Frank Mir is still a douche. I thought he was the future of MMA when I first saw him in the UFC. Now I thin he sucks. Brock would hurt him again.

They stood up and danced for 2 1/2 rounds. Mir knocked his ass out with a knee to the forehead in the 3rd.

Crowd booed through the whole thing, lol.

Sherk/Dunham, Lytle/Serra we're the good fights on the main card. The rest fucking sucked. Hell I had more fun watching the damn prelims!

Cro Cop needs to retire and go back to Croatia where he is a saint.

I'd rather see Mir retire than Cro Cop. At least Mirko isn't a douchebag.

Cro Cop doesn't need to retire. The only reason the fight sucked is because they respected each other too much. It wasn't like they were tired and run down or anything. All in all the ppv blew though. Crowd booed through 75 percent of the card. I'd be pissed if I paid to go watch it.

Dolloway looked good.
Dunham/Sherk was a good fight.
Serra/Lytle was as well, but Serra is an idiot for not even trying to get it on the ground.

Mir/Cro Cop was boring as all get out until the last 3 seconds. I'm one of the few who actually like Mir for some reason (I typically hate the douchebags in the sport like Koscheck, but for some reason I like Mir).

So, who else was pissed that Sherk got the decision...that was a joke...even Dana White was freaking out!

I agree that the Sherk and Lytle fights were the only good ones in the PPV. Prelims were pretty good though.

I think the Sherk/Dunham fight was too close to call to be honest.

Sherk easily won the 1st. Dunham easily won the 3rd. The 2nd round was a toss up to be quite honest, and I like Dunham more than I like Sherk.

White was pissed because there are more dollar signs to be made with Dunham at this point than Sherk.

I agree that Sherk won the first round but he did NOTHING in the 2nd and 3rd rounds to win the fight...he got dominated by Dunham.

Reading Dana's tweets, I guarentee it wasn't the dollar signs that pissed him off...it was just a terrible call. He called it one of the worst judges decisions in UFC history!

The WEC card is looking nice, can't wait for the Varner v Cerrone rematch.
Plus the Korean Zombie is always fun to watch.

I agree with you in regards to the 3rd. The 2nd round was close, very close.
