I'm going to go out on a limb and say meathead will be the first to put Nelson down in the ufc.

He stood toe to toe with Junior dos Santos for 3 rounds. I don't think Mitrione has the power or skill to outclass JDS on the feet and KO Roy.

I'm running on the notion that the accumulative affect of receiving so many headshots in ones career eventually leads to getting KO'd. Its a gamble with Matt but one day Nelson will no longer sustain those shots.

UFC 157 is going to be headlined by Rousey vs Carmouche. The first WMMA fight in the UFC headlines a PPV. That's massive. The choice of opponent is pretty weak, nobody knew who Carmouche was when she fought Marloes Coenen and that situation still stands. They really should've brought in Marloes Coenen to fight Rousey. Other reasonable choices would be Alexis Davis, Shayna Baszler, Sarah McMann, Cat Zingano or Amanda Nunes, but they all suffer from the same problem as Carmouche: almost nobody has ever heard of them. Coenen's name still holds some value. Still, this is only a practice fight for Rousey vs Cyborg on a brazilian PPV card.

^^ Carmouche got the fight because she was the only one actively pushing for it in Social Media, and got what she asked for, the rest of the ladies just stood by while Carmouche talked her way into a historical fight for the UFC, but yrs she's s till a few fights from being a title contender, but she does have potential down the road

Contrasting with an absolutely terrible season, the TUF 16 Finale was AWESOME. Great fights, tons of finishes and free. What's not to like?

The UFC on FX 6 card (the TUF Australia vs UK finals), not so much. The TUF guys sucked badly, Pearson did his thing and Lombard got a gift win because Paul Harris was too dumb to take him down and fought a flat footed stand up battle. Put Lombard against Mu?oz and watch him squirm.

Did anybody see the Invicta FC event last night? Veronica Rothenhausler should seriously drop to 135 and eventually fight Sarah Kaufman. The girl can seriously crack.

UFC on FX 7 is tomorrow and it's on free TV. Bisping vs Belfort is the marquee fight. If Bisping wins, he gets a title shot at Anderson Silva.

MMA fighter & TNA Wrestling star King Mo was victorious in his first Bellator MMA fight on Thursday night on Spike TV, which aired after Impact. In the quarter finals of the Bellator Light Heavyweight tournament, Mo defeated Przemyslaw Mysiala via knockout in 3:52 of the first round.

Mo looked rusty early on after being out of the cage for a full year, but found his rhythm and delivered a one-punch knockout Mysiala to advance in the tournament.

During the post-fight interview, Mo said he didn't have much of a strategy going in and he just wanted to knock the guy out.

Mo will fight Emmanuel Newton next in the semi-finals on February 21st from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Don't forget, UFC on FOX 6 is tomorrow. Dodson vs Mighty Mouse. If Dodson doesn't land flush, he's going to get danced around for 5 rounds until the inevitable 50-45.

Rampage sounds like he's kinda done

He was already done a while ago. But this fight sealed the deal. He looked like crap and he completely checked out in the 3rd round. Still, Bellator will probably send an offer his way to fight King Mo after he steamrolls the LHW tournament.

Pettis looked like a straight up beast. UFC 156 is coming up this weekend. I'll get the info ready.

Rousey vs Carmouche is tonight. Make sure not to miss it. Not only it's an historic main event, the undercard is completely stacked.
