Cyborg looked every bit the beast she was supposed to be. Thought Leslie Smith would've taken it to a decision as she's a tough bitch but it was what it was.

 

Souza and Werdum by submission in the final two for me.

I'm gonna gee up on that whole prediction game.

 

I know Miocic beat a hometown boy but I was saying to friends tonight that betting £10+ on every 'home' fighter must be a profitable venture. Everywhere the UFC goes the home fighters seem to win.

Short hook moving backwards into an onrushing opponent, always a delightful ko method.

Overeem is a completely different prospect to face on the feet, fascinating matchup. Reckon a fit Cain wrecks both tho. Werdum v Fedor II in the Autumn, make it happen.

Lovely to see roidmerchant Vitor getting smashed. Cyborg surely has some mixgender shit going on if it's not roids, was like man v woman in there.

She's Brazilian. The roids are happening.

As soon as you saw deflated Vitor show up at the weigh ins next to a frankly huge Jacare you know how it was going to play out. TRT Vitor was great fun but his times passed. Nogueira and Shogun winning was bad as it will no doubt delay their overdue retirements.

Shogun didn't even win that fight. Bad times when you need a home town decision to beat the likes of Corey Anderson.

Agreed. Was a stinker of a fight also. Outside of Thomas Almeida I can't think of many interesting Brazilian fighters coming through. Dunno if that's due to the UFC being more focused on signing up non grapplers or just that they're being left behind by the yanks.

They're nothing without being on the gear. Name one Brazilian UFC fighter who looks or fights the same since USADA came in.

RDA.

 

Coincidentally, now the only Brazillian to still hold a belt in the UFC.
