Quick 116 thoughts

So I don't have to wade throough two pages of topics...


Sotiropoulos impresses me more with every fight. He will be fighting for a title in 2011...

Bonnar irritates the shit out of me (Not quite sure why), but I'll give him credit that he only loses to top tier guys (Not named Coleman)...

Loved Lytle's comeback. He'll never be a true contender, but his heart and desire make me a fan.

Leben gets knocked around and pulls that out of his ass (I'm guessing just as many here were predicting that finish as Brock's, right?)... I used to think of him as an embarrassment to our state, but the fact that he took this fight and beat two solid guys two weeks apart have me rethinking my opinion of him...

Carwin definitely impressed the hell out of me for 3 minutes. Mazzy and Levigne would have stopped that fight, and Brock was lucky that he got Rosenthal in there not jumping the gun. Carwin has got to work on his cardio if he's going to be fighting the likes of Brock, Cain and JDS who can take a punch and force more than 5 minutes of fighting. I have come to actually like Brock with his interviews leading up to this fight, and actually consider myself a bit of a fan with his interview after in which he did nothing but come across humble and give all the credit in the world to Carwin (People can have life altering moments or events, and I believe that illness may have been one for Lesnar), and the fact that he's now shown he can do more than just maul someone. If he doesn't learn how to move that statuesque head against guys that can throw like Carwin, Cain or JDS, his chin may "eventually" fail him though. I think his chin is too strong for Cain and think that now that he's knocked the rust off he will finish that fight in routine fashion... Anaconda choke after unleashing some GnP...

All in all a great card... 9½ for me...

I briefly had it as my Sig before those Longhorn bastards raped me.

lol... That's why I never make a bad bet...

I have one with CuBua coming up and don't remember what it was for, but I'm sure it's a sure thing on my end...

With the exception of the Bonnar statement, I agree. I love Bonnar, he is effing crazy.

Yeah, not sure what it is about him that irritates me. Love his attitude about fighting. Think he carries himself pretty well. Just something that gets under my skin a bit...?

BJ Penn does the same thing to me man. I understand.

Bonnar is great and he's finally found steroids he can take to even the score athletically with some of his opponents that won't get him popped. Good for him.

Bonnar is like Scott Smith to me. Ugly and frustrating but damn do they have heart. Might not have all the skill in the world but they are born fighters.

Maybe Soszinski just wasn't that much better to begin with...

One of the girls I know was at 116 and hung out with Jay silva and Kongo. She doesnt know shit about fighting but said Silva is really loud and Kongo really quiet and humble.

take it for what its worth

Something about Bonnar irritates me too. I like watching him fight but not a fan of him when he commentates or does MMA live

I haet bonnar

Bonnar is like the opposite of a natural fighter.
