    Bad night for refs though. I never seen a ref stand someone up when he had a full mount. I still think Lashley would have gassed and lost in the third round anyways. He had no idea how to finish when he had a full mount.

    You're right, Feijao is a midet and can't go up over 205. :rolleyes:

    Yeah... He only has to gain 60 to 90 some odd pounds to catch Lesnar but I'm sure he can do that in no time. :rolleyes:

    Feijao got slammed a couple times by a much smaller/weaker King Mo. Lesnar would destroy Feijao. End of story.

    LMAO, I dont mean to pill it on, but that statement is ridiculous, I will assume you are new fan of mma. Feijao would be lucky to last 3 rds and go to a decision loss with the top 8 or so lhw in UFC, much less pull of a victory. I wouldnt be surprised if Feijao lost to Matt Hammil. I would take the top 3-5 middleweights in UFC over him as well.

    I will not even address the HW division, that statement is just asinine, the fight you are referencing was between LHW.

    yeah, people were saying the same stuff before the last fight of Fedor.

    I felt the only two guys out there last night that were UFC able fighters were KJ NOONS and the Brazilian who fought Kennedy. KJ looks like he could make some noise in the UFC. The Brazilian had some lighting quick hands.

    strikeforce has been around a long time. they don't have ridiculous expenses and they make money at their shows. please explain how coker is clueless. if anything the guy knows his role and always looks to keep the organization afloat. he isn't like elitexc that spent millions developing a freaking social networking site and he isn't a scumbag promoter either.

    Give King MO some more time and he'll get there.

    Def. agree w/ you on KJ. I hope the Houston fans showed the hometown boy some love last night cos he's going to make it.

    A lot of his matchmaking decisions don't make a lot of sense. He gives Rogers a title shot after a loss to Fedor, and now he is stated that Fedor could get the next title shot at Overeem even though he just lost to Werdum. Overeem doesn't defend his title for who knows how long. He let Shields' contract expire and spent money signing and promoting Hendersen. Of course Hendo goes on to lose to Shields and now their MW champion is on his way to the UFC. He basically just allowed Cung Le to hold on to his MW championship for 18 months to shoot movies.

    I agree that he isn't a scumbag promoter but the promotion just comes off as really low class. When I saw some of the numbers in the past, they didn't take in a lot at the gate but they pay their fighters a lot. I don't see CBS doing business with them much longer and I wouldn't be surprised to see SF go out of business eventually.
