Jones/Glover booked for UFC 171 in Dallas TX on March 15th

If Eric Silva was more consistent he'd be a top contender in the welterweight division. That was a quick and pretty violent fight.

The Souza fight is pretty good. Spent most of the 1st round on the ground. 2nd round standing. I can dig it.

 

[Slim]

Souza... once he has you on the ground... mannnnn you'll be lucky if you can get back up. But that was a pretty good fight.

 

[Slim]

Machida won the fight but it was a pretty good fight too. And dude... Machida stays freakin ripped.

 

[Chris]

Silva was really the highlight of this card. Dude just raped Sato in the worst of ways. Both guys looked good in the Souza fight, Souza just owned him on the ground. First two rounds of the main event were pretty boring, but it got better come the third. Good fight, decent card.

 

[Slim]

Machida seems to be doing much better at middleweight

 

[Deezy]

That card was boring, bunch of huggers clinching and talking into their opponents ear.....yawn

 

[Dale]

I'm gonna go along with that being real but I love the fact that the first thing to come to Chaels mind was to take him down

Reverse elbow for the win. Nice

 

[Kassidy]

anyone watching the fight pass event today?

 

[Dale]

I'm gonna be watching, not via Fight Pass though. Really intrigued by the Gus fight because I still feel he gets hit far too much for a guy of his size and the Melvin/Johnson has the potential for fireworks.

 

[Kassidy]

well has been a pretty good card, finishes for the majority of the card

main event time

 

[Kassidy]

Jimi just got his first loss; nicely done Gus

 

[Slim]

So pretty much as expected... Gus wins.

But Jones vs. Glover... that's gonna be one tough challenge. Can't wait.
