    Did anyone watch the Jones vs. Evans fight?

    Jones is just an amazing fighter. His defense is so impressive. He is almost always ready for whatever comes his way. Even when he misses, he is immediately ready for what might be coming. Evans was probably the toughest opponent they could throw at this guy. I don't know what the UFC is going to do now, for future fights for Jones.

    If you're in the UK and experiencing that, I can't relate.

    In the states, it has never seemed that way. I wouldn't understand why anyone would have such an attitude towards a non-fan or casual fan.....much like I don't understand people who pimp the Affliction gear or sport the Tapout window stickers and aren't fans at all.

    Call Anderson Silva?

    I think Dan Henderson is the man on deck for an ass-beating.





    I didn't get to see the fight, but I would have bet the farm on Jones anyway. There's nothing Evans can do to him. Ever. Jones is on a much higher level than Rashad has ever been on.

    Jon Jones retained his UFC light-heavyweight title Saturday night with a first-round TKO of Chael Sonnen at Prudential Center.

    The end came at 4:33 of the first round.

    Jones (18-1) dominated by taking Sonnen to the ground and unloading. Sonnen repeatedly did his best to scramble to his feet. But after what likely was the fourth takedown of the round for Jones, he didn't allow Sonnen to escape.

    Jones began delivering his patented elbows, each one connecting on Sonnen's face with more force. The repeated blows forced referee Keith Peterson to end the assault.

    After the result was made official, Jones discovered he had suffered a broken left toe during the fight. He was unaware of the injury during the action.

    The win was extra sweet for Jones, who often found himself the target of harsh comments from Sonnen.

    "I wasn't planning on breaking my big toe," said Jones, who successfully defended his title for the fifth consecutive time, equalling the UFC light-heavyweight record of Tito Ortiz. "I was just trying to get back at Chael Sonnen. I really wanted to silence Chael Sonnen and I think I did the job.

    "I wanted to outwrestle Chael Sonnen."

    Though Sonnen failed to make it out of the first round, he has no reason to hang his head. During his brief stint in the cage against Jones, Sonnen fought hard.

    "He's an excellent fighter," said Sonnen, who fell to 27-13-1. "I have no issue with the stoppage."

    Sonnen hit Jones to the body and head a few times with hard punches, but he simply was overmatched. Jones was too big and too strong for Sonnen, who hinted at possible retirement.

    "I have to look at things," Sonnen said. "If I'm not in position to fight for a title, then this sport might no longer be for me."

    The prefight dislike middleweights Michael Bisping and Alan Belcher exhibited toward each other was not intended to boost interest in their bout. It was real.

    They weren't looking to play nice inside the cage, and they didn't. There were no smiles, no gestures of respect. The plan was to beat the other guy up.

    And that's what Bisping did, putting on a boxing clinic in the final two rounds of the three-round contest. Bisping was hitting and not being hit. He was in charge throughout the fight and would walk away with a unanimous decision.

    The fight was scored 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28. ESPN.com also scored the fight in Bisping's favor, 29-28. It was a solid performance from Bisping, but the bout didn't quite put a smile on his face.

    Near the end of the final round, Bisping threw a left hand but his thumb scraped Belcher's right eye. Belcher fell to the canvas and rolled around while covering his face. Shortly thereafter, blood began flowing from the area around his eye.

    Referee Herb Dean jumped in and stopped the action as a result of the accidental foul. Afterward, Bisping buried the hatchet with Belcher.

    "First off I want to apologize to Alan," Bisping said. "It was an accident. These things happen sometime in this sport. Before the fight Alan and I said a lot of things to each other, but he is a good guy."

    "Without sounding arrogant, that was exactly what I was planning to do tonight. He's a big middleweight but I knew I had the speed on him going into the fight."

    Bisping improved to 25-5. Belcher suffered his second loss in a row and slipped to 17-7.

    Roy Nelson stated his case for a title shot, knocking out Cheick Kongo in the first round of their heavyweight fight.

    It was an overhand right to the jaw that did the damage. As soon as the punch landed, Kongo slumped to the canvas. His body immediately went limp. There was no way he was going to recover from that shot.

    Nelson would land one more right hand while Kongo was on the ground, but he didn't deliver it with full force. Before he could throw another punch, referee Kevin Mulhall jumped in and waved the fight over at the 2:03 mark.

    "I did this for the fans," Nelson said. "All they do is set them up and I knock them down. I want that gold."

    "I'm ready for the title if that's what's next for me. I know I can give Cain [Velasquez] fits and if it's Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva, then I'm ready for that too."

    Nelson also tried to explain why he threw the punch that appeared to land after Kongo was already out.

    "I knew when I hit him [the first time] that he was out, but he also recovers very fast as we saw in the Pat Barry fight. I went in and hit him again then looked to the ref to let him know I was prepared to keep going if necessary.

    If he continues to level the opposition, UFC officials will find it difficult not to offer Nelson (20-7) a title shot. Nelson, who trains boxing under Jeff Mayweather, has won three fights in a row -- all by knockout.

    Kongo fell to 28-8-2.

    The expectations are very high for rising women's bantamweight Sara McMann and she offered a glimpse as to why -- registering a first-round TKO in her UFC debut.

    McGann showed off her advanced wrestling skills by taking Sheila Gaff to the ground seconds after the horn sounded to start the bout. But Graf displayed solid defense and McMann was unable to land any strikes.

    But the action quickly picked up after referee Gasper Oliver had the fighters return to their feet.

    Both fighters started throwing punches and kicks. They eventually entered into a clinch against the cage and that's when McMann took over.

    She took Gaff to the ground, got side control and began landing hard right hands repeatedly to Gaff's face. Gaff was unable to defend herself and Oliver stopped the assault at the 4:06 mark.

    "I kept telling myself this was going to be like my world championships," said McMann, who improved to 7-0. "I competed in seven world championships. I was trying to get elbows but I couldn't find the range."

    McMann explained her game plan -- "to get matters to the ground."

    "Her strongest threat was on the feet so I took her down," McMann said. "I'm a wrestler. I can take people down whenever I want to. I put myself in the captain's seat where I could do the most damage and I plan to keep doing that."

    Gaff falls to 10-5-1. McMann becomes just the third woman to earn a victory inside the Octagon.

    I know this is old news, but when the fuck did Jones break his big toe? I replayed the final seconds of the bout a few times and couldn't determine exactly when it happened.

    I doubt it was while he was showboating after the fight, because he should have been on the ball of his foot while spinning, but maybe.

    He was using his big toes as leverage on Sonnen. I thought that was where it happened.


    I thought Rogan was going to puke!! LMAO!



    Concerning Anderson Silva, I think retirement is in order. He's not getting any younger. He's still a good fighter, but I'd hate to see him hang around too late. He's too much of a legend to become a tomato can.

    Chael Sonnen rubs me the wrong way. Jumps around in weight, busted using Lance Armstrong chewable vitamins, then gets his ass beat after bumping his gums for 3 months.


    Bisping vs Belcher: You know that was retaliatory. Dirty fucker.


    Nelson vs Congo: Is it me, or is Congo's jaw a replica of Tommy Morrison's?

    I've tried to watch UFC, swear I have, as it's supposedly "the wave of the future" and "the answer to everything that's wrong with pro boxing"... and yet every time I do it turns into two dudes dry-humping. Not my thing. YMMV.

    On those horrible pay-per-view Saturday nights we have here, the dregs of humanity and the salient examples of everything that is wrong in this dumbed down America come out of their locker rooms to take time out from rat-tailing their buddies' asses to watch the fights and drool on themselves crowd up the bar for actual paying customers...
