Steve Mazzagatti sucks.

I'm glad Mir got the submission, I was hoping for him to win. As far as Lesnar goes, I'm actually pretty interested in seeing him fight some more, especially after he gets some more training under his belt. His strikes looked pretty damn powerful, and I cant wait to see those combined with a more well rounded MMA game.

+1 internets for the first person to post a gif of the ending of Heath vs Boetsch.

Lesner just looked too spastic. He reminded me so much of a white Bob Sapp, just rushes forward, slings fists and hope something hits. Im glad for Frank, I think he should get a shot at Werdum to decide who goes for the Heavyweight next instead of just ushering Werdum into the title fight.

Im also so happy Nog beat Sylvia. I think Nog is the most successful person with an mma version of the rope-a-dope Ive ever seen.

I hate watching Nog fight even though he's one of my favorite fighters and he probably has a 90% chance of winning any fight if his opponent isn't Fedor. He has an insane chin but you can clearly tell that he's being hurt except he never goes unconscious. His chin isn't like Hunt's where you can't tell if Hunt is even feeling anything at all.

so much for dana white's speech about quiting a UF show and never working in the ufc again.

Man, Lesnar was just dominating that fight completely in a sloppy way. Then he just stood up and looked at Mir as Mir smoothly wrapped his leg around Lesnar. What the fuck was he thinking hahahha. That was a hilarious match. I was laughing at how Lesnar was whooping on him so poorly, then at how much Lesnar gave him the match. He should've just kept it standing!

[huh]

Emerson never quit TUF. Atleast I don't remember him quiting or being kicked off. I do remember him being apart of that hilarious double KO/Sub with Gray Maynard that happened on the TUF final show though.

Monster Lobster, Wes Simms, and I think Noah were the three that got kicked off.

Was it me or did Nog look totally sluggish in the early parts of the fight? I don't know if that was just part of his game plan or what, but I was a bit worried in the early rounds. So so happy that he pulled out the win though.

As far as Lesnar goes, I think it went the way a lot of people expected. I figured Lesnar would do exactly what he did, but find a way to finish Mir. Props to Mir on keeping his composure and finishing him when he found the opening. He really exposed how much Lesnar still has to learn.

Holy shit, the way David Heath got thrown to the ground was pure awesome! I would also have to disagree with the submission of the night. I personally think it should gone to Almeida.

I was frustrating to see Brock get subbed like that. As soon as I saw him put his leg like that I knew he was fucked. Very frustrating to see he was doing really good up to that point. He's pretty damn quick though.

Nog...typical Nog fight. Gets his ass kicked and then subs the guy for the win. He's done that soo many times it's insane. He truly is #2 in the world(Fedor #1), imo. I firmly believe if Randy doesn't fight him he's ducking him.

<--Drunk as shit. I think that's the best fight I've Seen Sylvia fightl He was actually pressing the fight instead of turtling up. That it all. Time to pass out.

Yeah but did anyone else notice how Sylvia was only explosive for the first 3 minutes of round 1? Then he turned into The Sloth we all know. It was weird to watch.

Not sure if its gas tank problem or mental. At first I thought he was gassed from being in Nog's guard so his diaphragm was being obstructed because he is a tall guy. But then I thought no way, this guy has gone 5 rounds and trains to go 5 rounds. But there was an OBVIOUS difference between the first 3 minutes Sylvia, and the guy for the rest of the fight. But it was nice to see the old Sylvia for a few minutes.

Early speculation is that Hardonk will probably get thrown to Lesnar, after taking a look at all the heavyweights who have fought recently/booked. Sanchez and Hardonk are the only matchups making sense for Lesnar next.
