I disagree. I think the judges got it right. I was rooting for Kongo and had money on him, but I think Herring was the better man that night. He landed more blows and I think did a little more damage to Kongo than vice versa. It was a close match, but I definately gave 2 rounds to Herring (as did the guys I watched it with).

Silva is just crazy good. I thought he was going to be knocked out in the first round with those vicious blows to the head but he came back, dominated and won. I can't think of anyone left in his decision who he could fight. I can't see him going up a weight class, but I heard rumours that he may drop down to 170 into the stacked welterweight division. Could you imagine a GSP / Silva showdown? My god that would be good!

I was dissapointed we didnt see the Arlovski and Nightmare Sanchez fights - I was really hoping they would squeeze those in.

I'm also glad that Koscheck got a good win. I want to see him start rising in the rankings again.


Now about Lesnar and Coleman. I think Lesnar is going to absolutely destroy this guy. I call it a round 1 stoppage by ground and pound. I can't wait to see this one - even though Lesnar lost he impressed the hell out of me in that first fight. If he learns some decent defense against BJJ he will be unstoppable.
