    The Mike Bisping/Matt Hamill angle is flaring up big time.</p>

    Hamill keeps saying their tilt will determine who the "real" winner of The Ultimate Fighter is, which is pretty insulting to the Count.</p>

    The Count has been calling Hamill a one-dimensional fighter with dreadful stand-up, which he is, and is all but guaranteeing victory.</p>

    Also, I just made the mistake of visiting Sherdog. Don't visit any MMA websites.

    I like that this is free! I'll check it out.</p>

    I'm only a casual fan of MMA, but I've seen a few of these guys.</p>

    I saw Cro Cop get knocked out last time, but I also saw Kongo and he seems taylor made to get Cro Cop a win.</p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (XxDJxX)</div><div class='quotemain'>Quintin over Henderson, round 1 KO</div>

    Tough fight to predict, I called Henderson winning the decision.</p>

    </p>

    Six of nine isn't bad but my Cro Cop and Sakara picks were atrocious.</p>

    Anyways, how the hell did Bisping win his fight? Home town judges on that one.</p>

    Good free PPV. Probably better than the next one coming up. </p>

    Houston Alexander has some vicious knees. I don't think they planned on the fight ending this quick, nothing but commercials now.

    Yeah he hasn't been the same since Feder dominated him in K1. Seems to have lost the intimidation factor after losing that match. </p>
