I like underdogs too. But seeing someone master a technique like that and just dominate everyone with it? I can't not respect or not love it.

Great fight.
I'd give SOTN to Kenny Robertson for the kneebar and FOTN to Grice/Bermudez. |

It was only exciting because Bader decided not to sit there with his thumb up his ass the entire fight. Machida hasn't been exciting since his first fight with Rua. After Jones beats him I think they need to keep his ass off of PPV's if he isn't coming to fight. Actually I'd cut his ass all together because I don't want to pay to watch him paint the fence and wax the car for 90% of the fight and putting him on fox isn't going to do anything but turn the casual fan away which is what they are trying to do with those cards. There was a reason he got the shit booed out of him tonight.

I wonder if Dana, being the douche he is, will have the balls to put Rousey in with a high level striker or someone good in the clinch.
I won't hold my breath. Carmouche should've finshed that RNC...thought for sure she had it. |

The problem is, there isn't an elite women's striker with a good enough ground game yet IMO. Honda hapes nearly everyone on the ground in women's MMA currently, including Cyborg should they ever meet up.

Rewatching the Hendo-Machida fight, Hendo didn't really have a great gameplan. IMO, given Lyoto's stance/movement/arm position defensively, they should have altered Hendo's best weapons (inside leg kick to OHR) to an outside leg kick followed by a left hook. He's got a solid LH (Wanderlei 2 as example) and the outside leg kick like his usual ILK could have planted Lyoto long enough to land it, especially if Dan had been able to close distance/utilize it near the cage. Additionally, this strike also will take Hendo out of optimum distance/angle for Lyoto's straight left.

Late bump due to Decimalgate and I also wanted to post this Fedor highlight.
Damn. It's really a shame he declined right when MMA was hitting its peak. Absolutely wonderful technician. |
