But that's one thing, man. Pointing out bad things is OKAY, its fine. This guy was CLEARLY insulting Belfort and Bonnar, making jokes of them. THAT I did not like.

Yes, he took both articles down and put up some apology article. Making fun of fighters and how they were knocked out in the past, then pretty much devaluing their past accomplishments is something an MMA journalist should NOT be doing. Insults aren't needed.

I'm more than likely going to miss at leased half of the prelims due to going to a dinner. Hopefully I'll make it home by the main card.

10-9 madadi, better striker, and got a takedown... which he did nothing with, but yea. madadi is much more conditioned to stand, he actually has some skills, and actually knows how to keep his chin down.
fernando yamasaki telling madadi to watch his mouth was fantastic. theyre fighters, not priests.

that was a really awesome round 2. they both struck well, marcello has a hell of a chin, madadi was throwing bombs and connecting. 20-18 madadi, but that was an awesome round.

29-28 madadi. fun fight... marcello wasnt as raw a striker as i initially thought. he had a good left jab, and he caught him with a couple nice body shots. he won round 3 with that left jab... and according to the numbers, he outstruck him in the 2nd round too. i thought madadi hit harder, so i gave him the round, but if they go on pure volume, they could go to marcello here. especially with the awesome brazilian crowd.

split decision for marcello... 29-28 madadi, 29-28 marcello, 30-27 (?) marcello. i definitely didnt see all 3 rounds for marcello, the 1st round i thought was pretty clear to madadi... rd 3 was clear to marcello i thought, and rd 2 was a toss up.

10-9 cane, he took his back, had the hooks in... he came close. good ground d by camozzi to get out of it. i thought camozzi won the last 2 and a half minutes standing, but he wouldve had to do alot of damage on my card to win a round in which you get your back taken. and he didnt. he looks to be the better striker though, something to watch.
10-9 camozzi, 19-19. camozzi is the better striker, and cane looks pure out uncomfortable standing. maybe the weight cut... maybe its camozzi putting the right jab on his face every time he tries to duck in and throw... but camozzi looks to be the better striker.
10-9 cane, 29-28 cane. very good round, they were both throwing and connecting, i thought cane had the bigger pops in the round. he came out throwing finally.

i like moraes... he had an awesome quote before the finals of tuf:brazil. he said about ferreira, "hes got a better shot of getting me pregnant, than submitting me". hilarious. he fought with good heart too... he got picked apart though. still, him and trinaldo were the two guys i came out of tuf:brazil rooting for.

Did Rogan REALLY just say it's easier to defend than attack? I would actually see both as equal... that's just me though.

moraes is awesome. shame he overjumped on that back mount attempt. 10-9 moraes, the fights pace and where it went was more or less dictated by moraes.

tough round to score. forte scored late, moraes had the takedown early that he didnt do much with... everything else seemed like forte was feeling him out, and moraes was gassed. 10-9 forte, at least he scored and did some damage. 19-19.

Those last 20 seconds of the last round were silly. He may have had him hurt and didn't follow-up.
