    miguel is gradually taking over, but maeda still had a couple of strong moments there. he's fading, though, and that eye is close to stopping the fight.

    edit: it's stopped in between rounds due to the eye.


    think this was the best fight this weekend? it's right up there

    i'll 2nd mir on this one... please don't stop this fight.... if it were on Elite last night i'd be a bit worried right now lol...

    another great round with Torres taking more control, i don't think this will go the full 5 rounds


    edit: damn, it's been stopped... I guess this has more of a case to be stopped than some of the ones from last night... excellent sportsmanship from both fighters

    +1 on what you said, leafs. :) maeda couldn't continue like that.

    Dudes! What a great fight! Striking, ground work, BJJ ... insaneness!

    That eye was pretty awful! I would not at all be surprised if he had an orbital fracture with that much swelling.

    ya after seeing meada's face during the decision it was a good stoppage... His eye was fully shut, no way you put a fighter in danger like he would have been.

    exactly, that fight had everything you could ask for in a fight... I don't know much about medicine, but ya something was not right with that eye lol

    jens coming out to some good old ACDC can't complain about that... I really hope jens can win this fight but something is telling me he's going to get choked out

    Faber's round... looks great on the feet, had a couple slips but recovered really well... That spinning backfist attempt was really fast...

    I missed the hot cop . . . I'll take your word for it leafs.

    Faber won the first round imo. Pulver isn't really connecting on anything.

    How on earth did Jens Pulver survive that? His chin is ridiculous!

    Great back and forth second round ... I still give it to Faber though.

    quality fight! :) i have to agree releash...how is jens still standing? urijah has to be wondering it too!

    +1 on the cop, leafs. ;):D

    a bit of a slowed down round but still good... 3-0 for faber
    jens is looking a bit tired going into the 4th
