    Riki won that fight.

    Penn won the first two rounds, but that last round was all Fitch. I think they scored it 10-8. Humble in defeat was Penn. I was pretty surprised when he entered in the first round and grabbed Fitch instead trying to box with him. Fitch just bullied him in that 3rd round though. In the first two rounds, had it been anyone in the lightweight division with BJ on their back, it would have been lights out. Fitch is just the bigger and much scrappier guy and everytime BJ secured the hooks Fitch easily spun around and just hammered him.

    As for Bisping, f**k that dude! For real! The hype is done, get on with it. Spitting and telling Rivera and his camp they were losers was uncalled for. That apology afterwards to the fans and public was bullshit.

    Riki Fukuda was paid his win bonus by the UFC. Dana White thinks he got robbed.

    To ever pwn Bisping, that is all you need to show.

    when Bisping walked over to Rivera at the end of the fight, Goldberg had his "show of class" line all ready to go but just as he said it Bisping starts yelling at Rivera, I thought that was hilarious.

    Yes! We were laughing at that too. Bisping was anything but classy in victory. Shows how formulaic Goldy can be.

    I think he was being sarcastic when he said it.

    It ended up being that way but if you listen again he started giving Bisping credit for going to Rivera's corner after the fight and realized midway into his sentence that Bisping was being a dick so he kind of laughed through the end of it.

    This seems logical now. BJ looked like he was about to cry when interviewed after the fight, was he going to retire if he lost? No shame in losing to Fitch.

    Ebersole is fuckin nuts.

    Anyone got a vid of the Hunt KO? Didn't catch it.

    I think a BJ-Fitch re-match would benefit a lot from being 5 round as well. Does anyone know if BJ is making an effort to bulk up to compete at 170 long term? Seems like hes non-committal about it and willing to fight undersized so that he can return to lightweight if he wanted to. But he didn't get man handled until the end of the Fitch fight so I wonder if he had another 3-5 months to add some muscle how much of a difference that would make. IMO the re-match has to happen, Fitch is clearly the best fighter at 170 behind GSP and Penn just took him to a draw. Gotta make it happen Dana.
