GSP was so dominate, it was boring. I loved seeing Mir get knocked out even though I kinda wanted him to win so Lesnar could take him to the woodshed, again.

GSP fights are becoming more and more boring. He hasn't finished his last three fights. I was impressed at how tough Hardy is. I personally think anybody who gets to fight GSP, should have to go through Fitch or Kos. I think that will eliminate the guys who can't stop a takedown. Its going to take a special fighter to beat GSP. Somebody with KO power and that can withstand that onslaught of takedowns.

Carwin's power is insane. Those short uppercuts absolutely destroyed Mir. It made me happy.

But how do they list Carwin at 6'5'' and Mir at 6'3'' When Mir looked taller?

Jon Fitch was flat out dominant. Easily the 2nd best WW in the world.

Phallares should never be allowed to fight in the UFC again. That was an utter disgrace.

It wasn't so much boring for me but Hardy was just WAY out of his league. However, big props for not tapping the 3-4 times GSP was about to snap his damn arm. I was literally amazed during those times.

Total domination by GSP. I didn't think he'd get the KO over Hardy by any stretch but he looked utterly bewildered when he couldn't submit him.

Yeh, I think Hardy definitely earned some respect from that fight, although he was greatly overmatched by GSP.

Although GSP definitely looked bewildered when Hardy did not tap. It was like he was looking over to his corner to ask what he was doing wrong. That definitely made me cringe more than once.

Can't wait for UFC 112.

Because they're liars. They also claimed more than once all of his victories were by knockout. Which is incredibly untrue.

Yeah, Mir is about 6'3" and Carwin is 6'1". All of Carwin's wins in the UFC are KO's and, of course, if it didn't happen in the UFC it don't count.

5 of his 12 wins have been by submission.
