Big Foot looked pretty good still not top 5 for me at all. Would like to see Big Foot vs Mir next and Browne vs Hunt.
I watched that Batista fight it was the worst thing ever, he cannot punch at all was the most akward striking I have ever seen.

No wonder Booker T dropped him backstage in WWE. 
I wouldn't mind seeing him concentrate on wrestling though, I think he'd be solid at that as he has a lot of amateur experience (or is that Lashley I'm confusing him with?) and was in decent shape for such a heavily muscled 43 year old. I think he could be a pretty solid GnP fighter in the minor leagues, won't ever see him in the UFC though.
Props to him though, gotta respect the fact he did it, the guy he faced might be a tomato can but he'd still smash anyone in this thread, including myself. Dave is rich beyond any of our wildest dreams and wanted to do MMA for himself, I respect that. You can't not respect it, really.
Also what is the deal with Bigfoot? He's 2 inches shorter than Overeem yet 30lbs heavier? What the hell, how does that make sense... He isn't anywhere near as bulky as Ubereem, does his chin weigh 40lbs or something?

He never wrestled at all in school, that was Lashly who has a pretty good college record.
Also Bigfoot's head is about twice the size of Overeems and he's a lot broader than him as well just not as defined.
Looking forward to the upcoming fights this weekend.
He looked good wrestling though, who knows.
God what is happening with Mayhem? He's changed so much, hes a horrible person now.

There's been suggestions that Mayhem has bi-polar disorder, which would explain quite a lot. Also, I'm pretty sure Bigfoot has Acromegaly, hence why he looks a bit weird and probably adds a bit of extra weight for his height.

Indeed. Did you see him on the MMA Hour? I cant link cause of swearies but this was the reaction after.
Speak for yourself. If I get dropped my that can I'd give up fighting.

The build up for this has been great, hope there are some more before satrday

Weigh ins just happened. Bonnar looks considerably bigger in my opinion. Anderson was in at 202 which makes me think he didn't really cut weight. I can see Bonnar being a good 20lbs heavier than him by fight time tomorrow.
Also I want Bonnars body for my own. So chiselled

One of the first times I've seen blood spurt in time with heartbeats in the octagon. I think Maia could be a real force at 170.
Best card I have seen in ages.
The silva fight I am lost for words what the hell, who on earth goes and stands back against the cage like that and just eats punches like he is having breakfast. Who ever said he wasn't all that when he was fighting Sonnen and was nut hugging Sonnen, how can you think otherwise? I mean WOW just wow.
Entire card was awesome though. The Maia fight was good he looked sharp. Phil Davis looked really good as well. Jon Fitch fight, he schooled that Silva so one sided it was like a kid in a wrestling match with his dad it was so one sided and dominant.
