The heavy weight fight was a dud....
But last night was unreal! Best fight I’ve seen a long time.

Those are two really beat up dudes.
I guess Bellator had a title fight and Eddie Alvarez finally lost.

Well, there's the TUF finale.... Hopefully Bisping will get embarassed and somehow get destroyed like he did that last time he fought an opposing TUF coach. Although he is fighting Mayhem who isn't known for KOs.
After that i think Jones and Machida are set to fight on 12/10/11? Maybe? The fight schedule has been so packed lately I forget..... but yeah, after that is Brock versus The Reem

Best thing ever?
So...Everyone picking Jones? I wonder if Machida is coming in as an underdog on the books. I would probably have to say yes, but by a small margin. I just don't think he matches up very well with Jones. I think it will be someone like a Rashad Evans (but not him, just that small, powerhouse build) that will have to get inside those long fucking limbs of Jones. Either that, or someone that can take him down and submit him, without Jones mounting and busting cheeks and eyesockets with that fucking elbow.
Now, I will say one thing in Machidas favor. He's been sparring, training and fighting a guy for years with a very similar style-set as Jones, and even a similar body type, in one mr Anderson Silva. -

ah, shit Nick..I just now saw that hendo/shogun pic..Damn. That was an amazing fight man. First fight in a long time that had me actively "holy shit"ing the screen while watching that didnt involve some sort of knockout or crazy finish.
And yeah, sadly Bisping didn't get hendo'ed. -

140 was a pretty good card. Mir breaking an arm off was pretty amazing... that is until I witnessed a grown man choke another grown man unconscious from the standing position and then drop him to the floor like a sack of potatoes. As much as I like Jones, it was nice to see him face some adversity and get hit a couple times... solidly I might add. If this kid has a strong chin, there isn't a fighter on the horizon @ 205 who will threaten his run. It's entirely possible the only person that will defeat Jon Jones is Jon Jones. Rashad Evans probably shit himself after watching what he did to Machida.
Also, anyone notice that Overeem might not actually fight Brock? Something is up with him and they're looking at replacing him with Mir.

can't believe mir snapped big nog's arm though, holy crap

it's not his fault.... Machida should have tapped. Was he supposed to gently lay him down? Big john said hold all submissions until he separates them. He separated the two fighters and Jones let him go. No big deal. If you don't want to get dropped on your head, tap out. Machida's camp didn't have a problem with it.
Nog's arm was a clean break at least. That was pretty awesome.

So theres a little fight on tonight, eh? It is tonight, right?
I think the Dream New years eve show is on, too. I will have to look around and see if I can find a stream for that one. Their New Years show is a huge fucking production and is always cool to watch. -

I agree about Jones. I think Machida was trying to tap out but he was on his away out before he could,lol. However...Jones knew he was on his way out or was out....he didn't have to let the guy drop like that. But...I suppose the ref should have been there to catch him on the way down so I guess that is not Jones's fault either. Jones is awesome.
