I'm just glad for a different type of poster. Tired of continuing to see the same kind of poster with both guys throwing a punch.

Predicted Winners

 

[EDemp]

So pumped for this card!!! FOTN could be Phil Davis vs Rumble, though.

 

[Dale]

Everybody ready for "the most stacked card ever" according to Dana?

 

[Tapout]

Going to the bar tonight for this. Don't see it being anything too special but not a bad way to spend a Saturday night.

 

[Dale]

I'll deffo be watching this, just unsure whether it will be live or tommorow.

 

[Dale]

This Gomi fight was a pretty damn fun slugfest

Chris Beale with the FLYING KNEE KNOCKOUT

Andre 'Touchy' Fili maybe the greatest nickname ever

 

[PHX]

Decided to go ahead and start watching this.

 

[Dale]

Jesus christ Rumble looked awesome tonight.

 

[PHX]

That Ray Lewis tribute was dope by Jones very nice.

 

[PHX]

Jones got some damn good shots in there that round

 

[Deezy]

Miller and other midgets delivered, one of them I think Max Holloway looked like Frankie Edgar....if he had aids.

the fuck was Boestch thinking? Did he watch any tape on Ruckhold at all?

Rumble looked good, but where was the killer instinct? He could've ended Mr Wonderfuls night early if he pressed more. I mean Phil Davis and his corner were wilted and checked out by the third.

And another case of no killer instinct, Jones was pulling Glover's hoe card, but he wasn't trying to pull out a KO? Glover was already hugging up on him before the fifth, that's pretty much the visual description of "broken will" what more did he need?

 

[Slim]

Watched it. It was a pretty good show.

Jim Miller... mannnn he is moving up. He needs to get some tougher competition. That was a nice sub.

Rumble... he came back and he looked to be in good shape. He fought good for all 3 rounds. Phil did a whole lot of running but he still got tagged a few. Rumble... still not fully buying into him yet but he is looking like a good fighter.

Luke freakin Rockhold. Triangle choke and kimura at the same time. Never thought I'd see that. But mannnnn and he wants to face off against Vitor? BOOK IT!

Jones... just dominated. But it didn't really look like he was threatening to finish the fight. Just dominate and walk away with the win.

but I have to say overall this was a nice show. Many many subs. Something you don't normally see.

 

[The Cork]

Fun fights, some sick highlight reel KO's from Beal & Castillo on the prelims too.

I just can't bring myself to give Benavidez credit though, something about him I don't like. Vanilla midget maybe.
