    Huerta really needs to work on his footwork. If he had better balance he'd be such a better fighter.

    I gave Huerta the first round.
    Oh and, Maynard is STRONG as hell, damn, he was controlling Huerta like a little girl.
    If he can improve his standup it could be cool vs BJ, but like this, he gets KTFO.

    No the **** he wasn't. Huerta did better in that regard than Frankie Edgar for God's sake. I was very impressed with how well he fared in that aspect.

    It's a bit of both; Huerta is great and sitting his hips out to avoid a full takedown, Guida could never really complete a full takedown for long. On the other hand Gray was able to do it quite a few times, and actually hold a solid position afterwords, although it didn't come easy he always seemed to finish, no matter how long it took. That the skill part of wrestling that a lot of guys lack technique in.

    That Kimura was the most pressure I've seen on a shoulder outside of Sakus fights.

    I can't stand Maynard, he comes off as such a cocky little *****.
    Him and Kenny Florian could be interesting, although I hope they let BJ have some fun with him.

    What? Look at the end of the 2nd round and all the 3rd round, even if it was no clear takedown or working in guard, he was controlling him easily, Huerta was never able to make distance, never.. It was shocking the difference in strenght

    He look sloppy with his striking last night. It just didn't look like the old huerta. I guess his better off making movies now.
