Ya, I only read about it (broken foot) after I made that post. Now it's understandable why Aldo only threw one leg kick and was more passive than normal.

[richardbb85]

aldo shouldve backed off and let the judge end the fight after zombie popped his shoulder

Anderson Silva wants to bring in Chuck Norris and Steven Seagal.

THought he also got robbed in the davis fight.

Loved Moraes on brazil tuf. Glad he was able to show is slick BJJ skillz and win at home!

Aldo first breaks his foot in the first leg kick and now he has kidney stones, sucks to be him atm.

Man, if KZ didn't get his shoulder popped, I'm pretty sure he could have one the fight. Such a crazy fighter, trying to pop it back in during the fight. Can't wait to see him back.

Nick Newell was super impressive last weekend, for those of you not familiar, his the guy w/ only one full arm, he's missing one hand and most of the forearm. But this kid gets better and better

Marlon Moraes also looked great, WSOF has a couple of guys to keep eyes on

[escobar929]

sick card this weekend!

looking forward to every single fight, specially Connor McGregor. This kid is a stud, been watching him since his day at Cage Warriors, has a tough ahead of him but keep a look out for him

I'm keen as well mate! Should be a good card. DW has spoken very highly of Connor, seems like the real deal. I'm keen to see how Overeem bounces back after his loss by brutal KO. Also hope Shogun comes up, he's been training with Freddie Roach and doesn't punch like a girl anymore Keen to see Faber as well.

man, good call on Overeem, this card is so stacked I kinda had forgotten he was on. I want to see how he looks at the weigh-in (4pm EST), he looked like a body builder against Brock and kinda pudgy against Big foot. Think depending on how he looks, whether I pick him or Browne

A better punching Shogun is a scary thing, hope his cardio is up to par, if so, this may be the end of Sonnen

Faber is the best 135er other than Cruz and Barao (and of course, our cars ), Yuri is a hot prospect, going to be a sick fight!

I just saw a photo of Overeem and he looks no where near as big as what he used to be. Travis Browne actually looked bigger than him. I think he looked the biggest when he fought Lesnar and there were suspicious circumstances surrounding why he couldn't submit a blood test.

I hope Shogun knocks out Chael. That would be awesome. I hope he still utilises his kicks though as that's a big part of his game.

Agree with you on Faber, he's definitely one of the best and always in the mix. Have not heard too much about Yuri though.

Pretty stacked card. It's going to be a good one.

[san~man]

Some surprises for sure tonight....

[BMW86]

Wow... Wasn't expecting Overeem to go down like that. He was a beast at the start. He seemed to have gassed. Devastated about Shogun but Sonnen looked impressive. Never expected a sub though.

[san~man]

IMO reem didn't gas, he got caught cause he was careless

That McDonald boy has a lot of potential, so much talent for such at young age

McGregor has some crazy unorthodox techniques, he's like a little, white Irish Machida.

[richardbb85]

reem looked a little more human this time, lmao

[BMW86]

I hope they don't cut Reem. I enjoy watching his fights and he's a beast at HW. He started off really strong and I was surprised the ref didn't call it off. Full credit to Browne for weathering the storm. It reminded me a lot of Velasquez v Lesnar.

[escobar929]

yea, Browne took a beating, props to him for hanging in and then KOing Reem like that

Didnt see that coming from Chael either, MacDonald looked outstanding, hope him and Faber fight next, who also looked great after a big first round scare. Dont know what happened to J-Lau, he's normally a beast but wasnt into it, Michael Johnson looked good though

Great card, lots of sick KOs and good subs, just about every fight was good. Connor couldnt get the finish but looked good even w/ a hurt knee

Why post when you did it all for me LOL! Feel the same way entirely on this card and results.

Problem with Reem is that when he gasses he resorts to K1 defense...... You don't have huge gloves tho -_-; Everything will go through.

Dare I say after this show, PRIDE era fighters are officially a thing of the past now?

yea, it seems if you can tough out his initial onslaught, he's pretty much done, although easier said than done lol

[Garduna]

Struves has a serious heart condition! Hope the kids gets well and makes a perfect recovery. Not a big fan of his but he always brings it. Entertaining fighter.

Belfort v Hendo rematch on 9 Nov in Brazil

Starting to think we'll never see Belfort fight outside of Brazil again due to TRT. Belfort's a beast, I see him taking this one.

[san~man]

I guess they're not giving Vitor a shot at the winner of the AS/CW rematch?
