Mancuerda Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Barao vs. McDonald was a great fight. Both those guys are world-class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnar hendershow Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 That show set the record for most decisions on a card I'm told. Whenever a card is hyped as having guys who finish fights definitively I know what to expect at this point. (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonM Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 That show set the record for most decisions on a card I'm told. Whenever a card is hyped as having guys who finish fights definitively I know what to expect at this point. (N) Yeah I was a bit dissapointed with the way the card ended up. Having watched all prelims and the whole card I just went ''meh'' at all the decision victories. That being said, Swanson Vs. Poirier and Gunny Vs. Santiago where great fights regardless of them going the distance. But I would have expected a bit more fire from the prelim guys, you would expect the small fry to be more aggressive with KO's and Sub's being a good way to get on the map. Now time to prepare for UFC 157, after all the hype they really need to deliver with the main event. But I am especially watching to see Lyoto and Hendo take each other's heads off.

Benjamin Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Rory's injured and out of the Condit fight. Hendricks is fighting him instead. Apparently Marquadt and Woodley both want to fight Ellenberger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I saw that a while ago and was just stunned. This sucks, I love Fitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cymbols Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Fitch is the only real shock on that list. Maybe Volkmann too but then he was in a stacked division and his comments made him a PR liability I guess. Also a little bit harsh on Jorge Santiago, I mean every time he gets to the UFC he gets thrown up against big names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I also thought it was harsh to let go of The Janitor, who could be used as a yardstick to up-and-coming stars. I mean, his only losses since he came back were to Bader, Gustafsson and Bones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Fitch isn't boring, his last two fights were excellent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Opens a lot if interesting fighters going to other promotions and could be good for mma as a whole. Bad news for the fighters though, could be some potential money fighters for Bellator though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnar hendershow Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 It's not a huge loss for any, though Fitch does come as a surprise. The ever revolving door of mid-level fighters is something that's inherent to the sport though, looking forward to the next batch of guys to see who can climb up the ladder.

Asuka's Gonna Kill You Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Holy shit, that Bermudez/Grice fight was crazy. How the hell did Grice survive that third round? Go and watch this one if you haven't seen it, absolute class. Loved the main event. Carmouche put up enough of a fight and even had Ronda in danger at one stage. Eventually Ronda comes back and does what she does best though, adds another arm to her collection. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
