure Aldo midway.


And I never wanted to see Aldo fight Pettis right now anyway. I need to see Henderson and Pettis rematch. Wouldn't mind Grant getting "injured" and Joe and Dana make the rematch we all need. :datazz:

I guess we know that Fitch can be choked out now :troll:

Really impressive performance by Burkman in what has to be a candidate for upset of the year, the way he walked off too after seeing Fitch go limp :ehh:

nah hes usually like that with antagonists that have delusions of grandeur.He was definitely :russ: when king Mo got his but I think Fitch is just an afterthought at this point, hes also kept it classy despite bein cut by them too

Fitch hasn't been classy, him n Dana been goin back n forth, throwing shots at each other. Mentioning money issues, and calling UFC a hostile work environment. They made you a millionaire, whether your upset cuz you think you shouldve made more or less, just be happy you made more than 95% of your MMA peers. And if you really thought UFC was so hostile, and didnt like having to fight and get your brains bashed in to make that money, then don't do it. Open your own gym and coach, a lot of these coaches are living nicely off that. But dont bytch at the spoon that fed you, then go out for ur 1st fight after UFC and lame it up in under a min.

Didn't see that one coming.
But yeah i doubt Fitch made a million in the UFC. He was talking about needing money not too long ago.

I think i'm going with Rashad. Anyone picking Hendo?

Remember it's only 3 rounds.
