lol yea, exactly. Dana even said this was the first time ever, that the coaches agreed and he still doesnt make the Josh vs Uriah fight. The other two guys arent as marketable so yea, he just wanted the bigger fight for the finale but I'm hoping Kelvin pulls off the upset like he has done all season long

Yeah Hall is always beasting. I'm sure dyle will give him a solid 2 rounder since he's got so much heart. I wonder who he's gonna be facing in the finals.

I can't stand that salmon surfer guy. Always looking for the easy fights. Shit don't work like that in the real world homie.

yea, he annoys me too, he's clearly scared of Uriah and avoiding him at all costs

UFC on Fuel. Mousasi got the win but he's gonna be out for a bit with knee surgery..... fack. Guess Gus will have a new opponent then in the near future.

Madadi took one fucking vicious leg kick from M Johnson but came back and got the impressive sub.

Tor from TUF also got a sub against the kid that Hall KTFO lol! Kid looked like he wanted to tap, didn't and tapped moments later xD

yea, Mousasi looked pretty good considering his knee was jacked, hope its not as serious as he was saying it was

Ross Peason also had an impressive KO w/ a pretty injured foot too

Mad props to Madadi, thought he was going out after that head kick, specially the way he hit the ground.

but to me Connor McGregor stole the show, holy fuck! been watching him for a while on CageWarriors but didnt think he would be that impressive in the UFC

Invicta FC had a damn good card too

McGregor looked really good. I can't wait to see him fight again

Oh ya I forgot about Invicta FC. Will have o check that out as will! ONE FC also hard a card. Aoki is a champ once again!

TUF spoiler....





















As impressive as Uriah Hall has been all season, the semi-final was the most impressive for me. Not only is Dylan a tough dude but to TKO someone from the bottom... wow!

Glad Kelvin won, I really like him and Samman was a huge d-bag through out the show

Yeah for sure. He knew that Dylan was gonna go all 3 rounds and potentially go for the take down. Played safe and out struck him from the outside but wtf, Ground and Pound from the bottom O_O?!?!?!?! If he gets better with his takedown defense and sprawls along with a little better conditioning (since he strikes so much). He'll be nearly unstoppable!

Kelvin totally owned samman. Funny how the kid wanted to pick all of his opponents and look what happens. Gets takendown and manhandled like a bitch.

I can't wait for Kelvin vs Hall. Should be a hell of a fight. Loved their initial staredown too haha. All they were doing was smiling at one another haha

[escobar929]

lol yea man, both stare downs were pretty funny

Ended up watching the UFC card on the weekend. Didn't watch it live because it started at 4am over here but watched it a few hours late. Glad I did because all the fights were great, plenty of finishes. TUF semi final episode was great too. Unfortunately I saw the spoiler on FB so I knew who won. Glad Kelvin put Samman away, I didn't really warm to his personality. Uriah Hall was a given. It almost looked like he was showing Dylan too much respect and can finish the fight at any time. I think Uriah is on another level to these guys, he's definitely UFC caliber. I'm not sure if he'd run through the 185 UFC guys as easily but I think he'd make a case for being a top 10 very quickly if he beats the right guys. I think Dana was a bit shocked when Samman won, not hugely disappointed, just surprised. I do think the 2 best guys made it to the finale though.

Dylan lasted longer than everyone else! mega props to him!

yea, I'm not sure how Uriah will do at 185, his only two losses are to Weidman and Phillipou, which are near the top of the ranks. My guess is he drops to 170, where I think he can do damage, even though its a deeper division than 185

I seriously thought that Dylan was gonna bring the heart....... He went in already defeated inside... -_-

I think Hall will do ok at 185. He just has to deal with the wrestlers.

Speaking of that, if he goes down to 170...... there will be A LOT of wrestlers. Considering he's got like no bodyfat, going down another 15 lbs won't be easy.

[escobar929]

Connor McGregor wants to replace Joe Proctor (got injured) and fight at UFC 159, hope he gets it!

On paper his only 2 losses have been to top 185 guys, I don't actually know any of the guys he's beaten and whether they would be considered top 25. So he puts away average fighters easily. I can't always tell on paper though but he does look impressive, his technique is very explosive and violent, it seems like he possesses true KO power which is always dangerous. I think he'll slot into 185 well if he can handle solid well rounded guys like Okami.

That will be awesome!

yea, Okami is the true gate keeper for 185, if you can get past him, you're a contender

sadly, no Connor McGregor for 159, Al Alquinta (who was fighting Proctor) is now injured too, so that fight has been cancelled

[Garduna]

Hah, Okami really is just a gatekeeper now. I'm sure he's making good money tho.

Who else here is looking forward to the bout between Tate vs Zingano?

[san~man]

Spoiler















i saw it split decision the other way. I thought hall outstruck him the entire 3rd round, but I guess judges still weigh too heavily on TDs

[BMW86]

Great card, awesome fights as always. Really enjoyed the female fight, except it started to get hard to watch once they started to get bloodied up. They are very talented though. I really thought Hall would step up and win but he didn't look like he was there mentally.

yea, I thought so too but Kelvin seemed to be the more aggressive also, so maybe to weighed in to the decision too. Hall wasnt into it like he was during the show, there was no killer instinct, so i dont hate the decision

yea, great card indeed.

Tate v Zingano was pretty damn good, although I thought it got stopped a tad early. Meisha is tough as nails, she took more punishment in her last fight w/ Kedzie and still won, but of course the worst ref in MMA had to ruin it

[Garduna]

I had it for Hall in rounds 2-3 but I think the judges took Kelvin's pace and takedowns more than overall striking points. Not upset with the results tho as I'm a fan of both. Heard that Kelvin will be making his way down to WW. Makes sense. Hall's german suplex was a thing of beauty, reminded me of Jon vs Bonnar.

It was a really good card and man, the women delivered again! Cat's knees are a thing of beauty to watch

[escobar929]

yea, the women are bringing it

cant wait for this weekend! strikeforce vs UFC

war bendo!
