hers is my take on the fights.

nick diaz : serious pimp fighting / serious pimp sunglasses(a sponser of his) basically did the same thing to m. zaromskis that he did to scott smith. jab, hook and body shots.

marloes coenen : did the best she could and had an opening kick to the stomach and another kick i liked in the third round but santos is too strong for any women she will face.

herschel walker : did well for a 47 yo man but the fight was boring.

robbie lawler : was taking some serious kicks to his calfs and looked like he was going to go down but hits manhoef with a perfect strike to the face and added another just before he hit the ground. it just goes to show what one punch in desperate times can do for you. i still think m. manhoef can do well in strikeforce, he just got caught.

bobby lashley : did well against a guy who was way out of shape (to me wes sims looked like he could have been 290 pds) i hope they put lashley up against someone much bettter next time.

they did not air hieron vs riggs fight on the west coast. that’s all folks.

i'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. i was building a house, i don't deserve this, deserves have nothing to do with it. bang. "unforgiven"

I don’t think he got caught… Manhoef just has an Arlovski-style chin. Not to mention Lawler has good power. It’s a combination that makes for a bad night for Manhoef… and man, those extra two shots he took took him KO’d to KTFO’d; the look on the poor guy’s eyes with the blood STREAMING from his nose will probably give me some less than favorable dreams.

robbie lawler was limping to the middle of the cage when the decision was announced.

never said lawler did not have power. actually it’s you who has it mixed up. you can’t say he did not get caught and then say robbie lawler has good power. which one is it? it was a great ko but i think lawler was getting his azz kicked. unless of course you think that was his strategy? (i admire guys who can take punishment and dish it out) I still think manhoef can do well in strikeforce. in my very humble opinion. peace sells but who is buying?

since i know you like my prediction’s soo much here goes this one. jon jones destroys brandon vera. lyoto machida beats rua b/c i think L.M is a very smart guy(not that i want it to happen) then jones gets his chance vs machida. jon “bones” jones speed is too much for machida and lyoto gets KTFO’d and i win alot of real money. p.s. when it happens please use your computer skills to reprint my paragraph again when it happens. jones might have to fight one more guy but he will destroy him too. peace.

I like Jones& Machida to win too

but they won’t fight for a while, if even in the next year or two.

Lawler was limping because he was fighting the hardest hitting man at 185 in the world, in my opinion. Manhoef is a devastating striker, and Lawler hasn’t exactly fought an A-level K-1 star. When a guy “gets caught” it suggests that the other guy got a lucky shot that caught him oh-so-perfectly. The difference here is that whether Lawler hit Manhoef in the 1st or the 3rd, he’d have gone down in flames like he does. Lawler has power, not Manhoef power but still very good power for 185. A good comparison here would be saying that the rock that I threw that shattered the window was a lucky throw; any rock that hit the window would break it, it was just a matter of whether I’d throw the rock or not.
