I hope Melendez does the business tonight. I'd like Mir to win but I think he is going off the boil a bit and could be caught tonight

Not seen a lot of Cormier, but i noticed that the bookies have him as a fairly comfortable favourite. Tempted to throw a few euro on Mir.

Looks like Brown had three weetabix this morning instead of two. He's like a man possessed.

Wrongway1985

Mir looks the best he done in awhile hard to say if his performance will be similar, if he puts in one of his lazy ones he could be out the door

super stuff by brown
such a tough sob
delighted for him

11 euro on Matt brown at 13/5, what a warrior

Fight and KO of the night are looking like they'll be a difficult decision. I'm usually complaining about ad breaks on a fox show. . .no complaints here!

I lost every bet so far on this card ha. Gutted bout the Lorenz Larkin decision. I have Diaz, Mir and Melendez to win. I am a big under dog fan.

My brother is a huge Matt Brown fan and when we saw them odds I just couldn't resist. He is really putting in some superb performances

it was a big price in fairness for such a tough lad
love to see him winning and cant wait to see who
he gets next

thomson my only bet tonite
fairly confident if im being honest
no way should diaz be so short

melendez a nice price also

Mr Blobby

Davei141

Very impressive from Thomson

Mr Blobby

Nice

Cool victory for Thompson

whoa, most entertaining card I've seen in a long time, I've never been more happy to be injured and not able to play on a Sunday morning!

ref was stopping it before it came in, so even if it was it probably wouldn't count

Possibly the best card ever on paper and its living up to it. Pretty incredible stuff so far. Interested to see where this puts Thomson into the LW mix

I've seen at least one before. I think it might have been Penn/GSP.

Wrongway1985

So Daniel to prove he has a shot at heavyweight?

Didn't Penn quit in his corner?

Davei141

Its 3-3 in Strikeforce vs UFC tonight

Yeah he was, but I think his brother threw in the towel between rounds. It certainly wasn't thrown in mid-fight. Don't hold me to it though, that fight must have been five or six years ago.

Wrongway1985

Small triple on Dillashaw,Thompson & Mir so here could be where paddy gets my money

Lenin Skynard

All that fat is doing Mir no favours. It's weird how he stays in this shape, he was much better when he was thinner.

And he just punched himself in the face at around 00:60 of the first.

It's probably the leanest he has been since he bulked up after Lesnar. Maybe it's age I don't know. He's awful fat compared to when he was interim champ.

Were those fans actually booing at the end? Uneducated fcukin rednecks

Mir should really be 240, hes doing himself no favours at all bumbling around the cage slow as hell at 257

They were booing the whole fight during clinches

I thought there was one point where comier seemed to break off the clinch because of the boos.

Comier really seemed to tire for the final round

Herb was very quick to separate the clinches too, i assume for the same reason

I booed in my head im sure thats ok, but Mir didnt have it at all Daniel really good at gettin up close reminds me of Velasquez who a lot of people also think should be at 205

I thought so too, there were times he told them to work, then didnt give them a chance to do anything before breaking it up

Melendez' round I think. Not by a big margin though.
