Highlights of Hendo/Bisping before they get taken down:

Fast forward to 2:12 to see multiple angles of the good stuff.

"He's got a vicious right hand with a lot of power in it -- he's knocked out a lot of guys," Bisping said, before adding, "I think I'm going to be too quick for him. I don't think he's going to land that big shot. I don't see Dan Henderson -- no disrespect -- at 38 years of age, I think he's got to be slowing down a bit. I don't think he's going to catch me with it. ... Tune in to see the first time ever Dan Henderson gets knocked out."

bahahahhah fucking loud mouthed british prick!!!!

[OnlyOneBeerLeft]

this was a great night... i enjoyed all the fights and loved seein that brit piece of shit get knocked on his ass...

[Anthony]

Anybody got a still shot of Hendo in the air over Bisping ?



BTW was I the only guy to keep saying "where the hell did all that blood come from" during the first fight ?

That blood is from the prelims fight; which the UFC doesn't air on tv - unless the event ends way ahead of time. lol

The UFC usually has like 10 fights scheduled per event - we only get to see about 5; 6 if we're lucky.

Not going to happen any time soon. Fedor/UFC does not mix.

I really believe Dana has his back against the wall on this one, Who is he going to throw at Lesnar now? Cain Velazquez? - personally I don't think he's ready.

This would be a HUGE draw if he gets Fedor to fight inside the Octagon. It'll all be some USA v Russia shit; which undoubtedly will sell a shitload of tickets/ppv's - Which is a win for Zuffa.

Now the only "bad" thing about the whole deal is, Fedor will hold that HW division hostage & I believe Dana wouldn't like that very much.

That's the problem with heavyweight divisions in most contact sports these days (I'm honestly not going to look up anything beyond MMA, American Pro-Wrestling and Boxing so if anyone has more examples, more power to you...):

There's no real competition beyond 3-or-4 guys.

You get a guy who looks great as the champ to a general audience (a Cena, a Lesnar, etc.) with his company feeding him decent opponents to straight-up nobodies, all the while say "what a great champ he is."

In pro-wrestling, there's always the thing about going by the script so they never can build anyone past a certain point and allow them to break out because they're either too green (a Bobby Lashley) or have been beaten so many times that them winning the belt isn't believable (a 'Kane' or a 'Big Show').

In MMA, there's always that chance for a Flash K.O. or a freak/planned Submission but beyond that, it comes down to (as said before) out-sizing your opponent, outmanuvering them or a combo of both.

In Lesnar's case, he's lucky that he can train and study for his opponent for an upcoming PPV but beyond that, he's either going to be continually protected beyond a few name fights or he'll have no one to fight... IMO.

Sidenizzle: If there's a Mir/Lesnar III, Brock "The Cock" is gonna rape him again to the tune of a few more buys.

And it's amusing how everyone hates Brock so much.

Everyone I talk to that hates him always says something like, "he is disrespectful to the sport. he's not a MMA fighter, he's just a big roider who was in the WWE, he's not a good fighter."

dude was a world class wrestler at one point, like many other great UFC fighters.

If people only realized the list of current/former MMA stars who were/are "phony pro wrestlers"...

Ken Shamrock
Don Frye
Josh Barnett
Mark Coleman
Brock Lesnar
Bobby Lashley
Tank Abbott
Paul Varlens
Dan Severn
Kevin Randleman
Bob Sapp
Minowaman
Tito Ortiz

That's just off the top of my head, if I wanted to I could list over 100 guys. On this list alone you have something like 7 or 8 UFC champions.

I don't know why people get so bent out of shape, you don't hear anyone say "Fuck Randy Couture, he's one of those phony movie actors", or "Rich Franklin can lick my balls, I hated my math teacher".

Pro Wrestling is great way for these guys to make a few bucks when they aren't fighting, especially a few years ago when the money for fighting wasnt as good as it is now. The two businesses go hand in hand, cutting promos, selling fights, etc. It's a natural fit, and MMA/pro wrestling willl always be connected, so people need to just deal with it.

[Warner2BruceTD]

dana's reaction to brocks antics....

Notice how Dana is only pissed at Brock shitting on Bud Light.

Dana is LOVING heel Brock, heel pro wrestling Brock = $$$.

Wow, what a card that was.

How many punches did Mir land last night? lol

[Point Blank]

And damn, you'd think at UFC 100 they'd have a fresh mat.

Hardcore fight fans (myself included) don't want the sport to become like "Pro" wrestling. I think that's the issue, a great example of that would be what Brock did last night when Rogan was interviewing him.

Some people just don't get it, and never will.

That's the art of the promo, it draws money.

It was nothing short of great. Everything about it was great.

I hope you're joking.

[RyanLeaf16]

- Lesnar came off looking like an ass last night

- GSP dominated Thiago Alves in even more impressive fashion than he dominated BJ Penn at UFC 94

- GSP is going to have a long-run as the champion in the Welterweight division. I would love to see a catch-weight match between Anderson Silva and GSP

I scored 147 points in my UFC fantasy picks last night. I was pretty happy b/c I ranked 160th out of 24,865 who participated.

While Kimo wasn't a pro wrestler, he had that kind of heel persona.
