Those last 2 fight were awesome! I thought Tito did enough to win until they showed that Forrest landed a lot more significant stikes. Chael kicked ass in the first round but he should've stuck to the game plan instead of trying to bang with argubly the greatest striker in MMA history. So whats next for Anderson? Super fight with GSP?

I don't know what Chael was thinking. I thought he would start the 2nd round just like the first, going right for the takedown. For some reason he tried to box with Silva and I REALLY don't know what he was thinking with that wild spinning elbow. Silva won but I figured it would go the distance not end in the 2nd round.
I thought the ref did a terrible job. The fight could've gone longer & Anderson was grabbin' Chael's trunks for a minute it seemed and the ref never saw it.

Super fight with GSP? I think Forrest took off because he assumed he lost. I thought Tito did enough to win and thought he'd get the judges subjective votes based on it being his final fight. I would rather see Anderson fight Jones. Silva toyed with Forrest en route to making him deaf for a few minutes the last time he went up to 205 lbs.

The prelim fight when the Russian kid won was even worse. Even the announcers assumed he lost and that was durning the last round.

Anderson confirmed during the press conference that he's staying in the MW division. If Hector Lombart gets pass Tim Boetsch via TKO or KO, I wouldn't be surprised if he got the title shot.

Silva >>>>>> Lombard, but Lombard can catch anybody, anyday. Unlike Sonnen, Lombard doesn't have to try and win a decision, he can come in throwing his lunchboxes.

Does that have to do with his friendship with Machida?

Does that have to do with his friendship with Machida? Dana mentioned something about him having a hard time getting back to 185 when he has to defend his title. I don't know the exact details but he said it during the press conference.

Lombard is a more vicious striker than Sonnen. If he obtained a ground and pound position on Silva, I wouldn't like the champ's chances.

Don't look now, but here comes a guy named Chris Weidman. He made Mark Munoz look like roadkill.

Weidman is a beast. He's a really athletic wrestler, been hyping that guy since he came into the UFC.
