Holy that was awful...
What on paper maybe should have been the best fight of 2013 was easily one of the worst..

4-0 since I didn't realize that Lawler was fighting someone different.
Your insights are staggering.
Says the guy who didn't even know the fight card.
Great
So update the picks dip ..
I re-watched Rory/Jake what a crap fest..
How is it that Jake with 34 fights total had no answer to someone jabbing him on the outside preventing him from loading up with power shots? I was amazed at his lack of footwork and head movement to get closer to Rory.. The few times he got close enough he did hit Rory.. But He never established his own jab. He basically stood outside and occasionally leaped in with a lead hook or right hand. He should look at that tape and just cry..
To be expected..

Everyone is bagging Rory, but what kind of ability must you possess to do something like that to a fighter like Jake? It's almost worse than pounding someone to a pulp. He broke Jake's spirit and made him actually *afraid* to open up and try anything.
If that was Anderson Silva in Rory's place last night, everyone would have been lauding what a genius strategy it was, and talking about how he can dominate opponents without even engaging them.
Midget fight
Agree, just put yourself in the fighters shoes, if you were Rory and dominating with the jab why change it up and put yourself at risk (don't fix what ain't broken). Force your opponent to make an adjustment/take that risk.
Almost everybody went perfect on predictions
I liked this card. Few really nice fights. And Mighty is absolutely unbelievable! He just imposed his will and was close to perfect. I was thinking b4 this fight that Benavidez will beat him when they meet once again but wow, I don't know now.
Rory wtf MacDonald that should be his nickname a 'wtf'
Johnson fought one of the most impressive fights I've ever seen at any level. Just complete domination, and his opponent was no slouch. I don't see anyone taking Mighty Mouse down.
Psssh, girl, only es pay attention to that kind of crap.
Lawler will probably be a good matchup for him, but I think Rory just walks through him. Watch the BJ Penn fight again. The striking he possesses is just crazy. He varies and throws feints like few other guys in the UFC. I don't see anyone beating him except for GSP.
Lawler is basically a less-good Ellenberger - Rory will destroy him.
Well Lawler can push himself more in a fight then Jake IMO, so the fight will be more open and then you never know.
