Todd Duffee on His Knockout Loss To Mike Russow- http://bit.ly/9tohAA

Hathaway Reflects on One-Sided Upset http://shar.es/mdhBe

Quick picks:

Overeem v. Brett Rogers – Hmm.. interesting matchup, two strikers. I’m picking Overeem over Rogers.
Antonio Bigfoot Silva v. Andre Arlovski – Man, I want Andre to win this… I’m hoping his chin is good tonight.
Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza v. Joey Villasenor – Jacare by submission
Roger Gracie v. Kevin Randleman – I’m a Randleman fan…but I think he’s getting submitted tonight.

LOL…that is a bummer. I thoroughly enjoyed one of the Mayorga/Thomas press conferences I watched, and was hoping to see them fight, but apparently Don King did not want to see it.

I like how the fighters just chilled against the cage. What happened next? Did they start fighting again or was it over?

As for Paul Daley, he clearly deserves to be banned. Dana White has said that Daley will never again fight in the UFC under any circumstances, even if he somehow becomes the #1 fighter in the world someday (which will never happen), Dana said he will still never allow Daley back in the UFC. I honestly don’t care if I ever see him fight again or not. I’ve never even bothered to give him his own category here on my blog.

Paul Daley showed absolutely nothing in the way of being a contender, as far as tonights fight goes. He lost every round to Josh Koscheck and was just easily dominated throughout the entire fight. Part of me wants to think Daley was just mad at himself for being so unprepared in this fight, and after being outclassed in every category and realizing he doesn’t have the skills to be a top contender, he felt he had to save face by sneaking up on Koscheck after the fight and SUCKER PUNCHING him from behind. LOL @ Paul Daley for not even being able to hurt Koscheck with a sucker punch from behind, especially after all the trash talking he did about being able to knock Koscheck out.

AS FOR KIMBO, I don’t think he deserves to be cut quite yet. Yes, he was dominated by Matt Mitrione, but Kimbo still has drawing power, and fans. Kimbo also has seemed to handle himself with class thus far into his pro MMA career. Kimbo could still sell tickets and draw good ratings for a non-PPV event.

Mauricio Shogun Rua New UFC Light Heavyweight Champion http://shar.es/m6UqL

Mauricio “Shogun” Rua defeated Lyoto Machida by KO in round 1, ending the controversy surrounding their first matchup, in which Lyoto Machida was awarded a decision victory, despite many people who thought Shogun should’ve been the winner. This was Machida’s first loss.

Josh Koscheck TOTALLY dominated the trash-talking Paul Daley, and won an easy decision victory. I don’t think Paul Daley really showed any offense at all, until after the fight was over, when he snuck up behind Josh Koscheck and sucker-punched him with a left hook to the face. Unbelievable. There really isn’t any excuse Daley can give for his actions. I’m sure he’ll try to say he was full of adrenaline, or maybe even make up a lie about Koscheck saying something rude to him during the fight… but who cares. Daley seems like scum.
