    Glad I didn't order this PPV. Been pretty boring so far. Jon jones really ruined it for me.

    You could tell Cormier likes silva and is taking it easy on him for fighting on such short notice.

    Which happens first, the take down or the stand up knockout, that'll determine who wins. If Brock Lesnar gets a takedown, it's over, if Hunt lands a solid strike, it's over.

    Fake wrestling, being big and strong but clueless even when he overpowers someone.

    No....real wrestling. If you don't know that wrestling is one of the top MMA disciplines then you probably don't watch much MMA and that would explain your "interesting" opinion on the subject.

    Agree with Bobby, Lesnar is a good wrestler, not a good puncher.

    Meh, it was pretty bland. I knew it was going the distance. I guess Orton is going to win at Summer Slam now.

    Hunt had a chance to KO Brock in the 2nd round.

    He was not aggressive against a very rusty Lesnar.

    Man, worst outcome in any MMA fight is takedown and lay on the man, who wants that?

    Perhaps you should stick to boxing and kickboxing then. Those sound like more your speed.

    Exactly, it's proven you pressure Brock with your standup and he will turtle up, big big strong man who doesn't like to get hit and handles it very poorly. His advantage is not many will do it because they know he can take you down and it is very tough to get him off you once he's on top of you.

    However, he does very little damage on top. It make him dangerous in a win/lose standpoint because virtually the only way there will be a position change once he's on you is a ref stand up because he's so big and strong.
