roy nelson is awesome- Seems like Every fight he gets is against some monster of a fighter/slugger- His chin is unnatural- and shots to the gut barely faze him-

He’s the most unlikely fighter, yet he’s the real deal- Not htem ost technical, nor skilled, but he can defiantely hold his own against the best I nthe business, and sometimes win too-

Wish Matt Mitrione had remained in UFC- He was fun to watch too

Barnett is the favorite but I’m going with Huge Gigantic Country.

And Mousasi in the co-main. I don’t know if Hall has it in him to beat a guy like Mousasi, we’ll soon see.

My gut said Hall but my head said “C’mon you just need some tums.”. ;p

I did not think Hall could do that to Mousasi. That guy is top notch.

That was one of the most incredible wins I’ve ever seen wow!

Listen to the translator lady, Japanese is spoken very fast.

"shots to the gut barely faze him"

I heard Joe Rogan say one time "It's like hitting your friend when he's wearing 20 sweaters"

Barnett looking good in round 1 but I have to presume Nelson won the round with 2 take downs.

Nice high kick towards the end of the round by Nelson but I think Barnett won the round.

These guys are TIRED. Both looks like they could collapse. Barnett wins if it goes to the cards.

I can’t believe neither one knocked the other out and both lasted 5 rounds.

That was grueling.

Barnett seemed to have the better cardio and beat Roy up most of the fight.

Barnett wins by unanimous decision.

That's a wrap folks! Thanks for coming. We'll be back next weekend for UFC 192 - Cormier vs. Gustafsson.

See you there!

Kinda reminds me of Hunt/Bigfoot (except this fight was more one-sided). No one thought that fight would go the distance either. Country has a hella chin, he took a lot of punishment.

Tomorrow (er later today’s) card just took a hit, Johnny Hendricks had......a bad weight cut (which caused a kidney stone? damn dude) and is out of his fight with Tyron Woodley, too late to get a new opponent for him. This weight cutting.

Joseph Benavidez vs. Ali Bagautinov was taken from the FS1 prelims and added to the PPV.

He had one job.....very disappointing.

Anyways I'm doing a rib competition today so tonight's thread may be a bit late but it will be there.
