i love the nogs, i love shogun, i like palelei and struve, i dont know who the tuf guys are... in terms of importance though, this fight should probably have been the co-main. at least its a title eliminator. but even dana knows, unless the name is ronda rousey, womens mma doesnt sell anything. thus our co-main is two guys coming off being brutally knocked out.

[Hammer]

10-9 gadelha. bigger striker, big takedown at the end to cap it off. easy one.

[Hammer]

20-18 gadelha. picking aguilar apart.

[Hammer]

30-27 gadelha. rogan and goldberg can be very fucking annoying sometimes, this round was right up there. rogan raving about how aguilar was really coming on strong, and taking away gadelha's power... i wish dan hardy and the other british guy would become the main commentators.

[Hammer]

needless to say, every judge had it 30-27 for gadelha. mercifully, they dont have to listen to joe rogans idiotic ranting. gadelha vs joanna 2 i would presume is up next.

[Hammer]

they charged me 60 bucks for the card tonight. they should give me a discount and only charge me 30 bucks for mighty mouse/dodson. i still probably wouldnt pay it, but at least id consider it.

"look for palelei to try to test bigfoots chin early"

*goes for a takedown immediately*

good call mr rogan

[Hammer]

10-9 palelei. bigfoot was a little better on the feet, but palelei finally got that takedown, and had some good gnp. it looked like bigfoot was a little wobbly walking back to his corner after the round ended.

[Hammer]

if you just stand there trying to cover up, a heavyweight as gigantic as bigfoot is going to eventually knock you out. circle, take a weak attempt at a takedown, do anything but stand against the cage with your hands covering your head.

10-9 struve. he clearly won the striking game, nog had a ton of cage control. might be a toss up round for the judges, but i thought it was clear for struve, because nog did nothing with the clinch.

[Hammer]

20-18 struve. struve is clearly the better striker. in terms of pressure and cage control, its big nog. he even had a takedown, almost locked in a rear naked, and even got full mount. and did absolutely no damage with any of it.

[Hammer]

10-8, 30-26 struve. i dont know how nog didnt go down after that head kick. clearest round of the 3. the first 2 though, in brazil against a brazilian fighter...

[Hammer]

hey hey, the judges were good. 30-27 across the board for struve.

[Hammer]

10-9 lopes. that was straight awesome, on both sides

[Hammer]

20-18 lopes, better striker in that round.
