    thank Gawd CBS has Gus Johnson, this guy can make lawn bowling sound exciting.

    and yup, SHAMrock is out. Seth has not fought a lot the past few years and will be a small HW. But he's not simple banger, he may survive to a decision if he's smart.

    I can't even see the cut in HD!

    LOL I wonder if he was rolling with that meathead who was one of his coaches on TUF... that weightlifting buffoon.

    I can't help but LOL at the thought of Big Country Nelson stepping in the ring with Fedor. Arlovski sure, but Nelson... gawd that would be quick.

    Seth Petruzelli is indeed a good replacement for Ken Shamrock, no doubt about it. Here in the MMA world, he has never once been knocked out. All four of his losses have come by Decision, or Submission. So this isn't an easy guy to knockout.

    Not alone at all, I'm watching this, and taping Jackson/Griffin on another TV in the house. That was to good of a fight not to be able to have. The only fight I have seen this year, that was better than Jackson/Griffin, was the last Carlos Condit fight against that Japaneese dude. Without a doubt MMA fight of the year there, that match was amazing.

    I'm actually excited, to see Seth fight in a main event. He's a tough fighter, and I liked him on TUF. I would like to see how he fairs against bigass Kimbo.

    P.s. Ninja's getting his ass kicked right now.

    P.s. a second time, Looks like Ninja wethered it, and he is doing better now, but still getting his butt beat.

    benji appeared to gas and couldn't finish the deal.
    If he's got nothing left, he's getting subbed

    Rua should still take it to the ground IMO.

    another good knee, Benji is gassed IMO. Punchers chance is all he's got left and Rua can get careless at times.

    Rua need to work in his take downs.
    he shouldn't have stood as long as he did.

    Yeah, Rua got dominated on his feet, and couldn't take him down at all. Like you said, if he can work on that things might get better. He also needs to work on his stand up though, because he got dominated with strikes. Right now both of the Rua brothers have not faired to well in their last fights.

    Shogun had a torn MCL or ACL with his fight with forrest. I think he'll bounce back just fine.

    Ninja seems to be declining IMO, or at least not improving as the sports evolves and new fighters improve.

    Kobold has experience, will it be enough? Gina is a superb striker with a solid ground game.
    she should really fight at 145 though.
