I agree with all those picks, except I think Maia might just edge out Fitch.

XiP 02-03-2013 08:28 AM

all that overeem hype down the drain :(

SPOHN 02-03-2013 09:47 AM

^ yep as I thought it would

b1adesofcha0s 02-04-2013 02:51 AM

That's what Overeem gets for being an overconfident douche. He could have easily won that fight if he had respected his opponents. Who does he think he is, Anderson Silva? :icon17:

This completely scrambles up the title picture at HW. Overeem is out as a potential match up and Silva's last fight was a complete beatdown by Velasquez. Mir and Cormier are already scheduled to fight, but maybe the winner of that one will get the next shot. Werdum and Carwin are the only other possibilities I can think of.

Evans was a huge disappointment against Little Nog. I was excited to see him maybe drop down and take on Silva, but he would get killed fighting like this. Looks like it will end up being Silva vs Weidman at MW.

No surprise with Aldo winning, though I was hoping he would finish Edgar.

I think the Aldo fight was very close. I think he was lucky he pulled out the win. If he had not done so much visible damage, it could have been a different ending

Agreed. I had it Aldo 48-47 and I have no clue how those 2 judges scored it 49-46. I think he should have stuck with the leg kicks. He mentioned that Edgar was telegraphing them after a while and going for a takedown, but he could have gone after the other leg too instead of just the same one each time.

Seeing Overeem get KO'd was awesome. I didn't think Silva would outstrike him standing up but he proved a point to Reem to quit talking so much crap about him and actually fight.

I do not know what Evans was trying to do in this fight. He reminded me of Rampage instead of working and going to what you do best....which is wrestle. But he wanted to stand and bang with Little Nog? I guess his KO from Lyoto taught him nothing.

I really wished Aldo finished Edgar. I was getting worried he was letting him hang around and even though his face was destroyed he doesn't ever quit. He was tearing Edgar up with those brutal leg kicks in the first couple rounds. Pettis will be an exciting matchup vs Aldo.

Finally Dana needs to give Weidman his shot.

b1adesofcha0s 02-04-2013 09:51 AM

Fvck Weidman, he hasn't earned sh1t. Vitor deserves another shot before Weidman IMO.

speedfreek 02-04-2013 10:01 AM

I agree Belfort deserves another shot. I don't think it will go down the same way. But until Dana changes his tune on it it isn't going to happen anytime soon.

But in the division Weidman is the best prospect although I would like to see him fight at least one more fight before getting in the Thunderdome with Silva. Especially after coming off a surgery. I say throw Weidman in there with Belfort for a #1 contenders match. Sink or swim.

b1adesofcha0s 02-04-2013 10:05 AM

Agreed, I want to see Belfort vs Weidman. No one has a better shot to beat Silva than Belfort. He just got caught with a perfect kick in the first fight. I think we could possibly see Belfort vs Sonnen in the future though.

I thought it was funny to see Fitch get "Fitched" by Maia.

b1adesofcha0s 02-04-2013 12:22 PM

Looks like Pettis might be dropping down to 145 to take on Aldo.
