I love when a guy is getting clearly being defeated by a striker and pulls off some submission out of no where ala Josh Neer.

I like both Ground wars and straight up Brawls it showcases both sides of the game. And to say anyone can go out there and swing leather and expect to have a chance is stretching the term Punchers chance just a bit. As ive said before i like to see the fight go some rounds before a KO. As impressive as first round KO’s are they leave ya wanting more. Some just like seeing the ground game more and some like the striking. MMA type Striking that ya dont see in Boxing. Ive watched boxing many many times and it is no where near as exciting as MMA when two fighters go toe 2 toe. But like i said i also like to see a sick BJJ game or Sub clinic.

I don’t know what you are thinking but anyone can land a lucky knockout shot in this sport. Everyone trains on stand up, so is that improbable to have knock outs? I am personally more impressed by fighter that have to earn it, not just walk out there and trade leather until you get that lucky shot. Everyone in mma gets caught eventually with the KO. And by the way Drew Mcfedries was my high school running back and team mate.

LegalEagle: calm down.

Anyone who gets in the Octagon (Anthony Johnson in this case) and puts on that kind of show deserves immediate cred. Just because he lacks experience doesn’t change that he is an animal. Perhaps GSP or Kos are the only two that could even physically compare. It doesn’t take experience or lots of tough fights to realize that. On paper this was supposed to be a tough fight. Reiner went three rounds with Josh Burkman. Didn’t last 20 seconds with this guy.

Here is some advice for you. Quit thinking in terms of hierarchy/experience and open your eyes. Huerta is a great fighter. Johnson is a great fighter. Gonzaga beat Crocop with dismal odds concerning experience and MMA cred.

As far as Fitch goes, yes he could get lucky. Matt Serra did. And he’ll lose his belt shortly.

I thought Fitch was cooked when he got stuck in the Anaconda. That was a great performance. He escaped his opponents signature move, twice. A great night of fights capped off by a nice toe to toe brawl. Stout seemed like he couldn’t keep enough distance to launch his kicks. Spencer kept closing the gap. I agree with you Frizz, Fisher versus Kenny Florian would be a great matchup. A lot of quality fighters last night except that guy that got knocked out by Mcfedries. He had nothing. Tavares impressed me the most. I’m glad “the Barncat” had a decisive submission on Spratt.

I totally agree that Koscheck or Hughes would be a tough test for Fitch, but don’t expect to see the KOS fight anytime soon since they are training partners and have stated that they will not be fighting each other anytime soon. For Fitch, I’d love to see him fight Karo next, then Hughes, and then GSP for the belt (since GSP will be champ again by then!). Also, I think you’re completely crazy for stating that Fitch has hit his “UFC success peak.” The guy has stopped everybody who Joe Silva has put in front of him so far (6-0 UFC), so you can’t go counting him out just yet. Sure, his upcoming fights should get a lot tougher for him, but there is no reason to believe that he can’t keep the winning streak alive…he’s currently on a 13 pro fight winning streak.

Tavares is bad news for Huerta/Franca/Sherk.

Yes, it is just you. A nice quick KO against a non contender doesn’t make you a beast. Check his other fights out first before you make a judgement.

Tavares is tough for Franca and Sherk. But what is Huerta’s name doing in there? You are falling for the Dana hype machine.

Fitch could beat anyone except maybe the top two or so WW. He could take out Kos, Hughes on a bad day, and maybe another one or two. I think GSP is too much for him.

What a fight night! They were all good. Althought I picked Stout to win Fisher took it to him. Stout has a chin, you gotta give him that, he took some shots that would have dropped most guys. Fisher was relentless, once Stout started backing up it was all over. Fight Nights are something to look forward to for sure. DAMN- GET EM BOYS!

Is it just me or does Anthony Johnson seem like an unstoppable beast??? Good Lord he looked incredible. Had McFedries not KO’d his guy in such a fashion I think Johnson would have been the talk of the night.

Tavares is bad news for Huerta/Franca/Sherk.

Tavares and Johnson will either be future contenders or champions by mid 08′.
