shouldnt of gone with Hector....i thought Forrest was gonna come in trying to prove something and try for the KO,but i was wrong,and he just picked Hector apart from the outside
Ed Herman really impressed me alot this fight,he really looks alot stronger,and better on his feet....really wanna see the rematch with Kendall now

Very bad event, and Yushin could have done way better against a guy like Franklin, dont know why he held back so much I saw so many holes in Rich's game.
Dude - may i ask why you had your whole $1500ish bankroll on Scott Smith? I wanted him to win but he never going too IMHO
I was robbed just like Clay was!!!!!!!! Should of won $430 and got a perfect pick!!!!!!!!!! 
Come on people cheer me up by giving me props for making the ACTUAL correct pick and clever wagers

Only two losses: Guida (robbed) and Singer (sloppy).
Lost some bucks, but nothing too bad thanks to Franklin.

What did you guys think of Yushin IMO he was way to passive, i know he usually is a passive fighter but he didnt even really do or really try anything in the first and second round. You have to credit Franklin for not letting Yushin do anything in the first and second but IMO i think that Yushin could have pressured Franklin more in the first two rounds. In the third he did really good but it just wasnt enough but i have to give it to Franklin for not tapping to that Kimura that was crazy.

Good night of fights overall. Ed herman, even though i bet against him showed great character and gave the fans an impressive performance, it must be something to do with his new hair cut and tattoo's, excellent fight for ed, look forward to his next fight.
Even singer looked okay in round one against jason mcdonald all before round two when mcdonald got the mount and ended the fight with an impressive tko.
Griffin looked excellent, the smartest and most strategic fight he's been in.
Although he didn't get the tko, he done well, and ramirez done a good job in taking griffin to the score cards. Overall a fairly good job in entertaining the fans. Both fighters will be better and more prepared for their next fights !!!
Franklin with the exception of a locked out kimura in the 3rd got the unanimous decision over okami, though this fight was really slow with both fighters showing too much respect, picking shots and leg kicks, no one really wanting to comit.
I had franklin down for round 1, round 2 i couldnt call, thought okami landed enough jabs and kicks to take it, though eddie bravo scored a 10-9 to franklin,
then okami's ground skills earnt him the 3rd, with a unan dec to the winner rich franklin, look out silva !!!
Fight of the night for me, was Clay Guida vs tyson griffin, Very entertaining with both guys pressing the action through 3 solid rounds. Tyson definately won round one for his takedown defense (awesome) and keeping the distance on his opponant. Round two i gave to Guida pressuring tyson, landing good shots throught the whole round and really begginig to turn up the pace on griffin, finishing the round with a sick knee bar that was tight. Round 3 i gave to guida for his relentless takedown attempts, one got in and he controlled the amazing wrestler on his back for a little bit. Tyson became the counter striker in rounds two and three, and with the 3rd going to the ground for the last few minutes of the fight tyson was controlled, thats what lost him the fight, for me. Guida should have won a unan dec for clearly winning rounds 2 and 3 !!! Very entertaining fight, fight of the night for me, guida was robbed !!!!!

I cannot tell you the amount of happiness that coarsed through these canucklehead veins when MacDonald def. Rory Singer.
Talk about disrespect! Rory has a decent amount of fighting/training experience so I do not understand all the cheap .02c low-blows!?
Anyway...SCOREBOARD!!!!
I trully hope that Dana,the rest of UFC selection commitee + MacDonald's record will give him a chance at 1 or 2 fights away to fight for a belt. I may be a little biased, but you have to admit that J-M's style is polished and exciting and deserves a shot...eh?
peace,mikey
