I was going to mention that earlier NCRADIOMAN but just never got around to it. I think Okami was even the #2 ranked middleweight before he injured himself in training.

I wouldn't be surprised if Machida wins.

Whats your guys take on Cain Velasquez vs Ben Rothwell ?
I have a feeling Ben Rothwell going to win.

I'm picking Rothwell but who knows. Rothwell's a 2 and a half-1 underdog

Underdog? Damn... I guess since he is 6-0-0 people think hes going to win?

Rothwell is good but Cain is a big step up in competition than what Ben has faced. I hope he pulls it off.

Some good fights tonight.

The main event decision was an absolute joke. Shogun dominated that fight and you could see it on Machida's face right before the decision was read. Very classy by Shogun after the fight despite what appeared to be a terrible decision.

Cain dominated his fight against Rothwell and regardless of the end of the fight would have likely ended it shortly there after.

Stevenson looked completely dominant in his fight and had a great end in a knockout.

And Anthony Johnson looks like an absolute freak. As much weight as he cuts he looks like he was fighting in a different weight class. It will be interesting to see if he can continue to cut so much weight or will just decide to move up.

Total B.S. decision on that fight. It's one thing for the judges to favour the defending champ, but for that fight to be a unanimous decision for Machida was brutal.

I read that he didn't make weight. By a lot. 5lbs.

Yeah, Okami is awesome. UFC is wasting him for some reason. I bet SrikeForce would promote the hell out of him with great success.
