DREAM was WAY better than UFC.
I have to disagree w/ the Sherk fight. I had him winning for sure.

I missed the UFC event this time 
irked, I was going to spend some time trying to find it online, but from what I read, it won't be worth my time.

Actually, I thought the earlier fights were good.
I was disappointed by Serra's decision to stand and trade punches. BJJ blackbelt anyone? If you don't use it, why do you have it again? Anyway, he lost and rightfully so.
Bader/Nog was boring. Bader looked good though. He looked like he belongs there, which is interesting for only having a few fights in the UFC.
Mir/Crocop.....zzzzzz......zzzzzz....oh wait! umm, yeah. booooooring, then a lucky knee and fight over. Mir has fallen so far from what I thought he was years ago. And Crocop should just hang it up and call it a career. Or go back to Japan and be relevant there.
CB Dolloway was a GREAT fight. Very impressive poise, just hunting for the open neck. He held his position and when the opportunity opened up, they rolled a few times and he cinched in the choke. WELLLLLL done.
Mark Hunt got caught in a kimura from the bottom that I learned my first week when I took BJJ a few years back. Worth every penny (class, not the PPV).
Overall, a C- grade for the PPV. I would have streamed it online, but I couldn't find it. /sadface

pwmin...i gave sherk the first round but dunham i thought won the last 2 rounds.
clay...why are yoiu so surprised that mark hunt lost via kimura?...u should watch some of his fights...he ALWAYS leaves his arms open and loses either kimura or arm bar hehe. 6 of his 7 losses comes from a submission involving his arms lol

the surprising thing is that Hunt still hasn't figured it out
IDK, the last 2 rounds were close and I felt that Sherk got the better of him, but it could have gone either way, I guess. The bad thing is that Sherk kept sticking his neck in guillotine position and Dunham had no reason not to capitalize. That was weak. Even when he tried, he couldn't do it ,but if he would have went for it more (even if he didn't finish), I would have given him more points and the fight.
i didn't see this ufc either and yea, from what i heard it wasn't worth it. My brother told me CC didn't seem like he wanted to trade with Mir. he didn't really ever engage, flinched a lot,....... and would've lost a decision anyways had he not been ko'd.
Bader didn't really do anythiing except for take lil nog down but did nothing with his takedowns except some success in the first rd with some gnp. other than that, he got rocked in the 3rd
heard a lot of people feel Dunham got robbed.
well at least the free prelims were pretty good. i'm dissappointed in hunt, i want them to put him up against a striker and see how that goes. Hunt vs Pat Barry would be awesome.
looking forward to WEC

I only meant that it's sad that he gets caught in BASIC locks and holds.
Is it just me or did the UFC HW division get really boring again, all of a sudden? Lesnar/Cain, winner/Dos Santos, winner/Carwin? I think Dos Santos is gonna get humiliated by whoever he fights (Lesnar).
Oh, I scored the Sherk fight the same Sherk rd 1, Evan Dunham the last 2. I think one of the judges scared it 30-27 Sherk ???? What fight was he watching?

i actually haven't been this excited in the hw div in a while. there's still some great matchups that they can still have
we've yet to see junior go to the ground so don't know how well he'd do against a wrestler yet. we'll see it if he fights cain or lesnar.

sherk is nothing without his roids lol...ever since he was caught using, he hasnt been the same. the bader/little nog could of gone either way. bader just laid on top of him and did nothing(BORING). also any one else thiink ufc 120 card is kinda blah?

I'm ready to get UFC 119 out of my head, although thinking forward to 120 doesn't show much promise over 119. At least we can look back at DREAM 16 for some good fights. Anyway, there are two good cards this thursday to look forward to...BFC 31 and WEC 51. Megumi Fujii
