    Entertaining fight, I had this down as struve by what ever the hell he wanted but Morecraft was very game. Almost finished it in the 1st but just couldn't land that big shot. Dominated Struve in the 1st came out for the 2nd looking to do the same then got caught with a good combo, he looked out soon as he hit the mat and one more punch in my opinion would of been enough to stop it.

    Herb had other plans though at least 5 or 6 shots landed flush swinging Morecrafts head every where the poor guy wasn't even attempting to defend himself. Hopefully Morecraft comes back he was entertaining for those two rounds and showed some nice GnP.

    Here's the video one of the slowest stoppages I've seen in a while

    Yeah, I thought so too. I saw Herb just standing there and I was wondering what the **** he was doing. Morecraft was finished when he hit the floor really. Nice comeback from Struve though.

    funny fight, and what a position to end up in , sitting on your arm so your opponent can tee off on you, luckily the ref was there to do his job oh wait a minute ref didnt really do his job at all

    Herb is good but not astounding like White likes to make out. Morecraft got hit a few times too many. Great comeback. Herb also should not have told him 'surgery and you'll be fine'. It's a questionable call.

    Struve is average but I think he needs to build to 265.

    One of the most entertaining fights in UFC history. One guy gets absolutely destroyed in one round only to come back and score a miraculous devastating knockout in the next, and for him to land about 6-7 unanswered shots to this guys jaw. If this was a main event, people would have been leaving the arena very happy.

    I agree after the 2nd punch im thinking ok is he going to stop it ? Then 6 more shots come with this guy sleeping on the canvas.
