I was reminded of this great moment, courtesy of Anthony Pettis, and yes, I know this wasn't on a UFC card (it was a WEC card from a year ago), but for those MMA fans that haven't seen this- enjoy.

the 'showtime' kick is old news its all about Marius Zaromski from this weekend. Wasn't quite a clean ko but was stopped shortly after

Rashad Evans vs Phil Davis Headlines UFC on FOX 2 Jan 28th.

Sonnen vs Munoz looks like it's gonna be on that card aswell.

The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale - Live on FX Tonight at 1am.






Main card

Bantamweight: Louis Gaudinot vs. Johnny Bedford
Lightweight: Tony Ferguson vs. Yves Edwards
Bantamweight: T.J. Dillashaw vs. John Dodson
Featherweight: Diego Brandao vs. Dennis Bermudez
Middleweight: Michael Bisping vs. Jason Miller

Good win for Bisping last night, miller was poor though, how can he be that tired after only a round in a five round fight is beyond me, that armbar from brandao was outstanding

Shit...i missed it

Bisping made a good point though, when he said Miller didn't gas out & everyone says anyone Bisping ever beat, simply gassed out.
He said that even pro-runners with great cardio, wouldn't have much gas in the tank after Bisping has beat the shit out of them.

Ok, that's not quite word for word, but it explains Miller's empty gas tank. So does how mayhem was so over excited when he came out and maybe adrenaline dumped too soon.

All we really know is, Mayhem won't make that mistake again. He has at least one more UFC fight to prove he's the real deal.
I'm a fan of Bisping &, despite his loss, a big fan of Mayhem, and want a Mayhem Monky t-shirt

Bisping ought to be challenging for the title soon. I expect (or at least would like to see), the winner of Muneos/Sonnen face Bisping for a number one contender spot.
TBH, sometime in the future, I would LOVE to see a great battle between Nick Diaz & Bisping at a catchweight

it turned out to be a pretty good card over all. did i see a potential champion? maybe. Diego Brandao got clocked a good 1 but within a second he was back and scrambling. his recovery was so swift and brutal, you could see the guy is a hungry, hungry man. the way he transitioned into the arm bar was beautiful, it was in so tight that as soon as he started his roll Bermudez was tapping. a few weeks in camp will hopefully close the hole between his hands so he doesnt take another short shot like the 1 that nearly cost him the win.
jonny bedford is gonna be a handful in his devision i dunno whether he will make it to championship bouts, but he will prove a test for a lot of the guys in his devision.
dodson im not at all sure about. everything about him screams napoleon complex and seems like a very angry man hiding behind a smile. although he finished his fights on the show and the season, i often felt like it was luck rather than skill.
