Yeah it's not impossible to reconstruct everything, but she's probably gonna be taking a long time to get back into form.

[Gazz]

Dana said she was "attacked by a male fighter at her gym" which sounds very scary, or a very bad choice of words.

I honestly can't see how she'll be able to come back from that much damage.

Bad choice of words, though Dana is legit pissed about it.

She got injured during wrestling practice sparring against a guy.

MMAFighting's got the summary of both sides of the story, Dana as what he was told by Pena while she was hysterical apparently, and Rick Little, Pena's coach: http://www.mmafighting.com/2014/1/30/5362474/dana-white-juliana-pena-was-attacked-at-gym-led-to-devastating-knee

John Lineker failed to make weight for the fourth consecutive fight, beating the record of three held by John Lineker, but eventually got down to 126 after an extra couple of hours.

[Rich]

But he did make weight, no need to make a big thing of it, had he have not made it he should have been mega punished but he made the legal weight limit. He will be punishing himself at the minute though as Zuffa won't give him a title shot until they are happy he will make weight with no problems

[Benjamin]

Yeah, if anything I feel sorry for the guy. I know it's supposed to be unprofessional, but he really tried his damnedest the past two times, and this time he was 1 pound over 126. I remember during the Urushitani weigh-ins, he looked like he was at his entire extended family's funeral. And he made 125 that time. This time he looked like absolute shit as well, I hope he's able to recover fast enough in a day to fight Bagautinov, if not he might get mauled.

What's he gonna' do, go up to 135? He's too small.

He should stick to fetching coffee at the BBC.

[Chris2K]

Not that I'm disputing the decision, but isn't it a little bit of a conflict of interest when one of the judges of a fight (Ricardo Almeida) is a coach of one of the fighters (Nick Catone)?

I know that there's only a limited number of judges per commission but surely they can have one on standby to replace a judge with a working relationship with one of the fighters?

EDIT: Never mind, Rogan just confused me by saying Almeida was a judge, but he wasn't for that fight. Carry on.

[HC]

Martinez is embarassing. Trying to steal it with wall-and-stall.

[Chris2K]

6 fights, 6 decisions. Iaquinta/Lee was fun but the other two fights on FS1 haven't made staying awake very easy.

[HC]

Thank God Martinez didn't steal one via hugs.

[HC]

So does Lineker get cut now? Given his weight issues it could happen but man his hands are heavy. Hopefully he moves up to BW.

[EddieG]

Oh boy oh boy, Reem is back baby!

[HC]

I mean, he looked good and paced himself well but it was against Frank Mir........in 2014. Let's not roll out the red carpet just yet.

And Jesus, Eddie, go make your draft pick you bum!

[HC]

Faber losing was expected but no less depressing.

[Noah]

Faber losing was expected but no less depressing.

[gunnar hendershow]

Faber was going to lose anyway, but man that was a weak stoppage from Dean. Where does Barao rank in P4P? Behind Jones, ahead of Cain?

This show set the record for most fights that went to the judges apparently.

[Summers]

Fuck you Herb Dean. Pathetic.

[Summers]

The Trujillo ending was brilliant by the way.

[Liam]

Fuck you Herb Dean. Pathetic.

Having just watched it, Faber wasn't trying to defend himself intelligently (he had his hand on the side of his head, granted.....but just turtled and held on to Barao's leg). How many shots does a referee let a man take?
