Front kick!?
OMG! incredible...
And Jones is rewarded with a title shot.
for those who miss that kick...

I had Silva picked...but I did NOT see it coming from a front kick. Looks like Vitor didn't see it coming either ;)
Silva is too damn good and is so versatile.. crazy. I was hoping for Vitor.. he seemed to be reacting well and was game, just when the fight picked up.. whammo, heel to the chin, incredible
This could set up Silva/GSP is GSP gets by Shields....... What a fight that would be.........

I'm surprised Brock is rated so high. In fact, I'm surprised most of the UFC heavy weights are as high as they are.
Fedor #7 is a joke.Let's see if he can beat Henderson.
GSP VS Nick Diaz, october 29
a dream come true, just can't wait to see Diaz get is ass kick.
fuk i hate this guy so bad..
I rather enjoyed seeing Nate Diaz getting whupped against Rory Macdonald.
Everyone hates that guy. And he hates everyone too! It's a good arrangement!Quote:
