I was really hoping BJ could show some of the old magic... but that was painful to watch.  The Cody Vs Dillashaw TUF and fight should be fun. |

I rewatched it and I don't know what strategy or game plan Penn had (if at all). If Yair pressed the action with multiple kicks surely that would fire him up to, you know, do something about it? The end was just as jarring seeing it again as it was on the day - Yair went berserk almost! Poor BJ. |

He didn't have any tools to beat the speed and he couldn't seem to capitalize on the clinch to get him to the ground. |

Damn Ferguson is a dangerous opponent for Khabib. I really hope Khabib wins because I want to see him and McGregor so  ing bad. And I'm totally rooting for Holly in a few weeks. I feel so bad for her that she never was able to really take advantage of her win over Rousey. She had the Tate fight won until that last 2 minutes. And they need to schedule Romero and Bisping like yesterday. Michael Bisping is so whack. Hendo almost had his bitch ass. I can't wait for Romero to ing destroy that dude. Although I'm not going to lie, Romero definitely seems to be on PEDs. I hope I'm wrong though. |

I think he's afraid of Romero. I don't even think he could beat Rockhold again. Luke just underestimated him and took that fight off basically. Hell, I don't even think he beat Silva. No way he gets that decision if that fight wasn't in London. That being said, if Bisping fights Romero and wins, I'll take back a lot of what I say about him. That would be downright impressive, especially after what Romero did to Weidman. |

I don't think he's "afraid" of anyone... maybe he's afraid of losing, but that's a different thing. And I hate the way some people just act as though Rockhold went in there a lay down... true, he may not have been as focussed as usual in that fight, but he was still very dangerous and the defending champion... Bisping had to go in there and land the punches/knock him out. As for Bisping V Silva: Bisping would have gotten that decision against Silva pretty much anywhere (...maybe not Brazil) - it certainly wasn't a hometown or gift decision... most people/media/websites had it pretty clear-cut: 1, 2, 4 to Bisping and 2, 5 Silva. |

Eh afraid of him, afraid of losing to him... Semantics. I think his championship reign has been a fluke. And he absolutely should have landed those punches. Rockhold wasn't protecting his chin AT ALL. And afterward, Bisping didn't want anything to do with a rematch because he knew Luke would bring it the second time around. But look, Rockhold is mostly to blame. It's his dumbass fault for underestimating, hell even disrespecting the competition. Again, I think Bisping's championship reign is a fluke. But he's obviously not a fluke fighter in general. He's in the UFC, the best of the best. Now, if he beats Romero in any way that isn't a close decision in England, I'll be happy to take my words back on the fluke claim. |

Bisping's currently injured, eh Steve? Seems he'll be out until May.
Knee injury, I believe.

Tito Ortiz is the man who got me into this sport. Has been my favorite ever since I first saw him and I am more than thrilled to see him go out submitting Chael Sonnen in round one. Great way to end a career.

That had to be fixed! Chael can do much better than that.

After watching the video, I'm a little surprised Chael tapped. Tito never got the choke past his chin. I've only seen that once before and the commentators mused that perhaps the hold was so tight that the person tapped in fear of a neck injury.

Cris Cyborg just liked and commented "Boom" on my MMA Collection. :-). Totally made my night!

I've only seen that once before and the commentators mused that perhaps the hold was so tight that the person tapped in fear of a neck injury. Chaels face was turning purple. Let a man the size of Tito squeeze your head like that I'm sure you would tap from the pain alone. I mean I'm sure anyone would and if Chael thought he couldn't get out and panicked he may have tapped just to make the pain stop. I've read that some have gotten their jaws dislocated from neck cranks like this. I'm no expert but I wasn't surprised that Tito beat an out of shape Chael coming off of a three year layoff and off the peds. |

^ I wasn't too surprised that Tito won either - I still want to see Chael Vs Wanderlei though...  Bisping's currently injured, eh Steve? Seems he'll be out until May. Knee injury, I believe. Yeah... doesn't sound too serious, but he's having surgery. Hopefully they won't make ANOTHER interim title before he comes back(!). |

Appears that UFC might be booking Stipe vs JDS II for the UFC Heavyweight Title for UFC 211 in Dallas.

I think it's a poor decision to have Yoshiko make her MMA debut for Road FC given what she did to Act Yasukawa in 2015...anyone else hear about that?

I saw the video where Yoshiko did a shoot on Act Yasukawa. Disgusting by her to do. Anyways, maybe she'll do good on MMA, even though I'll be rooting against that piece of garbage |

She should've been blackballed from competing IMO. |
