174 in the books. It just seemed a little flat... Mighty Mouse - lb/lb fighter?

It was a pretty dull show wasn't it. I think Johnson has to be right up there in the lb/lb discussion, his technique is almost flawless

Rory Mcdonald was superb, perfect gameplan and execution of it to beat Woodley

[davey68]

Really impressed with Rory. Woodley looked like a beast in previous fights but Rory handled him with a smart gameplan and good technique. Thought Ali would give mighty mouse a good fight but it wasnt really close.

The best rubber guard known to man.

Jon "no bones" Jones.

TTTHS had been getting poor of late. Glad he's back on form.

Decent card last night, two good main events, one over in seconds (literally) and a point proved in both of them

Surprised to see Urijah Faber on the prelims though, considering his last fight was for the belt and was a bad stoppage

[g4ry13]

The card was decent but the fights were poor.

I was disappointed to see Struve fight cancelled. Women's MMA is just poor. Machida is past it and I think Weidman was kind of average.

I was also very surprised Faber was a prelim fight against such a bum, he must have pissed Dana off or something.

[Don1]

I was 'meh' for it, but Hall showed the balls I didn't think he had. Tough dude. Why was Struve cancelled?

[g4ry13]

Apparently he blacked out in the locker room before the fight. I was really looking forward to that one.

[Don1]

Hopefully not more heart trouble.

[g4ry13]

"Stefan Struve blacked out in the locker room," UFC President Dana White tweeted from the official SportsCenter account. "He has elevated heart rate and is out of the fight. I'd never risk his health.

"His heart rate was up, and he blacked out," White subsequently told MMAFighting.com. "They think it was a panic attack, but didn't want to take any chances."

White added that Struve was hyperventilating.

[Don1]

Poor bloke.

[g4ry13]

Worse for Mitrione, must be bad to get all pumped up for the fight and then have it cancelled last minute. Hopefully it's rescheduled for very soon.

[Don1]

Not sure I'd agree, but I do feel sorry for the pair. Struve more than Mitrione, as Struve has been through a hell of a lot last year. But it's not good for either.

On a separate note.... Rowsey looked very convincing.

Her stand up sucked when she started in the UFC, she didn't look like she liked getting hit. Unfortunately for her opponents she's got much better at standup now.

What was BJ up to though? he was walking around like the front of a pantomime horse in the octagon.

Both the ultimate fighter finale's were over real quick, both very one sided.

[Don1]

Agreed on all counts. BJ really needs to hang them up. Please.

I thought he confirmed it when speaking after? I was expecting a lot more from him I must admit

[Don1]

I saw HErb wave it off an deleted it off the box. Has he hung them up then? Good. Thank you for the memories BJ. Enjoy your down-time.
