I honestly think GSP would get wrecked in a fight with Silva.
UFC 126: Silva vs Belfort/Griffin vs Franklin/Jones vs Bader and MUCH more - 2/5/11

I finally got around to watching it, and is it just me or was the first fight (Torres vs. Some dude) a midget wrestling challenge? The guy looked like he was half the size as Torres. His reach advantage was astronomical.
what was funny was that banuelos was often literally putting himself at torres's range. torres would come into banuelos's range and banuelos would back up to exactly where torres would keep peppering him with his jab and banuelos's strikes would miss by a foot. is torres's striking really that scary that banuelos couldn't have made more efforts to get inside? i loved that he finally charged in with 10s left and was like FUUUUCK after the round ended. like was he thinking he'd just get punched the whole fight and then score a KO in the last ten seconds? and in that case why not just go for it in the first 10s and spare all of us the rest of the fightindustrian said:
it was really frustrating but this is the "new and improved" miguel torres. he was clearly basically treating it as a sparring match to improve his striking. i don't blame jackson though i think this is the direction miguel wanted to go after getting caught out in the bowles and benavidez fights. he is probably mostly washed up though

Since Jones has to fight again in six weeks, does he have enough time to cycle?

I wish I could get excited for 127 but don't see it happening.

I'd have given the title shot to Rampage or Silva.........and give Jones one more fight before a shot

Was hoping Shogun would be the favorite so I could make money. Shogun is coming off too long a lay off and given Jones style--destroying mofos from the clinch, I see it being a bad night for Shogun.EviLore said:

He took a kick right to the face and then a few hard shots straight to his head, he was in la-la land
Brock had his hands up and was moving around after he was knocked on his ass

Uh... Belfort was knocked the fuck out. And wasn't defending himself on the ground.

2 straight jabs on the floor, and he could barely put his hands up for protection
fair stoppage, he was out
i actually thought the stoppage was LATE but i'm really not into watching semi-conscious dudes with their arms at their sides get punched in the face. belfort went stiff like bisping. i think when a guy goes stiff thatswhatshesaid that's it. doesn't matter if he recovers a couple seconds later 95% of people who get KO'd or choked out recover in a matter of seconds
most likely outcome to me is more jones hate leading up to the fight, then after the fight just like the last five jones fights people going hmmmm well it would be nice if someone gave jones a challenge but what can you do? we'll have to see how he responds when he's really tested. followed by talk of all of shogun's injuries. let's just do jones-davis already and dispense with the formalities
didn't you have bader in the fight last night? or say he's being underrated? i think maybe you are the one betting with emotion.Bishman said:

Vitor was out man.
dem said:
None, huh? Well no need for the fight now, let's just hand the belt to Jones now. I think JJ has a good chance of winning, but it's not written in stone, I think it'll depend a lot on which Shogun shows up and whether or not his knee will hold up because JJ will definitely test it.

He was out mang. That stoppage was in no way early. He was not defending after he got kicked.

what the fucking hell is dem going on about
dem said:
Yes, it would have. If he was completely unable to move his hands from his waist to his face nobody would question it.
There's also the "what the fuck dude" rule. If a fighter can't immediately get up and ask the ref "what the fuck dude", it was probably a good stoppage.

now you are playing semantics with a phrase (knocked the fuck out) that doesn't even have an exact definition. The kick knocked him out of his wits, he was out of his feet before he hit the ground and Silva pounced with a punch right after that sealed the deal. Vitor wasn't even able to put his hands anywhere near his face to protect himself. If the ref hadn't stopped it he would have just eaten one or two needless shots, he had zero chance of recovering at that point. And to top it all off, it took him like 2 or 3 minutes AFTER the fight to get up and recover. He was done. You don't have to be asleep to be KTFO or for a fight to be fairly stopped. You are right, he could have recovered, he wasn't completely out or asleep, if this was boxing and he was given a standing 8 count, but it's not and Silva would have just punched him some more if the fight were allowed to continue.
