I don't think Bisping could take Nate wherever the fight went personally.

He wasn't good off his back against an Olympic US alternate wrestler.

But Bisping is not that, I think Nates better standing and better on the ground.

Bisping is overrated and once the UFC realise they cannot push him as the golden boy of UK MMA he won't last much longer, there are better UK fighters coming through now.

I think Dan Miller will tap him anyway.

Anybody see StrikeForce?

Main events were a bit poor in my opinion, as was the brawl at the end. Hope the Diaz brothers get what's coming to them, both are worthless pieces of ****, as are the rest of the Shield's camp. Mayhem did not deserve a gang beating for his, quite frankly funny 'hey buddy, where's my rematch!' comment.

A 2 hour show and we got 2 fights, yes they were both 5 round fights that went the distance, but I hope you could fit more than 2 fights in.

Jake Shields.... I don't know where to start, no denying he has talent he schooled Henderson on the ground. But he had mount in 4 rounds and had it for over 3 minutes at one point, and he was happy to just hit with girlie shots just enough to not get stood up. He was never close to finishing Hendo just wouldn't take any risks.

That was his last fight on his contract, with his win over Hendo the UFC may be interested in picking him up, then he can be fed to GSP or Silva depending who he wants to be beaten by first.

King Mo.... lay n pray the whole fight, can see he is still very new to MMA great takedowns but then just happy to sit in guard not doing much get stood up wash repeat.

Mousasi dunno what happened to him, his game plan seemed to be score an upkick KO again like he did on Jacare, or hammer fist from the bottom. No td defence whatsoever, was suprised how amateur he looked.

Pretty poor event, wasn't impressed.
 
Sonnen has a great style to beat Silva, but he really needs to work on his submission defence, has always been weak. Nate almost caught him in their fight, and he has been caught with the same stuff again and again.

7 out of his 10 losses are submissions.
 
Got caught, happens to the best of them. I don't see him losing the rematch that is supposed to be happening.

In a way I think it's good for Fedor, he doesn't have to carry that "unbeatable" weight on him anymore. Obviously I'm not counting the other loss due to the illegal elbow.
 
I think Wedum played possum he didn't seem rocked at all. Was just a bad decision by Fedor, Werdum is a former BJJ champion, always dangerous on the ground.

Didn't realise how big he was either, Werdum is a big dude!
 
Anyone can lose on any given day, it's the nature of the sport.

As much as I like Frankie Edgar, he isn't in the same league as a BJ Penn who is firing on all cylinders.

Matt Serra beat GSP but again 99/100 fights he loses.

There are so many ways to lose in this sport, even fighting cans you can get caught with a lucky punch.

Fedor has never stated he is the p4p king, it was a moniker given to him so M1 could demand more money for him. He is probably the most humble fighter out there.

Personally I feel Fedor will win the rematch, and will then be beaten by Ubereem.

To be honest, since fighting against (and looking good) a staff-infected and worn down Big Nog, it just strikes me as Frank is returning to his old, flabby ways with not training properly etc. Granted he beat Cheick, but then he got steam rollered by Lesnar and Carwin and to be honest I dont give him much a chance in this fight coming up.

For both of those fights he was in the best shape of his life? He bulked up to 265lbs and didn't look flabby at all. If you saw the training videos of him you would have seen how hard he worked for the fights.

I don't think he can beat Brock (again) or Carwin, but he is still a top guy in the division. Unfortunately I see him beating Nog again, Nog has got too many miles on the clock nowadays.
 
Gurgel just loves to put on a show, unfortunately for him it normally ends in him losing lol.

That punch wasn't deliberately after the bell, it's damn near bang on the bell. Was a devastating punch too!

The knee was illegal no matter how you look at it, whether he was already done or not doesn't matter, it was illegal.

Hope they let Noons fight Diaz again, don't think he would win again.
