Oh I forgot about that fight.. Man Melvin manhoef is a beast he was the first guy to ko Mark hunt. Damn he was beating lawler ass. that's the first fight in a long time I seen with lawler back stepping.. sick ads fight. Even though Robbie won he got his ads beat there

Carlos has lost his edge.

I hope he loses, and will continue to root against him for what he did in the Diaz fight. There's never been a more clear cut example of someone afraid in the octagon I never thought I'd see it from him in a million years.

Guy should have his nickname stripped. Natural Born Runner.

Fuck Greg Jackson and every point fighter that trains under him. If Carlos was afraid of Nick Diaz's hands what do you think he's going to think after getting hit by Lawler.

Lawler is going to do the same thing he's been doing forever, hit a dude 30% for the first round and get them comfortable then he's going to start throwing bombs. He does it to everyone, they all think they can trade with him he goads them into it then boom he starts actually throwing and it's game over man.

Lawler second round TKO. I've been telling folks to not sleep on Robbie for sooo long I'm sounding like a broken record.

I'd rather see Rory Vs. Carlos because I honestly think Rory can win, not that he deserves another shot. In fact I would be happy if neither of these guys were even in the UFC anymore.

I've said it before Nick Diaz is coming back for Robbie Lawler rematch inside a year. It's the biggest possible fight the UFC could put on next to GSP x Lawler.

You don't fuck with Lawler. I was sitting there saying "you don't go in that hard against Robbie" and then BOOM.

Edit: then there's the sprawls Robbie was hitting vs. Rory. I don't think anyone is taking Robbie down. That was some shit dude threw his hips like nobodies business.

Manhoef is one of the scariest men on the planet. One kick on an avg. man and I'm pretty sure he'd kill them lol.

Greg Jackson was a shit fighter. There is a great long storied history of shit fighter great trainer. Dominick Cruz needs to shut the fuck up before the words falling out of his mouth fall on his knee and put his crippled ass in wheel chair.

People seem to forget how dominant Cruz was cause he hasent fought in a while, he destroyed mizugaki and I'm sure if he gets a shot at tj will take the belt

3 fights in 4 years will have that effect. Mizugaki isn't a fighter you should be too proud about. He hasn't been dominant in ufc, guy has only had 3 fights. He is a good fighter no question only finished 1/3 fights. That's not what I'd call a dominant fighter.

I also don't think he could take the belt away from TJ. He shouldn't even be considered after all he has only had 3 fights in 4 years. I also believe that he is out injured also.

Yea acl injury again...but I think anyone with a professional mma record of 20-1 can be considered pretty dominant? I take it you didn't watch much WEC?

His record is way better then Cruz's is that impressive? It's not about how many you've won it's about who you have fought and Cruz has a bunch of nobodies on that list. 10 of his 20 don't even have wiki pages. 4-5 of which are still fighting top competition. Talk about a padded record.

that and he schools on people that should have never been in the ring with him

records can be made to make someone look better than they are. Or they are in a mma company that has fighters that are low quality. And no I didn't watch wec, just ufc and pride.

Only when a fight defeats the best in his chosen weight class can he be called dominant, I've seen him fight and he is a good fighter, no doubt. But up against some who is 8-2 and who has been fighting regular and who is confident and hungry. I don't see it, from what I have read about him, the guy is so up himself. I'm not even a TJ fan, I wanted barao to win.

Boxers go 20-0 while not being very good, so it shouldn't be hard for mma fighters

IMO Cruz is faster and more powerful, and tj looks like he try to mimic cruzs fighting style, I guess we'll see how it goes if they fight

Lol, that's how I felt about him before he destroyed Mizugaki.. Since then I've had first class seats on the Cruz train. After TJ's first performance against Barao I became a big fan of his too! Both guys have incredible footwork, stance changes and feints, accurate striking, especially TJ, holy fuck that last fight ending barrage against Barao was unreal, takedowns, grappling, control and decent ground game. I can't wait to see that fight happen!! That'll be one of those fights where I don't want either guy to lose!

Can't wait for jds return end of the year... They better give cigano the next title shot... Jds is a fucking beast. He almost knocked out stipe with a bum knee and when he was kinda rusty. Stipe better not get the title shot over jds.. I'd love to see stipe vs Cain .. I think miocic will maul Cain.. and I don'tthink Cain can beat jjds again.. win lose or draw Cain don't have a lot of fights with jds left. Dude is a monster....
