I called the draw watching the fight. I definitely agree with that decision. It sucks to watch two guys go all out like that for 5 rounds and not have a winner, but that was the right decision.

GSP/Shields is a go at UFC 129.

Also for that card is Couture vs Machida!

I didn't get to see the UFC last night looking to see the fights online sometime this week. I don't like Randy matched up with Machida! If he doesn't secure a takedown early and keep it on the ground he will get KO'd.

Machida/Couture is interesting.

What are you referring to Red Saul?

Dong Hyun Kim says with his W at 125 he is ready for GSP. lol slow down man.

I am thinking Gibby is referring to the auto rematch with Maynard and Edgar before Edgar fighting Pettis.

Machida hasn't looked as good for a while. If Randy pushes the pace I think he can do it.

It's only one count and it was for 69k...the max is 20 years, no way in hell he serves 20 years, i bet he'll pay a fine and won't serve a day

raw did you not read the part where i said he should get two years probation or the article where it said two years probation was agreed upon all that has to happen is the judge goes along with it since sonnen will testify against the other and 99.9% of the time the judge will do what is recommended. Had he not agreed to testify he would have got jail time for sure
