    I still think Cruz is all wrong for Barão with that mobility....

    Watson was the man tonight!!!!

    I'm gutted for my man Ché but it's the fight game... You win some you lose some.

    I'm hoping they give him Papy or Alloway next.

    Needs to keep his hands up and chin down a bit more, but he is certainly very talented. Maybe should be more aggressive with his takedowns. The ground is his world, and he seemed a bit too comfortable trading bombs with Santiago. It worked out fine tonight, but against a guy with a bit more power, it could prove disastrous.

    Really seems to mimic Machida in his striking.

    That's assuming that he'll be able to perform like he did the last he was in the cage after two major knee surgeries and a two year layoff.

    :good

    I was impressed with his beard though. He got caught flush at the end of the fight, and was back to his default bored expression immediately. :conf

    :hat

    I would also throw Nelson/Santiago in there, just because Nelson is an interesting prospect.
