    Anyone think that Dan Miragliata stopped that one a little early? Gonzaga was covered up pretty well and had just thrown a couple of elbows. If I was the ref, I would have waited a little longer.

    yeah, i thought so at first, but then after seeing the replay i'd lean more toward proper stoppage. tough call. werdum was starting to overwhelm him for sure.

    yah, i think so too.... :(

    damn, that sucks for gabriel... i'm starting to become a gonzaga fan! (even after the Mirko incident! :p) i think he's the most interesting heavyweight to watch... his kicks are amazing... and his jiujitsu is good too...

    not like that boring old couture! ;);)

    I'm happy to see BJ come out so strong. :) I find it hard to believe that Sean Sherk was still questioning BJ's cardio.

    I give round one to BJ, pretty definitively with BJ's ring control, dominant position and that cut on Joe's forehead! It reminds me of the cut on Edwin Dewees on TUF. This might get stopped by the Dr.

    ugh ... Sean Sherk just dropped a bunch of points in my book. :( Has he forgotten that he took steroids? Sorry, dude ... but BJ deserves that belt.

    very impressive win for bj! nice job! joe is so tough, though. if not for the cut, i think joe may have been able to hold out longer. still, kudos to bj!

    ...but as i say this he says what?!?! :eek: no need for that.

    woo hoo!! BJ!! :D

    he looked fantastic... cool as a cucumber... :p


    i was kinda hoping he would bust out something bendy, for an "other" submission... but that choke will do it! :)

    are you sure you put Gouveia as the winner in the fantasy league? Or are you just upset that the girls have won the first two events? ;)



    Edit: just kidding ... I know you picked Gouveia, so you eeked out a 2 point victory.

    overall, a pretty good show. exceeded my expectations, i'd have to say. i was hoping for a longer and more competitive title match, but bj looked outstanding.

    hey, another pre-lim. :) only sam's fight not shown. :( sorry to read on the spoilers that it wasn't very exciting, but sam did seem to get a decisive win.

    i am indeed! i have no problem losing "fairly squarely" ;)...but under "your choice" it says wilson gouveia and under "round" it says 2, but they are both in red and have x's beside them.

    See my edit above :)

    That's weird ... hopefully they'll fix that glitch. This events exceeded my expectations too. Fast main card victories and we got to see almost all the prelims

    i gotcha. :)

    i'll have to send them a "question" to their email if it's not fixed!

    it was fun playing the game once again and very good to see j's friend got his picks in on time. much cooler to play on an even playing field.

    this seems weird for the show to be done already. there were a good number of fights this time too, so i feel wiped out for the day already and it's only 7 ! releash, you must be tired. ceg was up early too. these daytime shows!

    there will be an inquiry into the controversial finish here, but for now hats off to J Bully" ;) we'll see who is undisputed when the review comes in, though! :D j's friend comes through with an impressive performance that will hopefully give ceg some inspiration to get back to the top next time. you're still the first champ! ;)
