Well great night for me going 4-0 with 3 dog wins. Diaz is a monster and I love watching this guy fight. Loved the way he stopped the second hook in the first round when BJ went for the back

When I took Palaszewski it was a decision I expected after the Griffin weight issues. I did not expect him to knock his block off.

Hioki did not look good. Ok it was his first UFC fight but the major concern was the ease that Roop took him down. Wrestling. offensive and defensive is something Hioki needs to improve. His trip takedowns are good but he needs more than that to compete with top guys.

The Kongo fight was not good.

Cerrone is climbing that ladder quickly.

Some of Curran's scissors sweeps were great to see even if they did not quite come off

dude...that was a 5 star card....beautiful...:0074

Dude ur word is so worthless around here. If i lost id leave. If u lost u would be back the same night with a different name.

Typical response that I expected. It's so kickserv esq. Anyone could say "I'd leave, but I know you wouldn't, that's why I'm a pussy and don't want to man up to the challenge." - That's basically what you said.

They can block my IP, not hard to control. So if you ever grow a sack, let me know. Fights are so much easier to pick when you're just picking fights and not betting lines. We will see who's "worthless around here."

Diaz is a punk and a brat but bottom line, his fights are exciting, I will admit I like watching his style of just stand there and throw.

I see St. Pierre taking diaz down a couple times in a boring victory, I guess diaz has great cardio so he has that going for him.

Good lord some of these salaries are bizarre. if i have to hear NIck Diaz cry broke again i might send him a few dollars. Meathead really rolled in the cash. I hope the hell he saved his nfl money. How the hell does he get 10 grand when the win bonus was 70 grand? Is Kongo really worth this much more than Nelson? The Vera Marshall win bonus was this much and is Vera even worth what he got compared to these other guys?
Did people actually want to see Vera over Hoiki?
