I thought he was done in the 3rd round and was pretty surprised he didn't finish it in the 2nd, glad he came through though. Also, Igor Pokrajac vs. Fabio Maldonado was a great fight, i have no clue how those guys were still standing at the end. Pokrajac took some serious body shots

Jon Jones was arrested for a DUI by the same sheriffs department he did police training with not too long ago.

I'll never understand why rich people drink and drive. Where's the entourage?

I don't get it either Hoops.

Renan Barao will fight Urijah Faber for the interim title at 148.

Fedor said he will probably retire after his fight with Pedro Rizzo.

Can someone send me a link to tonight's fights I'll be stuck celebrating a promotion with my gf and won't have time to make it to my friends with showtime I can't wait for Barnett Cormier. The winner is top 5 hw in the world. I'll take Barnett bc of his experience. I also hope Melendez keeps on his roll he needs to be in the Ufc already.

I wonder if this will hurt his potential Nike deal, hope not as that will be big for MMA.

Gilbert was the aggressor, pushed the pace and controlled the octagon for the most part. Can't say he is the definitive #1 LW in the world but he is up there for sure.

HATE how Cormier finished that fight, just a little too athletic and fast for Barnett, who had a few good moments.

Also, Bob Sapp is a joke and is making a mockery of this sport. Fighting every week and taking dive after dive, this shit has to stop.

That was a good card last night. Melendez v Thomson was another good one that could have gone either way. But in order to beat the champion you have to make the decision decisive or ko him neither of which Thomson did.
Barnett hit Cormier so hard at the end of the 1st I think, I cried.
