He seemingly can't miss tonight. Looking good so far, accurate punches and good ground work.

Not the most athletic guy, but his ground game is strong.

Absolutely can't stand Angela Hill. Jessica turned down a title shot for this fight; she'd better win it.

Hill with no glove touch, then proceeds to get beat all around the ring

Keep it up, Jessica!

Again won't touch gloves, runs like a bitch and gets slapped around the cage I wasn't looking forward to this fight but I'm enjoying it.

She's tough, gotta give her that.

No matter how much they try to sell Hill, that was a good old fashioned ass whuppin'. Andrade's accuracy is shite, that was a 30-26 fight at best.

It was, but she showed a lot of heart.

She did, heart and toughness. And it was cool seeing Andrade showing class after the fight despite Hill twice refusing to touch. Classy gesture by the much better fighter.

*Edit: and I'm not sure how we didn't get at least 1 10-8 round out of that beatdown.

Holy size discrepancy...

BOOM!!!!

OSP rocking some unnatural nips.

I've heard good things about Oezdemir but this is the first I've seen of him. Looking forward to this fight.

Oezdemir was looking very good in the first, but both guys are gassed bad in the second.

Get that cardio sorted and you've got yourself a pretty good fighter.

*Edit: Ah he just said he'd been training for a Heavyweight fight and started to cut for LH two weeks ago. That would definitely explain some cardio issues.

Korean Zombie comes straight out of the military and knocks a top 10 guy out in under 3 minutes. Shame he had to do his national service there's some good fights for him at FW. I would pick him against Max.

He's too weak defensively for max. Not even close.

He was absolutely gassed at the end, even minutes after the end of the fight, he was huffing and puffing, cardio doesn't look great.

I know earlier on the thread we were talking about how Sonnen has always been a quitter. Sonnen vs Silva 2 is a free fight on at the moment and the thing that I never really noticed before is that the tide turning against Sonnen to being quitting and being finished is all of about 45-60 seconds. Now I now Silva hits scary hard( I remember an interview from Koscheck and Fitch about how they couldn't believe just how hard he hits after watching him on the pads warming up before a fight) but still really a prime example of Sonnen always being a quitter I think.

I do believe the zombie would be one step behind most everything Max does, but would still have his moments. I'd love to see them fight.

...as far as Conor is concerned, I guess he figures he can't really lose any belts if he doesn't defend them.

Semtex and Rory announced by Bellator. Good fight!

Very nice fight. I think Rory is the better all around technician. However, Daley has that one hitter quitter.

Unless he is a complete shell of himself now, Rory Mac will dominate Daley.

Yeah Rory has way too much of everything for Semtex...but that power!! It'll be an edge of the seat fight IMO.

I don't think Rory is gone, but I do think the Lawler wars took something out him. I expect him to be the better technician in there, but he is not the most defensively sound fighter either. If it goes the distance, I expect Rory to be the victor. If it ends early, it will most likely be by a Daley punch.

I would predict Rory by decision, but I think Rory by submission is also a possibility.
