Chuck's standup was on point though. Wish Silva would have thrown more knees and kicks but oh wells
why anyone tries to go in a standing fight with Chuck i will never know.

I have no clue. He's a black belt in BJJ you think he'd try to take it to the ground or at least capitalize on his strengths in muay thai. He didnt do bad but his striking is not on par with Chuck's as far as punching goes. He was outmatched in that regard. Only person I've seen that can outgun Chuck on his feet is Rampage

Silva should have known better.

GSP wiped the floor with Hughes. Again.

i got all the fights right except for wand and palelei.

disappointed wand didnt use the MT clinch. or maybe chuck was just good at avoiding it?

palelei/sanchez sucked balls. guy has an 8-1 record all wins coming by ko/tko and he didnt look like he could throw combinations during the fight.

gsp and machida did not disappoint. i was very impressed with your performance.

I was disappointed Hughes lost but GSP was impressive. That submission combo he got in the end was sick. Leg triangle to kimura to armbar.

GSP is going to rock Serra. Silva should have gotten inside Lidell more.
