My bad I've been slipping lately. All 4 fights on the main card were outstanding. I really enjoyed the ass whooping that Bader got. I'm still not sure that I would want to see Machida fight Jon Jones again after he got choked out in the 2nd round but I guess he is going to be next after Hendo gets beat down. Can Shogun Rua please please please do some cardio? He's got a strong chin but man does he have ZERO cardio.

Next week's PPV is going to be great, I really wish I was going to be around to watch it.

Tuned in during the Shogun fight. My buddy who is a big mma fan said there was no doubt shogun would win and that it went very predictably. Idk.

He also says Jon jones is the next Anderson Silva and has GOAT potential. I don't know anything about this stuff but please tell me if it is retarded so I can bust his balls.

Jon James is way overrated.

Now Jon Jones is a helluva fighter and very well maybe the next Silva. Dude is crazy good.

For not being an MMA fan you really did pick a good fight card to watch. It's touch and go sometimes like this with MMA. This was one of the better fight cards top to bottom.

This was one of the better events of the year.

Machida did look impressive. I have a feeling he can figure out Jones.

Shogun was typical Shogun. Zero cardio and relies on his ridiculous chin to wear out his opponents. I picked him by ko. Vera fought a hell of a fight though. Its just that Rua is a pit bull who can take pretty much any punishment and still survive. Brandon landed some hard ko shots but Shogun walked through them. I think Machida/Vera would have been a better matchup

Lauzon/Varner was non stop back and forth. Well deserved fotn

Swick looked better than i thought he would with the long layoff. But him living in Phuket for so long his muay thai should have been a lot better

He has the best shot of doing it, but I don't think anyone is figuring out Jones anytime soon.
