[No More Sorrow]

Ryan Coture vs. Ross Pearson added to UFC on Fuel 9, they sort of threw Coture to the wolves in this fight, don't like this match up at all for him.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Couple of fights added to the TUF 17 Finale card

Demetrious Johnson-John Moraga for the flyweight championship

Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Travis Browne, and Meisha Tate vs. Cat Zingano

No idea who that John Moraga guy is, and I fancy Couture Jr to get slaughtered in his fight.

I guess also Bigfoot Silva and Cain Velasquez, JDS-Overeem are being booked for UFC 160 on Memorial Day Weekend, just a rumor for now but should hear something on it in the next few days.

You must have forgotten about Stefan Struve. Not a title threat yet but with his reach, KO power, submission ability and adding in the fact that he is 24 surely that makes for one hell of a fighter. He has proven so far that he is a talented fighter but struggled at times against the top opponents, with experience he will become so much better and once he figures out how to use his reach to his full potential I think that he will eventually be a title contender.

The curious case of Stefan Struve, although he is tall and only getting bigger in regards to his frame (Struvereem) he reminds me of Semmy Schilt with no chin.

He still isn't great at keeping opponents out of the pocket and leaves himself out in the open for shots to the chin, which is what usually happens during his fights, it when people with KO power like a JDS or Big Country that leave him with buckled knees and a confused look on his face. He needs to fix that to compliment his so-so striking and better jits imo.

Being young is just a starter, he needs to work on his defence more.

King Mo got KTFO with a spinning back fist.

Hype dead, lawls.

Hope they get Rampage in though as their feud was pretty funny.

trololllololol King Mo losing was the worst thing for Bellator this year. If they were smart, they would've made his fights a wprk, seeing as he is the only name they have.

[Slim]

Heh after he hit him looked like he tried to catch him and hold him up like... oops didn't mean to knock you out homie.

 

[Nerotheory]

Mo paid for being so cocky before and during the fight. Maybe give Mo someone who isn't gonna figure him out so easily.

 

[Deezy]

Mo would've gotten beat by Jenns Pulver or Gary Goodridge the way he looked in that fight.

Dana saying in the post fight presser that Aldo flat out refused to fight Pettis as he thinks he hasnt earned the shot.

Also said he'll force him to fight otherwise Aldo "wont like the way this pans out".

When did Dana start playing the role of "crooked promoter"? Something sure is twisting his tits nowadays. Guess he is starting to realize that Uncle Dana is going to get more attention than Mr. White.
