    Fight promoted by Mayweather & Broner who dya think gets the nod ?? Gramados was right on the mark he got screwed. Ref totally ignored Broners blatant holding
    Plus Paulie picked up the blatant combination of elbow & headbutt that damaged Granados nose. Spoiled a good fight

    Same with me and Sonnen/Ortiz, I've like Sonnen for quite a while, for obvious reasons:lol: and I've never liked Ortiz.

    I picked Fedor, not sure what UTF was thinking going with Mitrione actually.

    Yeah IDK man... Did you see how poor he looked against Maldonado? Nearly got KO'd in the 1st. in the US that would have certainly been stopped.

    I know what I'm thinking when it comes to Fedor trust me... :lol: He's reverted to a full on brawler who very seldom utilizes he excellent grappling. He was nearly KO'd by Maldonado a blown up MW-LHW who doesn't have much power and was never a top fighter. Fedor in his prime would have mopped the floor with that guy, instead he was very lucky not to get stopped in the 1st. Mitrione for how mediocre he is hits considerably harder and wouldn't let him off the hook if he had him hurt as badly as Maldonado did. As much as it pains me to say it.... Fedor was a betting underdog for a reason.

    I'm sure you know more than I, that being said, he's one of the few guys I actually watch in MMA as well, and I'm a fan, just because someone gets rocked by a bummish fighter, that doesn't mean he gets KO'd by a harder hitting bummish, you should know better than that, take Jack and Berchelt recently for example. Granted Fedor is much older and probably far more susceptible to a KO, its possible... but like with Roy last night, I never gave Gunn the slightest chance against him, and I picked Enzo to stop Roy.

    Yeah but MMA isn't boxing. Mitrione was a fringe contenderish guy in the UFC. For all of his flaws he's still very dangerous for a shot great like Fedor. To prove a point.... Mitrione more than held his own against both sides of tomorrows main event.

    I woke up and watched 6 rounds of Broner-Granados and I couldn't be bothered when I saw Al Bernstein's scorecard.
    Granados to me was clearly ahead going into the seventh and I realised Showtime commentary were going to untold lengths in their support of Broner and broadcasting his shots even though Granados had landed the better/more frequent punches in any given highlighted exchange.

    I don't care to watch the last 4 rounds, but if Granados won any of those rounds, he's definitely won the fight. Broner is a grade 1 twat.

    The Demographics unsurprisingly all seem to score for Broner.

    Concratulations to Peterson, derserved the win, good performance considering he's been inactive for over a year. As for the two Adrian's, I scored it a draw personally, but Broner exposed as the overrated fighter he is once again.

    So how come Mayweather screws his own fighter in Jack?
