    Let me just add this, Mo won the fight because he laid on top of his opponent most of the fight no matter how ineffective that is ring control. He couldnt land **** the entire fight while on top of his opponent.:zzz

    I will stick to boxing.

    This was the worst fight of the card. King Mo is a one dimensional fighter and it's embarrassing for strikeforce to have a guy like him hold a title.

    uuummm, wow really?? have you NOT seen king mo's fights before mousasi?? damn near all of them had ended by knockout via stand-up. i think you're just frustrated as you were probably one of many people that jumped aboard the mousasi hype train. glad to know you survived after it crashed and burned:deal

    I think Mo's stock definitely rose from this fight but both of the fighters come away from it with glaring holes in their game. Mousasi's takedowns defence is bad and something he needs to work on, as is his workrate and probably his stamina. He looked rather lazy for most of that fight with little urgency. As for Mo, he proved he is a very good wrestler but very little else and so he comes away looking rather one dimensional. His stamina needs work as well. Luckily both are young and have plenty of time to work on their shortcomings.

    Totally agree but stilll think Mo did little else beside lay on top of Mousasi. I like Japanese MMA rules SOOOO much better. In Japan MMA is more free form in America there is massive slant advantage for wrestlers. I should say in the judging mostly not as much the rules.

    Look at Mo's face one eye was close to being completely swollen shut, and the other one looked pretty bad too.

    No way that was an ass whooping! WTF. Mo spent 90 % of the time on top and not landing anything. Mo was extremely ineffective for having an opponent down for so long and never once had him close to being in any trouble.

    I got to watching this fight last night. Awful but the right man won. Well done Mo.

    I picked Mo to beat Mousassi the second the fight was signed. I would rather see Mo fight Henderson next than Fedor. Fedor might clean Mo's clock.

    Mo/Babalu would be nice, too.
