Good looking card!

Best part about it: It's free.

I've always felt like Jaime Varner had some of the best hands in MMA. I asked Bendo about it via Twitter, and he agreed. He was actually training with him at the time too.

WAR SHOGUN!

Tripping. King Mo has a horrible gas tank, has overrated stand up(dude thinks he's Floyd but he's not) and has even more overrated ground game. The guy does NOTHING once he gets his opponent to the ground. Who has he beat? Nobody.

King Mo killed Gegard Mousasi and beat up Lorenz Larkin (who is a bad man in my eyes) but Mo was juiced up. King Mo does have stamina problems but in his last few fights his ground and pound game has improved, least lay and pray. But that 205lb knockout punching power is the x-factor against anyone he fights. King Mo is cool in my book, but we will see how good he is without the PED's...

If cormier moved down to 205 he would be a big problem for anyone! hes been murdering the heavy weights with ease. Has good conditioning., surprising power and is getting all around better. I think he might make this move with him being close friends with velasques and saying he would never fight him. I would love for cormier to go at it with dos santos before the move tho.Cormier would be a huge threat to Jon jones, Jones is not unbeatable! I see flaws in him.

The problem with Cormier cutting to 205 is he had kidney failure and almost died the last time he tried to cut to around 205 for the Olympics in 2008, thats why he sat out of those Olympics. He's 33 years old with a life time of weight cutting and has already had kidney failure from a failed cut once, might not be a good idea for him health wise.

Honestly, he should just do a body re-composition instead of trying to squeeze out a bunch of water weight. It's pretty obvious he's got a lot of fat. He should be able to make 205, if he doesn't balloon up in between fights, like it seems he does.

Cormier said if Cain wins the title back he's moving down, so we'll see.

Tyrone Spong KO's Bones Jones early 2014

Moraga fucked up that dude with those elbows. That was a nasty KO.

 

[Shaniac]

What a knockout by Machida, i dont like him but he countered that perfectly

 

[$ileNt_eNe_ATL]

this was a great fight card all fights ended with a finish .. I'm very impressed with joe lauzon he's came a long way from the ultimate fighter....

i think machida had a better finish that shogun ... I'm curious to see who gets the title shot ..

 

[T-Rip]

Shogun had the tougher fight and that was a hell of a main event, way better then the last UFC ppv. I was pulling for Vera but I aint mad.

 

[STICK]

That card was great from the prelims through the undercard and then the main event fights.

 

[InfamousICON]

One of the best cards in a while, great for the UFC too with all the casual fans tuning into FOX and seeing nothing but great fights.

It should be Shogun vs. Machida for the title shot but of course they need to give someone the title shot right away

This I agree with. however it seems Shogun lost his gas and never found it. he always gasses now and IMO he has no shot at beating jones unless he takes him out quick. I think machida has the best chance. as long as he doesnt make any mistakes he can take the decision.
