No, Mansfield. Went to Madison. Pretty sure he trains in Bellefontaine.

I just watched it on Youtube. I'm not sure which promotion he is fighting for but I know they wanted 40 bones for the pay per view. No thanks

He looked really nervous on the feet, wasn't moving his head and was getting tagged with shots.

You guys watching 153 tomorrow night? Some really great fights top to bottom imo. Eddie Alvarez fights tonight on Bellator as well against Patricky Freire in what could be his last fight in Bellator.

Main card is littered with great fights and stylistic match ups.

Anderson by tko, I think the fight will be more exciting and interesting than the general consensus.
Glover Texeira by sub in what should be a damn good fight.
Big Nog by submission.
I like Erick Silva to stop Fitch, Fitch is coming off a long lay off and hasn't won a fight since 2010. Erick Silva is being hyped as a WW Anderson Silva, Fitch is a perfect test to see if he's ready or not.
I'm curious to see if Phil Davis has made any significant improvements in his stand up, I still like him to win by sub.
I don't know who will win the Rick Story and Damian Maia fight. Tough fight to call.

Anderson by tko, but he may not do it too early purely for the showmanship aspect.
Glover by submission.
Big Nog by decision.
Erick Silva by TKO.
Phil Davis by decision.
Damian Mia by submission.

Won't be able to watch tonight more than likely. However back to the SF discussion..I see they announced a return for early next year however I don't think SF survives then past 2013. Hvy's are gonna be done there...they need to scrap 155 and get Melendez in the UFC. Sorry Rockhold isn't gonna sell tickets. Rousey will but that is it!

I agree with fab, saw a stat that Strikeforce put on 19 events in 2011, only 6 in 2012. It needs to be disbanded, it's not fair to the fighters under contract who want to fight and stay active to make money. Wasting prime years of their career.

Fucking amazing. Fabio Maldanado might be the toughest guy on the planet, I have never seen anyone take that amount of punishment and still fight back. Maia looked incredible at 170. Phil Davis looked the same in the stand up but still has great athleticism, wrestling and top game/subs. Fitch impressed the hell out of me and I'm not a big Fitch guy. Erick Silva is a big time talent and Fitch weathered him and put a beating on him in the third round. Texeira is a monster, no wonder no one wants to fight that guy, he is easily a top 10 LHW. A fight with Rampage would be incredible. Big Nog looked sloppy to me but that was still a huge win for him. Dave Herman seems to not take his career seriously, which is a shame because he is talented. Anderson is amazing, that knee was brutal. Props to Bonnar, he went out there and was taking it to him and was winning the round.
