I've watched Mousasi once or twice. The one fight he looked bad ass and the next he acted as if he didn't even want to fight and it was a title fight if I remember correctly. I'm not sure how much I want to see Gus fight Bones.Raw Dawgin' it;1414622 wrote:Biggest thing Chael has going for him is he's fearless. He closes distance really well and i wouldn't be surprised if he got a take down or two. I've never seen Mousassi fight, but from what I've read he's streaky. I'd rather see Gus win and get him in with Jones.

I don't think Gus beats Jones, but I like seeing new guys get shots. I'm not a fan of rematches.bigdaddy2003;1414841 wrote:I've watched Mousasi once or twice.

Oh yes I'm in the same boat. Although it would be nice to see Bigfoot beat Cain.Raw Dawgin' it;1414903 wrote:I don't think Gus beats Jones, but I like seeing new guys get shots. I'm not a fan of rematches.

Rumors that Gustafssun has a bad cut and that he isn't being cleared to fight Mousasi this Saturday, hopefully the UFC can find a great replacement but that's going to be hard on less than a weeks notice.

Yeah, I was just interested in seeing how he would do against one of the guys closer to the top of the weight class.Raw Dawgin' it;1418533 wrote:I'm still interested in seeing Mousassi fight

Highly touted Irishman Conor McGregor just ran through Marcus Brimage in a minute.

Ross Pearson finishes Ryan Couture and Mousasi wins by unaminous decision.

Great card top to bottom imo, prelims were great. Brad Pickett and Mike Easton put on a great and high level back and forth fight. Matt Mitrione absolutely flattened Phil DeFries. Diego Brandao showed a lot of composure and improvement(which is scary). Peralta and Corisani put on a great back and forth battle as well. Mousasi put on a clinic with the jab, best jab I've ever seen in MMA. He apparently came into the fight with a bad knee injury that will require surgery. Would have liked to see a little more urgency from him though. Also, props to Latifi for stepping up and cutting almost 30 pounds in 4 days to take on one of the best guys in the division, hope he gets another shot with a full training camp.
