    Barncat is a heel-hook master. The best leg control I've ever seen, with numerous tournament taps at the highest levels. You would hafta check with him, but I assume he would do a heel-hook seminar if there was enough interest....

    Thank you guys! I'm super happy that Jake won. Demian is very good and it's a big victory for Jake. It was a very technical match and I defiantly think that Jake proved that without a doubt he is one of the top Jiu Jitsu/ grapplers in the MMA.

    Looked to me like Pierce was trying to avoid the grappling. Palhares was just bulldozing into the clinch.

    Yeah I was a fan, but now I'm just tired of his antics. Even Nog looked a little embarrassed when they cut the camera to him during the post fight interview. I can't figure if he's just actually retarded, or intentionally retarded.

It is a fight and if Paulhares wanted to send a message to the other fighters: Don't take me lightly.
    Nah Mike wasn't looking past him at all. He was saying truth. He called him a dirty fighter. He is a dirty fighter as he exhibited. Palhares did exactly what Pierce said he does.

    A lot of talent on this card, though I don't feel it lived up to the potential.

    A lot of bad decisions.

    I gave TJ Dillashaw the decision over Assuncao.

    I scored 4 rounds for Maia.

    I fast forwarded through the Maldonado/Beltran match.

    I still can't get over how fat Thiago Silva looked.

    On the positive side:

    I most enjoyed watching Yan Cabral's match.

    The Chris Cariaso and Santos fight was getting good, but was possible stopped too early.

    A few good knockouts: Don Hyun Kim & Alan Patrick

    And Toquinho, he is who we think he is.
    Using the same entry to the same submission.
    Holding on way too long, time after time.
