| Rashad and Rampage suck at talking shit. All they do is repeat the same line over and over for like 2 mins before switching to a new one and then finally walk away. Weak | |

| I always liked it when Rashad would start off by making fun of Tiki, but the tough guy stuff got real old real fast, especially when we realized pretty early that there wouldn't be a fight between them.
What's weird is that every once in a while I would see them acting cool with each other in the background. I think a lot of it was just show. | |

This. Dana is no better than the Shaws. Maybe even worse. | |

| Well he's not headlining cards with Kimbo, but he is getting preferential treatment. I would rather see Demico Rogers get a shot over Kimbo. Houston will knock him out anyway. And there is no way the Shaws would have let him fight Roy Nelson first -- they would have told the coaches to save him for the last fight in the first round and made sure it was against someone beatable -- probably would have recruited Tank Abbott again. | |

In some fights the size difference just wasn't fair. |

| First off, I am of the belief we need a Cruiserweight Division. I mean guys are going up against HWs with like 40-50 pounds weight differentials and that does change the tactics. But more importantly it would add another division, in which we could have another Champion and add to the luster that is the Championship fights! Plus with all the injuries going on with the Champs, with the exceptions of Machida and Penn, it would give us some change ups in where fighters fought. Wandy isn't doing well? Have him try Cruiser. Hey the Spider is having weight cutting probs? move him to LHW. I think it would solve a bunch of problems, particularly for the UFC. | |

In some fights the size difference just wasn't fair. But those smaller guys are well within range to make 205 if they wanted to. Not to mention, the smaller guys did quite well in most of the fights. Heck, Brendan Schaub's not all that big, and he's in the finale. | |

| I have been preaching a 235 division for awhile now .. that is all I was saying when people were saying they wanted a 165 and 195 division .. which is unnecessary ... | |

| I just don't like the idea of splitting the least talented division in half just because of Brock Lesnar. | |
