If it wasnt Dana Whites golden boy, it would have been stopped. Still not convinced one bit by Lesnar and Fedor would defo tear him a new one.

Pretty sure the 3 uk MMA'ers who have just been signed by the UFC will fight at 120, including a lad from St Helens

How can you not be convinced with him???

Herring,Couture,Mir,Carwin all top level opponents that hes beaten.Dont get me wrong im not his biggest fan and hes not a complete fighter but hes fighting the best and winning!

I believe the ref was right to let it go on.He was covering up and moving all the time..Carwin gassed himself out going hell for leather and had nothing left for the 2nd round..he shouldnt have put all his eggs in one basket and he would probabaly have won.

Was good to see someone kick the out of him briefly though!

Yeah looking a good card..think i will be going down to London for this one..Also rumours of Rampage lil Nog which would make sense with him training over here but sounds to good to be true for me!

If he beats Velazquez and Dos Santos too, there can't be any doubt - he would be a hall of famer.

Even if he doesn't beat those guys by the time he retires he most defiantly, imo, will be a hall of famer.

The guys a freak of an athlete and although he can come off as a bit of a goon his dedication to his training and learning the sport is 2nd to none. If he’s already beating the guys like Herring, Couture, Mir & Carwin who is gonna stop him if he continues to improve? It’s gonna have to be a freak of a person to outmatch Lesnar.

I'm also strangely intruiged by a Lesnar v Nelson fight, I have no idea why as it wouldn't be a contest either.

I read somewhere that Nelson and Dos Santos are fighting an eliminator for a title shot.

can't see nelson getting a title shot, most TUF winners are scrabbling about lower cards for years after getting through. in the main they never seem to get anywhere near the top of the card or the main event.

And i say this having just watched kendall grove get his 8th win after being TUF being a great prospect but over the last 3/4 years he's been a bit .

Nelson is Vastly underated. I think hed beat any heavyweight around with the exception of Carwin, Lesnar and Fedor.

The ref said that Lesnar responded to his instructions when given.

Bisping v Akiyama comfirmed as the main event for 120...

Very disapointing,why theve put a guy on the main event whos just been beaten by middleweight gatekeeper is beyond me!

I am a bisping fan but he aint a headline fighter neither...English fans have been short changed on this one.I will probably still go as i love the ufc events but a little underwelmed.

Because Bisping is the most well known british UFC fighter so put him against someone he cant lose against (ie, someone of below average skills) and all the knuckleheads who read zoo and watch bravo will be happy.

Appaling main event!

You've got a guy coming off a loss against a fighter that Bisping destroyed not too long back to fight that very person.

I for one am sick of Michael Bisping getting given easy fights on UK Cards to suit the crowds. I personally think the guy is a fraud who will never have the talent to win any sort of UFC Title, and only hangs in there because he constantly gets easy fights so that the UK Market has interest. Dana White is a smart man, he knows that having Bisping seem like a top fighter keeps the UK fans happy.

That being said, I like the Hardy/Condit and Hathaway/Stungun fights, just feel a little short changed by the card again.

Dan Hardy is the premier english fighter in my opinion

Me and the lads, who haven't missed a UFC in England, Ireland or Germany so far will be giving the one in London a miss and heading over to Germany in November instead which will cost about the same.

Appalling card. Although the Fan Expo they're supposedly having in London could well be on the cards for us.

Got to agree with that but needs to improve his al lround game and not just be a Brit banger like the rest..

Hathaway could be a breath of fresh air for the UK..Also a fan of Terry Etim who has more than just a stand up game!

Any news on who will fight on the Germany card???

Hardy has been on a sabbatical, travelling the world and working with the best wrestlers and ground game coaches around, trying to improve his ground game. Its not going to happen overnight but its a start.

Has anyone watched the Sung Jung v Leonard Garcia fight from WEC 48 yet?!

Seriously if you haven't....track it down immediately, it's possibly the craziest fight ever!

SPOILER ALERT !!











So, the pre match mouth from Chael Sonnen was actually backed up... awesome performance for the first four rounds, in fact all five rounds as he was on top in the 5th too before losing to the submission. Anderson Silva's biggest test yet and was lucky to walk away with the belt in tact.

Full marks to Roy Nelson who came out with a lot of credit despite losing by simply taking every punch Cigano had to offer and withstanding them... just.

Good nights entertainment.

got up and watched the silva fight, fook me i knew that was going to happen, i'm surprised chael's corner didn't remind him to watch out for something like that, i was worried about it from the first round.

Awesome fight, silva looked pathetic for 4 and a half rounds and it was hilarious to see sonnen 'tango'-ing anderson when he was holding on for dear life.

Dont talk wet.

The era of Fedor is over. Brock is the NO1 heavyweight and rightly so, it's going to take somebody special to beat him. Looking forward to Lesnar Vs Cain.

Did anyone see Randy coutures son ryan making his mma debut on strikeforce challengers on bravo2 last night??

Quite impressive,secured a triangle choke in just over a minute an tapped the guy out..obviously didnt get to see what hes like standing for long but could be one to watch for the future.!

Chael Sonnen fails drug test after fight with Anderson Silva... oh dear... Dana's got a lot of work to sort that mess out now.
