Dang, would have loved to watch Carla go down after TUF.

Now I really want to see Jedrzejczyk and JoJo Calderwood in a fight. Talk about some heavy hits for the size.

There's your woman's knock out bottles. Was that boring for you?

If you read anything that I wrote then you know that I don't care and didn't watch.

Dos Anjos looked really solid. I think that I'd still take Khabib in a rematch if he beats Cerrone.
Roy looked slow, lazy and lost. Those body shots were brutal.
Hendricks pretty much did exactly what I expected. Brown has good technique, but he's not physically strong enough for the larger guys in the top of the division.

So you left the room when the girls fight? That's just lame bro. You missed a very good fight. It was better than Allister and Roy. Allister had like 10 easy chances to finish Roy but ran around and out pointed Roy-lame.
Dos Anjos is a beast and Pettis looked a little soft- too much of the easy life. I don't think he took the fight seriously. His back was against the fence all night.
Brown looked like he gassed out early which is surprising.

the girl fight was a great fight bottles. it's a shame you guys won't even give it a try considering the new champ is a little wrecking machine. she's wrecked all 3 of her opponents and now she's champ, that division just got interesting


dos anjos straight took the belt by force. that's what I love about mma. you think one guy is looking unstoppable and we get a blow out like last night by the underdog.

some records were made last night. first lightweight Brazilian champ. first champ from Poland and only third champ from Europe.

I told my brother last night, I think khabib might be the next champ. it's great for a belt to change hands often, that's how you know a division is very competitive. light heavyweight was the same until jon jones came around.

I was also wrong about overeem, didn't think he'd be able to stick to a game plan like that. stick and move. it's weird because he never really sticks and moves. but man, those body shots would've turn any normal man's insides into mashed potatoes. heck, travis brown dropped from one knee and brock lesnar's liver got smashed

I'm not sure what all the hype about jojo is honestly. I've never really seen her fights in their entirety, only highlights. but from the ultimate fighter I didn't see much that impressed me. she's got some good technique, but I don't see what she can bring to the table against Joanna. she's not as decorated or accomplished of a striker and slower from what I can tell. Joanna lights her up I would guess


edit: I see that jojo has a good kickboxing record. but her kickboxing doesn't seem to translate to mma as well as Joanna's. would be an interesting fight because both are strikers. jojo would have to earn her shot at the title though, and i'm not sure she can even make it to the champ.

JoJo throws heavy elbows and knees the way Joanna throws heavy punches, though mostly from the clinch. I'd just like to watch the striking between the two is all. I used to practice Muay Thai, so watching those two would be enjoyable for me.
