I am glad TUF 10 is finally over. I am hearing good things about the TUF 11 Middleweights & I'm kinda looking forward to Tito & Chuck talking shit to each other. It won't be as bad & repetitive as Rashad & Rampage plus they will actually fight after the show...crazy I know.

I'll start with James McSweeney. This guy in my opinion is the real deal. He is only going to get better. Although he doesn't have much of a ground game...neither did Chuck Liddell in his prime & we all know what he did. McSweeney can also take a punch & he is a very good striker.

Although Matt Mitrione didn't make it to the finals & pretty much looked like a D bag throughout the show I think he also has potential. He is a very resilient, big dude with a decent all around game.

Frankie Edgar is a beast at 155. I picked Matt Veach because of his strength & the fact that he trains with the H.I.T Squad. Edgar in my opinion is extremely close to a title shot. He should get the opportunity depending on Gray Maynard's performance against Nick Diaz at UFN 20. Edgar lost to Maynard at UFN 13 by UD.

Kimbo Slice did not win that BS fight against Houston Alexander. Kimbo won the 2nd round & that's it. I'm not even going to get in to the whole Kimbo thing, or fights being thrown. If any of you have ever seen Kimbo's YouTube fights you would know he doesn't knock people out...he knocks them (them being fighters you have never heard of & will never hear from again) down. His ground game is better as we all saw. Alexander did a lot of circling but that doesn't mean he lost the fight because of it. I am really not interested in watching Kimbo fight anyone but Dana is interested in the money he brings so we will have to put up with it for a while.

Bones Jones is an animal. He would have won the fight regardless of the 12-6 elbows he threw. I thought Hamill would win by decision. I think it should have been a NC. I hope Hamill heals up & comes back strong. I need to give Steve Mazzagatti a big shout out for verbally asking Hamill if he could continue. Steve you are a genius who's talent knows no bounds. Being a referee is an extremely hard job & must be even tougher when you don't know much about the fighters.


Big Country is smarter than the majority of the "fans" that watch this sport. People dogged him for laying on top of Kimbo as much as possible. This guy knows what he is doing & he proves it time & again. His black belt wasn't given to him by WAMMA...he earned it. I picked Schaub to win by TKO. I thought he would work some GNP on a gassed Nelson but unlike Kimbo..Big Country can really "throw dem thangs". I'm looking forward to watching him fight some of the monsters in the HW division. If Brock doesn't get better soon maybe Shane Carwin can exact some revenge for his boy Brendan.

One last thing, Big Country earned his way into the UFC, Kimbo didn't. Stop hating on Nelson.

UFC 107 is coming up this Saturday. We will have the full card with weigh-in results & predictions coming up in the next few days.
