silva is so ****ing boss it just defies reason

just keeps his hands down daring him okami to throw a punch, okami gets him in the head, that just pisses silva off and he immediately throws a harder punch landing square in his face and knocking him down

edit: and silva finishes him

Wonderful main card tonight. If I was a Brazilian I'm pretty sure I'd be blackout drunk for the like the next 2 days.

Pretty sure this isn't the first time Joe has missed a broadcast. Randy and Kenny and filled in before.

In the last few episodes that I've watched of UFC Unleashed he wasn't present in two separate fights so he must have missed a few events over the last 5 years or so.

hugely impressed how Pearson can take such a beating but is able to pretend it's not happening.

Barbosa was good.

i don't know what to say about Silva except amazing.

looked like Silva just wanted to beat Okami up instead of stopping him, sick ****er.

has Griffin retired yet?

he shouldn't be allowed into the cage with any more top fighters.

Griffin still has several years ahead of him as a Franklin-style fighter. He'll mostly fight gatekeeper fights or 'legacy' matchups from now on, I would imagine. Kind of like how his last two wins were against Tito and Franklin. I'm a huge, huge forrest homer but he's definitely done as a top contender. But that doesn't mean he can't beat up the Matt Hamills of the world and put on some more entertaining fights, which has been very good at throughout his career.

i was a bit hasty with my 'retired' comment, but i agree Griffin shouldn't be allowed in with the top guys any more. i'd rather not see him get beat so easily again.

yeah Overeem vs Lesnar is going to be fantastic. I'm actually shocked that Lesnar would accept this fight as his comeback. If Lesnar can't use his wrestling background to take down Overeem it's going to be a real bad night for Lesnar. I don't like this fight for Lesnar at all.

Unlike some other fighters, Brock has always wanted to face the best and toughest opponents instead of fighting opponents that will give him easier wins.

How much of a shot does Hendricks have against Fitch? Gonna try hard to go to this and will be betting most every fight. Seems like a winnable fight for Hendricks, I really don't see Fitch winning outside of a close decision, and he has been injured and out for a while, plus I don't think his ju jit su advantage matters a ton here.

Really? If you believe that, I think you'll be excited for the betting line.

yeah, because before he got sick he was totally ducking people...

Brock's fights throughout his UFC career:

Mir - Herring -Couture - Mir - Carwin - Cain - JDS (scheduled but Brock pulled out) - Overeem. That's one of the nastiest introductions to MMA in history.

You could reasonably say that Brock's last five scheduled fights are against the current five best HWs in the world not named Brock.
