lol. You're quoted man. I still say you're wrong about the other HW's man. But you called it on Gonzaga. Randy Couture was calling for the upset too. It might be a little premature to call him a top HW (Randleman stunned us the same way), but he definitely looked like it tonight.
Crocop made a big mistake thinking Gonzaga was throwing that kick to the body and he paid for it. They're saying he sprained his ACL and MCL.

I was surprised he walked on that, his shin was pointing the wrong way.

All that leg stuff was empty - the camera just had a funny angle.
Now...what the hell happened? Was he really just suckered into thinking it was all about the takedown and there would be no other aspect to the fight? Circling the wrong way, no proactive moves at all, dropping hands to defend low attacks? What was he thinking? Just didn't look like the Crocop I've been watching this last year at all?

Did anyone else notice he came out dry and much less aggressive than usual? He might've just taken Gonzaga too lightly, especially in the striking aspect.
And LT, how about that Arlovski fight.... It was better than Koschek vs Sanchez but not by much. At least Werdum had some good flurries and tried to push it.

Ya, it looked pretty bad. I've seen guys walk with tears before back in college so it can be hard to tell. If it is just strained like they're saying then he's lucky.

He did come out pretty passive. Hell, he only threw one kick and no punches. But it looked to me like Gonzaga had a lot to do with that. The best way to beat Crocop is to be aggressive so he can't set up his strikes.
Werdum and Arlovski should both have had part of their purses taken away for stalling. That was pathetic.

Have any of yall seen the IFL?
Is this some type of ripoff/spinoff of the UFC?

I've watched the IFL. I'm pretty sure msot of us have. I don't think it would be accurate to call it a ripoff of the UFC or any other MMA org though. Even the UFC comes from Vale Tudo. The big difference between the IFL and other MMA orgs is that it's team based instead of individually based. They have some good fighters/coaches who have fought in the UFC and Pride but it's not in the same league as the UFC/Pride right now.

Welcome man. It's a pretty good show. If you like MMA you'll probably like it.

Tried looking for the Bisping video, but dailymotion took it down. Any where else hosting it?
