Sarah Kaufmann was killing Leslie Smith on the feet, maybe the best I have seen her striking look.

Ryan Jimmo normally a boring fighter, got a 1st rd KO :ehh:

K.J. Noons hasn't looked good lately, but that KO over Sam Stout was :ooh:. Not only the knockdown but the 2 follow up shots to seal the deal :wow:

Poierer/Akira had a really fun fight, Dustin is one of the most exciting fighters in the FW division. He needs to improve his striking defense if he wants to take it to the next level though.

Damn Kennedy wrestled better against Bisping than Sonnen. I'm impressed.

Ronda Rousey unloads on potential opponent Cris 'Cyborg' Justino for steroid usage

"I've said before, I don't care if she's injecting horse semen into her eyeballs, I'll fight her, but that's just my personal decision," Rousey said. "But I can't make a decision for the whole division. I can't say it's the right thing. This girl has been on steroids for so long and [has been] injecting herself for so long that she's not even a woman anymore. She's an 'it.' It's not good for the women's division. It's not good at all. If she comes in the UFC and I beat the [expletive] out of her and then I retire and become an action movie star, then the UFC is still going to be stuck with her. The division could die. She could ruin the whole sport. Even though it's a fight a lot of people want to see, even if I beat the living crap out of her, it won't be good for the sport because then she'd still be in the UFC."

i know...dude just feasts on guy's legs. i'd love to see him in the ufc. him vs. barboza would be sick, they both love chopping dude's down.

that beating he gave ben saunders...goddamn :damn:

Now that Lima's the champ, he's not going to be coming to the UFC for a while.

He would tower over Barboza, different weight classes breh Him vs Lawler, T. Alves, Lombard, Condit, etc :wow:

aw yeah, i'm tripping. i dunno why i was thinking barboza was at welterweight. i guess i got too hype about the style match-up.:ehh:

he'd be a nice addition to 170 in the ufc though regardless. he'd have problems against wrestlers but dude's stand-up could hang with anybody. now that i think about it he's actually like a 170 barboza but with more power in his hands.

you aint lying... also I was lil shook for my dawg pitbull but his power came through in the 2nd.

Crazy has this fight was basically a repeat of his last one, with him turning it on in the 2nd to score the finish. Not sure who wins between him and Marcin Held in the finals. Whoever wins will probably have to wait awhile though, Dave Jansen earned a title shot but has been injured forever. Will Brooks has a title shot as well.

Lima went thru Hawn a lot easier than I thought. Those leg kicks :damn: Smart move by the corner of Hawn to stop the fight.
