The first two televised bouts were close, could have gone either way. I was pulling for Nate Diaz. Jon Jones is a beast! Needs to work on his cardio, but he is young. He whooped Bonnar’s a$$.

I do not think Lyoto Machida can be beat: that is, there is no one who would even win 4 times against him if they fought 10 times… Hurts me to say that because I am a big Rashad Evans fan, but he would be hard pressed to come up with a game plan for that guy.

I consider myself a GSP & a BJ fan, it hurts to watch BJ take that beating.

machida v evans is going to rock.. both legit in their prime beasts… machida has fought some of the best in the world and doesn’t even get him, I think evens will test him, it will be interesting to see if rashad’s speed and explosiveness will be enough to break the distance and put some punishment on machida.. though I expect machida to be champion soon enough

likewise, gsp v alves is going to be a hell of a fight.. unlike v. baby quit penn ..
we will see how good gsp really is.. alves is a monster , he is the future at middleweight , but gsp is a true champ; it should be a fight

overall though 94 was a huge letdown.. the most exiting fight was machida kicking that ego maniac gansta wannabe tiago silva ass with skill and honor …
the rest of the card was boring with the exception of jon jones maybe.
affliction last week was way more exciting.. Fedor v Arlovski has real drama, Fedor is history, undefeated and Arlovski was his biggest test , in a long time, great ending on that fight and the rest of the card also had exciting fights and great finishes..no decisions.. compared to this ufc that was full of them and split
decisions at that.. hopefully the ufc will step it’s game up now that they have some competition.. paying $50 every two weeks in this economy I want some matchup that have a chance of either guy winning.. I’m sick of lesnar v couture, mark f-ing coleman v anyone, gsp v uriah faber etc… dana white and the ufc’s pr , marketing build these fights up as even but often one guy is expected to win by management.. they’d make money no matter what I wish they just tried to make more competitive fights and each show a blowout packed card instead of their current methodology of constantly building towards other cards, building up fighters with matched they are not in any real danger of losing.. what made fedor v arlovski so great was fedor could have lost, and was on points.. machida silva had an element of danger but the rest of the card was lame and not worth the money.. you better do better next time ufc

That fight was such BS.

Penn had no answer to GSPs strikes. GSP was double jabbing Penn, body face body face and still nothing it was great. GSP had no problem taking Penn down and passing his guard. As for the vaseline read my comment on the other board under BJs camp files complaint.

And the whole argument about BJ had moved up in weight, Its crap. Its not his first time fighting at 170 shit he had the belt in that weight class at one time. Bottom line the guy just isnt as good as GSP. And him and Florian will be a great match maybe even an upset for the Penn fans.

Penn talked so much crap on Primetime. Whats that crap he said about slapping Dana for checking up on him and his training. Someone needed to check up on him even more than they did. His dumb ass trains like shit. The show showed him jogging so slow that he could have walked faster.

I dont know why Penn even got a title shot at 170. The last man in common that him and GSP fought was Hughes and he killed Penn and then GSP killed Hughes. Makes no sense to me.

GSP is the man and he might fight Silva and probably win (he is more well rounded) but first he has to think about that animal Alves.

I agree with king mah mah, though. The real fight of the night was Machida – Silva. Machida – Evans would be great to watch. Close second best bout was Bonnar – Jones. Jones looks like an upcoming star! Only 22 years old with a bright future at light heavy. Every other televised match was a bit boring, unfortunately. Good chatting with some of you on the live chat last night.

Uhh, it was late, and I was writing from margaritaville… It should have read,

“go back to Hilo and smoke joor pocalolo (comma) mang…. joo piece a chit”…..

“mang” being the Cuban-American noun for the english word “man”….

As for “Death Match 2009″, like Arlovsky, someone should put BJ on suicide watch after being beaten by a bitch…… at least he was man enough not to “tap from strikes” ………he had his bra be the bitch instead…..

His bra shoulda put some vaseline on BJ’s back to help slide him onto the stretcher a little easier, no wait, actually, to help slide him back into the trashcan where he belongs, for the trip home.

Also I’m happy that miraculously, everyone got out of the arena safely after the rapid deflation of BJ’s head in such a small crowded space.

I can’t wait to see the cheering crowds at Hilo aiport….

I like how GSP has now explained to everyone the strategy he used to beat Penn.
You know,wear out BJ’s small shoulders to eliminate his boxing skills.
Now we all know.
Listen up Kenflo.

Know ive seen Domanence before but GSP was not only domanant he beat Penn to the point of Embaresment . BJ Penn looked like he was crying for his blankey between rounds 3-4. This was possably the greatest beating i have ever seen as for pound 4 pound best, there is absolutely no contest here anymore GSP just destroyed a CURRENT CHAMPION while silva is set to fight another guy that isnt in the top 10.

Im not sure why evans is unable to fight but after what Machida did last night I dont think Rashad will be the champ for much longer. Dont get me wrong im not saying Machida will ko Rashad but i dont think rashad will be able to hit lyoto.

Oh and now BJ is whining because GSP had vaseline on his back? I’m not 100% percent sure but did Penn even touch GSP back in the fight? All i saw was Penn in the fetal position getting pummeled. Go to hell Penn and take you butt brother Dana white with you.

Injury?

movie deals??

champion’s benefit??

Well that just shows your idiocy.

I assume you feel that none of these fighters are “legit”:

-Rich Franklin
-Sokoudjou
-Bj Penn
-Stephan Bonnar
-Tito Ortiz
-”Tiger” White
-Nakamura

Those are some of the guys on Machida’s record… to say he has fought no-names is downright dumb..

3 of those guys are already legends in the sport..

I can agree with you on Thiago, he hasn’t really had any crazy competition, but Machida has faced the best in the world.
