    Paul Harris would take home a leg and Anderson would sparkle him.

    He should be cut for being a goon. I have never seen a more annoying fight. You have a WORD CHAMPION GRAPPLER refusing to tie up and indeed scrambling up to his feet when a gassed wrestler takes him down. Just an absolutely woeful performance. Bisping would have killed him.

    Good call.

    I still can't believe how awful he looked in this fight. If he can't get any better than this (cardio + finding ways to take people down), he is done.

    I ****ing hate top-level wrestlers and BJJ guys who learn six month's worth of standup striking and all of a sudden they want to start knocking guys out on their feet like they're Anderson Silva. :-(

    I mean, I can sort of understand, because they train their standup so they're not absolute novices outside of their preferred disciplines. They practice all kinds of new moves in the gym, and they want to try them out in a fight and impress people with them. But still, they miss the point. Mother****er you're supposed to train standup so that you're not completely helpless if you can't get the fight to the ground where your lifetime of training makes you very dangerous. :-(

    So work with what you know and are good at. Don't try to make a statement and show how well-rounded you are by getting into a standup fight that looks like two drunks slinging fists in the parking lot of a strip club. :patsch
