    Mousasi was outstanding, again, he impresses me in every fight, he just keeps on getting better and better.

    Babalu's no joke and Mousasi just walked through him with ease.

    I really expected this fight to be alot more competitive, just a brilliant performance.

    I fully agree and i think mousasi is a good fight for anyone at 185/205.

    Explosive and devastating. With Fedor and Mousasi, maybe Strikeforce could create a rivalry to UFC. Don't they also have Rogers, Arlovski and one or two others. Interesting. Even if guys like Arlovski aren't champ material, they create depth.

    I also said the same a whiile back, everytime you see him he gets better. After the super hulk tourny the only other realistic fight I can think of is vs Lil Nog.

    Mousasi really helps Strikeforce become something. His win was impressive but he also has good looking wins over Manhoef and Hunt.

    Absolutely, even if he doesn't prove to be something great, right now he has mystique of potential greatness about him. Clearly became a great asset to Strikeforce.

    They should really hype him for the simple reason that they could make people believe that they have the best heavyweight and light heavyweight in the world. They should definitely try and get Cung Le back in the mix because then they could at least claim they have the best middleweight in the world too.

    Even if people don't think Mousasi and Le are the best, they'd certainly think they are very good and the number 1s to Silva and Machida.

    Would the right moves I think Strikeforce could pose a serious threat to the UFC. It won't be easy though.

    Its a shame but hopefully in the meantime Dream and Strikeforce can provide quality matchups. The Superhulk tournament is there in October im 99.9 percent sure he defeats Sokoudjou and Choi-Minowa winner but what after that ? Lil Nog would be a great fight since hes got a top level ground game and strong boxing skills he may match up well. Plus hes highly ranked coming off 5 straight wins and of course past wins over Matyushenko,Overeem and Henderson. Thats the only real quality opponet out there for him at 205 so hopefully it gets done.

    As good as Mousasi is on the ground, he was getting outclassed by Jacare up until that brutal up kick. I really want to see that rematch.

    All the same, I'd favor Jacare in a rematch.

    Please, Jacare is not on a level with Mousasi in MMA....

    Mousasi wins at least 9/10.
