[LEFT]
He looked HUGE on the preview on Fuel. He was way bigger than Rashad.

I read that his body shut down and he couldn't feel his legs, scary.

I still feel he may lose his job, this is his third time missing weight and not by a little bit, by a huge amount. He better hope he comes out and smashes Vitor tomorrow night to put some doubt in Dana's mind. Nate Marquardt is a free agent again after leaving BAMMA without ever fighting.

Slick leg lock.

I just saw Barboza's knockout pop up on Deadspin. WOW

Paul Harris is fucking scary, dude will take your limbs home with him. He is a tank! Massenzio was outclassed though.

I just tuned in. Why did Silva get DQ'd? I'm pissed I missed his fight. He was impressive last time I saw him.

Mirgliotta did a horrible job of reffing this fight.
