Lightweight bout: Sam Stout vs. Jeremy Stephens

Fight of the night, right there. If it goes past the 1st round I would be shocked.

 

[Shzm13]

Shogun was robbed the first fight. I like Machida, but Shogun was the better fighter imo

I want to see this:

Heavyweight bout: Kimbo Slice vs. Matt Mitrione

Especially if they truly fight. The last guy Kimbo fought just stayed away and kicked from a distance ... he didn't want to fight ... and Kimbo wasn't as aggressive as he should have been.

 

[CorporalCardinal]

I have NO interest in Kimbo Slice, guy is the Zulu of UFC. However, seeing Shogun and Machida go at it again is perfect, Shogun got screwed the last fight by the judges.

Kimbo is a chump and he quit. He does not deserve to get in the octogon EVER AGAIN.

Koshcheck may be the biggest doushe on the planet..

For the 2nd time in as many fights he faked a phantom injury to stop the fight and regroup... apparently he forgot AGAIN there is slow motion instant replay to show him being a complete ***** by faking like the knee landed...

What Daley did after the fight was also inexcusable, and he should be out of the UFC, but Koscheck pretending to be hurt so he could regroup or force Daley to have a point taken, is just as despiciable..

He got what he deserved when that douche Daley landed the illegal knee a few minutes later.

He was definitely faking but I don't think he was regrouping, he'd landed a big punch about 5 seconds before the phantom thing if anybody was hurt it was Daley. It was weird because it looked like before that he had no blood on his nose, after he had blood on the bridge of his nose. I think it was Rogan that initially said I think he broke his nose, then the replay we could see nothing landed at all. One of the other fights the guy appeared to injure his knee by getting kicked and on replay it looked like the kick didn't land.

Daley's postfight cheapshot punch was also really obvious, he was trying to sneak around Koscheck to get into position to deliver the left hook, he wasn't just trying to hit him he was trying to knock him cold with a cheapshot, he should definitely be suspended. I thought the ref did a great job he actually kept Daley from landing with full force he got a piece of him as he was throwing the punch, still did some damage to Koscheck's eye.

I'm guessing when Koscheck was over him near the end of the fight he was taunting him and Daley just couldn't take it.

The main event was pretty good.

The main event was pretty good.

All 3 and 1/2 minutes of it. Shogun has been the light heavyweight chamo in my book since the last fight. He proved it last night.,

Dana White cut Daley from the UFC altogether. He said that Daley will never fight in the UFC again.

Yeah I'm not surprised on Kimbo either he came out balls to the walls for about 30 seconds and then just stopped fighting after. I assume he was gassed but he was literally waiting for the ref to stop the fight.

Good move with Daley the sport is dangerous enough in the fights, without someone like Daley putting someone's health at risk post fight. Aside from hitting the other fighter what if he'd hit the ref when the guy tried to step in?
