What a set of fights. 1st time Nog gets stopped, Silva KO'd and Rashad new UFC Champ. All upsets... glad I didn't bet!!

Griffin easily won the first two rounds, peppered Rashad with jabs & leg kicks... While Rashad just did the Ali Shuffle around the cage for 10mins or so, laughing and smirking as he was blatantly hurt imho.
Midway through the 3rd Rashad caught Griffin, did a couple of mins of L n P (Griffin looked to have recovered and was going for subs off his back until I commented that "Rashad isnt as explosive when he's in guard") then he finished it with some brutal G n P

Wasn't shocked by any of it, just pissed off I didn't pull the trigger on my triple yesterday. I was on Stan James and had a Jackson-Mir-Evans triple and I was willing to chuck down £20 on it but I didn't. I could have been £300 richer right now. I even called the way Rampage would win, exactly as he beat Liddell with a hook after a cover and roll. So as much as I'm kinda happy (I'm a big Rashad fan), I'm also a little sad.
Re-watching the Mir/ Nog fight, I think Dean stepped in and stopped the fight a little too eagerly, Nog was moving and he had his hands out. Fair play, he may well have been stopped a little later, but I just think Dean, as usual, made a questionable call for the time.
you didn't watch Nog fall onto his shoulder then when he was getting up, and then wobble as he stood?
Nothing questionable about that decision - nobody questioned it except the fans who wanted Nog to win. Nog took it on the chin (so to speak) like a champ (well...former).
"Awww, so you lost darling - but it's the taking part that counts" My Mum... thanks for nothing Mum.
gutted all fichters lost I wnated to win except Jackson. Fucking hate Frank Mir!!!
I disagree fella. He was knocked down 3 times and after Dean stepped in when he got up, he couldn't focus and stumbled and tripped. To me anyway perfectly justified stoppage. WAR MIR!!!!!!
Meh...........
I was there last night. It was a great show, shame about Mus.
i'll never smile again
