I'd like to see a rematch also. Would eliminate the thought of a Matt Serra vs. GSP scenerio..........

[Starscream]

Dana White scripted this match. He wrote the finish for Lesnar to win. If you want to truly watch a REAL fight, head over to the WWE and watch any match they have. TNA too, for that matter. Don't know what all the hoopla is over a scripted UFC card.








I like cake.

Don't you have some Lusi's to cut in half or something?

Not scripted. Never though it was or ever will be. GSP got caught in the first fight, but proved it was just that, Got caught

IMO Lesnar caught Courure with an illegal blow, behind the ear, which is considered by some to be the back of the head.

Therefore the fight should have been ruled a no contest.

And I'm not bitter!!!

sigh

The Bocek vs Alvinson fight was a good one though. Real BBJ tactician match.

Fight of the night IMO.

The next BIG thing!

Ken-Flo was awesome too!

I'll take your bait.

If Dana could script UFC fights, Chuck would never lose.

Gurgel vs Riley did not deserve fight of the night. It was a good enough match, but their striking was not nearly as good as the submission attempts being worked in the Bocek vs Robinson fight.

Time for another drink.

UFC (not scripted) is sport
WWE (scripted) is an art form

This was meant as a joke, guys!
I like UFC, but I love some WWE (or any type of pro wrestling).

It's not. Just poking fun, as the new Heavyweight champ is a former champ of an organization which does have scripted fights.

True dat. On both accounts.

The object lesson of the night last night...don't give your back to a BJJ black belt...it doesn't end well for you!

I've never seen that many submissions on one card, and the Hazlett sub...OMG, that was sick!

Dana needs to deal with business like a grown up, some of this stuff is getting ridiculous. I don't know why these guys keep taking this stuff to the press...I would expect the crap coming from Dana to come from an athlete, if you look at other major sports the 'organization' in general doesn't come out and attack players like this. I know Dana has done a lot for the UFC, but he has to stop taking this stuff personally, it makes him look retarded.

Pretty good fights.

Umm, what was with the Quarry Maia after fight kiss. Either they are dating or that was very strange.

Hazelett & Florian looked good in their fights. Just don't like Gonzaga, he got fed a can now he wants to look for a title. I say let Couture school him again.

IMO Lesnar caught Courure with an illegal blow,

Not an illegal hit at all.

I wouldn't say it was an illegal hit because I really didn't see it that way from the angles I saw.

I will say that Randy got caught. I didn't think Brock dominated Randy up to the point that he caught him.

Like I said, I'd love to see a rematch. Randy was doing great and I have that "what if" in the back of my mind like I did and the end of the Serra vs. GSP fight

I know it wasn't really an illegal strike, but I'm caught up on wishful thinking.

I don't think he really deserved a title shot yet, I guess if he didn't deserve it he shouldn't have won. It will be interesting to see how he makes out against the winner of Mir vs Nog.

There were lots of great fights last night and we got to see them all.

I agree the shot wasn't illegal.

I disagree that Randy wasn't getting dominated. All Randy could do with Brock was be on his back for most of the first round after getting taken down by Brock. And Randy was an alternate for the Olympics in Greco Roman Wrestling, which shows Brock ability to take down Olympic caliber wrestlers and put them on their back. Other than that all Randy did to Brock was try to hold him against the fence.

I like Randy and think he is a class act. But maybe now people will start to realize just because Brock chose to make a **** load of money in Pro Wrestling in no way mean he isn't a legitimate fighter. Mir better hope he doesn't beat Nog and have to have a rematch against Brock cause I don't see Brock leaving his leg out their for him next time like he did in their first fight, which was only because the ref stood them up after claiming Brock hit Mir in the back of the head when it was Mir who turned his head as the punch was being throw. Up til the point the ref interfered Mir was get his ass handed to him by Brock and was second from the fight being stopped.. Brock trains like an animal and I just don't see Brock getting caught in another leg sub by Mir. Mir also tried to get arm subs on Brock and Brock was just too powerful for Mir to land them. Now Nog / Lesnar would be interesting if Nog doesn't get caught with one of those size 4X canned hams of a hands Brock has and Nog has been proven he can be knocked down. Not sure he could take Brock power either. Looking forward to wither one of these guys fighting Brock.

As far as people saying Brock isn't legit and doesn't deserve a title shot, do you think so now? Bottom line is Brock puts asses in the seats and makes PPV buyrates soar. And in the grand scheme of things this is a business and in business money is the bottom line like it or not.
