I’m looking foward to seeing Melvin Gulliard in the Octagon again.
BTW Tyson Griffin ain’t a boring fighter.
he just lacks finish.

Wasn’t Dos Anjos in a critical MVA last month in Brazil? I thought he was going to be out for most of 2009.

Griffin isn’t boring, I don’t love him but he’s respectable. I thought Guida got a little ripped off in their fight but it wasn’t the worse decision I’ve seen. He’s got a great KO of Faber from earlier in his career. This fight is the most appealing on the card and should be a great fight, very hard to call this one but I’ll go with Griffin via third round GnP.

I concur, going to decision doesnt mean the fight it boring.

I’ve been on the edge of my seat for fights many fights that went to decision. GSP vs Fitch is a perfect example. I’ve rewatched that fight again, it was viciously awesome.

Not to say there is anything against knockouts, submissions, etc.

Tyson Griffin vs. Clay Guida, Thiago Tavares, Frankie Edgar, and Sean Sherk all went to a decision and all were great fights.
I can’t understand why anyone would think Tyson Griffin is a boring fighter.

Typical responses here. One guy feels the need to comment on every story. The other begins the fighter bashing.

it’ll be a decision like his past six fights….the guy he stopped in the the only fight in his past 7th has a 6-4 record. Booooring fighter.

Thats gonna be a hell of a card, alot of MMA that week, with WEC event, this and TUF season all in the same week or something. But shouldnt Tyson fight Stephens who beat dos anjos and have dos anjos fight Efrain? That would probably be better. But a great card, this fight, Junie vs Cole, Efrain vs Stephens, Bader and Ronnys debut.
