Two rounds of air guitar and Steven segal hands followed by a KO in the third.

Stoppage by exhaustion. One of my least favorites in MMA.

My SpikeTV stopped working as Bisping started talking. Probably for the better.

He's clearly been watching a lot of GSP tape during his training camp though. That post-fight apology was on point.

It's silly, but many fighters don't pace themselves. More annoying is stoppages like tonight, yeah he wasn't doing much except turtling up, but why shouldn't that be a strategy in itself? Bisping was hitting him a lot, Mayhem didn't look rocked, just tired. If Ali-Foreman were reffed like this, it would have been stopped due to Ali not "defending himself."
If its not silva and Sonnen in brazil then Dana white is one step closer to becoming bob arum.

The most one sided fight I might have ever seen in the UFC!
I can't say I agree. Miller did fine the first round and then Penned it.

Sonnen is fucking fight Munoz. That's the biggest bullshit ever. Sonnen is rag doll him.
Glad he said that to be honest. Not that it will stop people hating on him and calling him out but he has nothing for Anderson at all.
Good win for Bisping but I guess it only goes to that fighting cans and looking good in Japan only takes you so far.
Also for me Sonnen needs another win before challenging Anderson again. The problem of course is that the division is pretty thin so challengers are in short supply.
Yea, this and guys not making weight at this point in MMAs life bothers me a lot. I know it's not just 25min of work, as they train for months, but how can one be so unprepared for their actual display of work?
Like, hey, here is a chance to make many people's yearly income in one night.....shits the bed.
I know the weight cut is a big part of it for lots of fighters, makes me wonder if there should be a between fight ruling of having to stick within a certain range of your weight class and not to cut too much weight.

His nose looked like it was broken because after he got hit there he started breathing out of his mouth.

Thoughts on card:
Pre main event: top 3 card of the year, WEC NEVER DIE
Post main event: C-. I guarantee you Anderson had more intense sparring sessions at Chute Boxe than the fight Bisping put on tonight. No one should ever talk about Bisping getting a title shot ever again, which was ridiculous to begin with. If Miller wasn't a name, he'd get cut after tonight.
Greg Jackson small weights are wacky affable personalities and finish fights, who knew?! The 145 final would be a FOTY candidate if FOTY hadn't been wrapped up already. God damn what an armbar, especially under the circumstances.

Shonie is actually campaigning to be on the next FOX card, hahaha.
On the bright side, this stream has long gratuitous shots of ring girls in stockings.
Chamber, let us make sexytime together. :hump :hump :hump
edit: I mean, shit, "most one-sided fight ever"? It's not insane to argue that Mayhem won round 1. GTFO with that shit, Dana.
Guy I used to train with at Team Tompkins is one of the promoters for this org. My facebook is always spammed with him pimping his events. True story.
Jon Jones is always guaranteed entertainment.
This time next weekend, we'll be hailing him as Fighter of the Year, methinks....
Assuming you're being a filthy pirate, I'd go with the boxing fight.
My international satellite dish has Cotto/Margarito on mute at the moment. I think it's the next fight.
Bawh gawd, Clementi is wearing the crimson mask!

JMM's robbery showed that Boxing is even more rigged than pro-wrestling. I guess it's worth a watch if you still hate Margarito for plaster-gate.
It was equally as laughable weeks ago
I bet he was English.
Probably the same guy who said Cain was the #1 heavyweight all time.
File these next to #3 Heavyweight in 2012 Matt Mitrione and me picking Okami.
well, yes, of course it was.
(was it acrajag--aralkjsghah?)
I just think it was always absurd to treat MMA in a detached robotic manner where you simply look at the Win and Loss column as if that told all the story, especially considering one of the tired axioms of MMA is that of "styles make fights".
ie. whatever excuses one might make, from "Sonnen was on roids" to "Silva was injured", Sonnen has been the only human being at 185lbs since Ryo Chonen to make Anderson Silva look like a human being.
And if that's not enough to make you salivate at seeing those two fight again, then fuck you, what the hell are you doing watching this sport anyway?
Silva/Sonnen 2 falls in the same category as GSP/Diaz, in that, sure, he's not the most "objectively deserving" of a title shot, but fuck it, because it's a fight we want to see, and we all know that no matter how much Jon Fitch is the "#2 Welterweight in the world", he hasn't shown any reason that he wouldn't get his shit pushed in just as hard as the first time he fought GSP.
The title of "#1 heavyweight of all time" is still awaiting claim by Jon Jones some time in 2014.
Unfortunately I also picked Okami.
I "rooted" for Okami, but I don't believe I "picked" him. Of course, now that search has been de-nerfed, I am vulnerable to being made to look stupid for such claims. (Fucker has always been a cautious/slow starter, which benefits you nothing against Silva, obviously)
