Re: Official MMA Thread
If the GSP/Condit fight were happening in 2011 I would tend to agree with you. However, I believe that GSP will be more aggressive than we've seen in a long time due to his extended layoff from MMA....

It seems 77 pages is all we're going to get for MMA lol.
Anyone excited for the GSP vs Condit fight coming up? I'm actually looking forward to the Bendo vs Diaz fight more :tu

Yep, the Olympic judo turned MMA fighter. Undefeated, with all wins coming by submission (armbar to be exact). Hell, one of her wins was by flying armbar.

It looks like the reign of the Last Emperor is "officially" over. 3 losses in a row for Fedor. Such a shame that the mighty have fallen.

I know our MMA talk has dwindled in the last year but I sincerely hope some of you caught last nite's event. UFC 132 was probably their best and most action-packed card of the year :banger
