It always amazes me that I can watch a fight as it happens, step away to clear my head, come back to watch the fight a second time, and then still not see what some other people see.
Obviously personal tastes can skew things, but here’s what I saw…

Lots of people are making predictions about the winner of Brock Vs Carwin. I felt they had that pretty well covered, so I thought I’d take a minute to predict the outcome of the eventual fight outcome.
Quick “spoiler alert” for those that still haven’t seen the fights or read the results or looked at the updated rankings…
Wouldn’t it be nice to have an event where after it’s done we just talk about wins and losses? Here it is the day after the ultimate fighter finale and at best the winner of the season is the number three story. Seems kind of silly to me, so I’m going to start off talking about the winner…
There is a situation brewing that I think is semi-interesting (slash) semi-retarded. I’m going to layout what I know, speculate on what I suspect, and then hopefully have someone set me straight…
The Couture Vs Vera event is now just a few hours away, so I figured I’d throw some words up here in case anyone wanted some help passing the time until the event started. I’ll take a look at a few of the main fights, chit chat about the fighters’ histories and try not to sing…
A lot of the talk in recent days has centered around Fedor and Rogers (which is understandable), but let us not forget that there were a lot of other great fighters on the card. I’d like to take a more in-depth look at several of the fighters on the card and see where they might go from here…
In the last week or so I’ve sat down several times to try to talk about something (anything!) other than Shogun Vs Machida. Sadly, the voices in my head aren’t getting any quieter and I’m really starting to get behind on other things. In an attempt to appease the voices and hopefully purge this whole thing from my mind I’m going to just rant away. Some of this is old news, some might not be. Either way, I hope that after this at least I will be able to leave it all behind…
I should probably add “to me” at the end of the title. There is no doubt many are disappointed with Kimbo as following this week’s TUF episode I saw a whole new round of Kimbo hate start to circulate. I am far from a Kimbo Slice nuthugger, but I am left a little confused at this point by some of the Kimbo Slice hate going around. There is no doubt Kimbo’s performance wasn’t amazing, but was there any real reason to expect it to be?
Make no mistake about it, I am very disappointed. I’m disappointed with some promoters, I’m disappointed with some sites and I’m really disappointed with some “fans”. Overall though, I really don’t see a reason to be disappointed by Kimbo.
Instead of just blindly bashing on Kimbo I’d like to take an honest look at his career thus far and see why Kimbo Slice is overrated.
The Strikeforce card is in the books, and the site is finally updated(a few days late, sorry I’m so slow!). I’m going to discuss a few things from the card and respond to random things from around the web.
