    If Mo sucks, Mousasi is absolute garbage. Even though Mo was gassed, he landed meaningful punches on the ground and passed Mousasi's guard a few times. The stand up was pretty even. Both of them looked like ****, but I don't how you can make a case for Mousasi winning.

    They both looked like trash. Based on that fight, it's comfortable to say that neither would crack the Top 10 in the UFC's Light Heavyweight Division.

    Dominant showing by Melendez. Aoki had no answer for his striking.

    Aoki has always been overrated. He has no standup whatsoever and worst yet, he has the worst takedowns of any BJJ guys.

    I think Hendo is the favorite according to the bookies...but don't quote me on that.

    And I want to punch Frank Shamrock in the face. "And the Americans..." SHUT THE **** UP!

    Hendo is the favorite even though shields is the champ. The night is looking like the night for the underdog.

    Very true it's tough to win a fight if you can't throw a punch and can't take a guy down. He should stay in Dream...as should Gomi and let them be God's there.

    WOW! I hope someone punches Frank right in the ****ing mouth and breaks his jaw. That way we never have to hear his ******ed ass speak again.
