It certainly would have seemed like less of a screwjob for Dunham if they stopped it because of the cut rather than giving Sherk the decision after what we saw.

Let's call it, "The Abyss", shall we Picasso?

Seconded. The nausea-inducing abyss.

Quick Comments on UFC 119:
Least Impressive in Victory: Frank Mir
How is it that, with all the work he's done on his wrestling, Mir couldn't get Cro Cop to the mat after two and a half rounds of trying? I realize much of his work has probably been on defending takedowns, since that seems like the only way he'll have any hope of ever reclaiming the UFC heavyweight title, but still. Mir spent all night pressing Cro Cop into the fence and waiting for Herb Dean to split them up. If he thinks that's the kind of performance that will send him rocketing up the ranks, he's kidding himself. The knockout at the end almost saved the fight, but coming as it did in the final minute, it just felt like a good scene that comes at the end of a very long and very boring movie. By that point so many people have walked out or fallen asleep, it hardly matters.



Dana White compares Mir's heart to that of the Grinch (i.e. non-existant):

Like when Sonnen was beating Silvas ASS, and got caught with the Triangle choke

Dana can really be a Prick some times!!! =O

nah .. different .. at least both sonnen and silva were fighting ... these two guys were doing nothing for the whole fight ... i am sure dana would have said the same thing if anderson submitted leites or maia in the last minute ..

I don't know...do you really think he would have threatened to fire Silva if he finished those fights?

For the record...Dana hinted that he may cut Mir because of Saturday.

I enjoyed Bader/Minotouro. I thought it was a pretty good fight.

anderson is a champ ... if he finished those guys right at the end of a boring fight, i think he would have definitely called him out ...

i don't think dana is gonna cut mir .. i also didn't think he'd cut anderson if he gave another performance like maia/leites ...

yeah ... too bad lil nog is done .. he lost that fight to brilz and now bader ... i like bader, but his bubble is about to burst if he gets lined up against bones jones ..

But he won against Brilz? Bader seems to get worn out really quickly. His fights are still fun though.
