You didn't see the whole card.

And give reasons why Horn/Palhares, Lytle/Davis and Henderson/Franklin sucked?

^ all the other fights except the one prelim they replayed and coleman shogun were good.

That prelim between the two kids.. with the 0-0 records.. one was 20 one was 21... was disgraceful.. they are NOT ready for the UFC.

it was like watching two rabid squirrels battle to the death during a panic attack.

Shogun used to be my favorite fighter, his GP run was awe-inspiring. Since the injury in the first Coleman fight he's lost something, and now he seems like a shell of his former self. The rule changes certainly haven't benefited him either, that electricity that characterized every one of his fights is no longer there.

I thought Franklin edged him, but I think Hendo will make a better coach.

So long as Hendo doesn't tell any of his guys to take a knee as soon as the fight starts then he should be fine.

YUHHHHHHH!
