No shit, was looking forward to big things from him. Great night of action though, a lot of great guys didn't even get into the house.

Great fights on TUF 14 so far.

The season preview that they showed was insane.

They've been saying that for the past couple of seasons now, and they past couple of seasons have all stunk (IMO); especially last season.

That brought the lulz...especially since it came after Miller's pre-match comments of "I don't know who he is, but he knows who I am" and so on. It's always funny when someone comes into it thinking they're a sure thing and then gets subbed because they can't handle three rounds.

So apparently Rampage never lets his mom attend the fights. He said she is bad luck and he would lose if she was there. Haha

I'm hoping for a vintage Rampage performance. I would love to see him put jones to sleep.

This season of TUF could be great b/c these two weight classes have never been on the show. That means theres alot of undiscovered talent out there

the lighter weight classes usually have fast paced exciting fights. Add that to Mayhem and I'm sold on the show. Been waiting to see Mayhem in the UFC for a long time.

Probably missing this one now. Parents are coming in for the weekend...my mom doesn't like fights.

I am still pulling for Bones...TKO. I will go with Koscheck also.

FIFY.


And as for the Jones/Rampage fight. Ill take Jones by KO. Rampage has a punchers chance, but I think Jones is too long, unorthodox and skilled of a striker for Rampage to really win the fight on anything but a overhand right

He beat Machida and a lot of analysts were saying machida could beat jones. Rampage has been around awhile and looks like a man on a mission, i think he tags jones at least once. Jones hasnt really been rocked, so if rampage can get a good shot on him who knows what could happen

Oh I agree that Rampage has a shot, Hes one of my favorite fighters. Just would not feel comfortable betting on him. Depends on which Rampage comes out. If its the one who Beat Machida he's fine, if its the one who got leg kicked to death by Forrest Griffins monkey lookin ass...then hes screwed lol

I would probably never bet on an MMA fight. I also hate when analysts say so and so would beat so an so. It's anybody's fight to win. Anderson Silva or GSP are probably the only two fighters I would feel comfortable betting on.

Jon Jones is amazing but Rampage as a 6 to 1 underdog is a joke, give the dude some credit.

The physical evidence of Jones just destroying everyone is tough to ignore. That and the fact that all Rampage does is try to box. I think Jones is more of a betting favorite in this fight than Silva was vs Okami. For all the people on here, Sherdog, etc. I see picking rampage I hope they are putting their money where their mouth is because there is tons of money to be made.

For whoever said Kos is going to lay on Huges WTF? Kos will 100% want to keep this fight standing where Hughes is awful and much slower than Kos.
