I'm still getting used to your names.. TRex Jr. is Gary Russell?

Good match up, but he hardly fights

I'm looking forward to the jr middle card, also have groves/Cox. That being said, the three cards combined could barely measure up to a poor UFC ppv.

The matchmaking is definitely better in the UFC. The fights ain't though.

Groves and Lara fights are mismatches.

The Groves fight JUST happened. It wasn't a mismatch. It was highly competitive.

It was not competitive. Whatever Cox was doing didn't bother much bigger, stronger and technically better Groves.

I will be at the Barclays Center tonight. There is a promising heavy on the undercard George Arias, the Dominican fighter of that name.

I wonder if Johnson’s seen the money in Heavyweight scene at present and actually bothered to train/prepare as he looked completely gone v AJ/Pulev.

As I stated before I have no idea how Groves was -380 for much of the summer against this guy. The odds correctly majorly this week up to -900.

Groves only loses to the elite.

REALLY embarrassing. I was joking when I saw this matchup made "Pianeta vs Johnson sounds like something they'd threaten you with to shake you for information"

"TELL US WHAT WE WANNA KNOW OR YOU'RE WATCHING KEVIN JOHNSON VS PIANETA!!!" :lol:

Maybe Kevin Johnson actually trained a little this time like someone else suggested, and it wasn't as abysmal as his performances usually are.

This Ramirez/Demarco fight is the best chance for a good fight on this card.

Premature stoppage, but Demarco dragged Ramirez into a war quickly, and Ramirez didn't know how to get out of it!

TKO 1 Antonio Demarco

Surprising!

Good while it lasted. Ramirez didn't really know what to do when DeMarco started to fire back.
