Which 100% corn fed cracker smoking a P4P dominant WEC poster boy was more shocking?

Who has the more boring personality?

Who is better?

it's a tie for shock value. Both were huge upsets. Honestly i think Bowles is a monster. He is mike brown but with better submissions and an absolutley iron chin.

I never really thought either should have been as big of an upset as they were. Mike Brown was a much bigger fighter, who had fought bigger, stronger fighters than Urijah; Brian Bowles is a well-rounded beast with a chin of granite, fast, strong hands, and an awesome accent. As for their personalities, they don't have a lot of personality, but they're both fun to watch fight. I'm never bored when watching either of them fight, so I don't really care that they don't have a ton of personality during interviews.

Both huge and both kind of similar.

The Bowles over Torres may be bigger just because most knew Brown and a lot of other fights picked that fight.

im going MTB. I was completely writing him off. Faber was in cruise control coming into that fight. Where as with torres, as has been noted, he's actually been in some dog fights of late.

I'd say Bowles because Brown was a little more known. I gave Brown a better chance. I thought Bowles was too wild and left himself open. Turns out the champion fell for that reason.

Bowles still has to improve if he wants to retain that title. A good pro boxing coach would be a must.

MTB. I though Faber was going to just destroy him.

I picked Bowles to win.

I was equally shocked by both fights. The only thing I hate about either one's personality is Mike Browns crying. I really hate crying. As for who's the better fighter I'd have to say Brown.

I think it was Brown. I just thought Faber was to skilled to lose to him. I gave him the old punchers chance but that was about it.
