    Why is Carvahlo's left hand facing outwards?

    Common in MT to hold both hands facing outward towards your opponent at distance. Although he does hold his hands at kinda a weird angle.

    Apart from the GSP/Condit and Kampmann/Hendricks what are the fights you guys think will be the best? My internet is too **** to stream so I'm just going to a pub to watch it with a schnitzel.

    Both fighters were too tentative. Carvallho might have taken it for the more solid shots - especially those hard leg kicks.

    Hominick/Garza and Stout/Makdessi should both be great.

    The way he holds his hands looks kinda girly

    Honestly - the whole card has some decent matchups. The Griggs/Diabate fight should be fun. Cote/Sakara should be a slobber-knocker as well.

    Fine exhibition of stand up there, reminded me of a prime Takada...

    That fight was a bit subdued. Could've gone either way, lets hope it livens up a bit.

    I don't know why I expected a ground war out of two BJJ blackbelts. I forgot that those fights always devolve into amateur hour kickboxing matches.

    He looks like one crazy mofo though. Calvahlo should sleep with one eye open tonight.
