Evans put a major beating on Forrest and Mir tore up Noguiria.
Looks like Mir will get a second chance to beat up Lesner
Biggest surprise though was Rampage tearing up my buddy Silva - I guess it's time Wanderlei hangs 'em up.

Sorta reminding me of Roberto Duran

Wandy has been done since the Cro Cop Kick. You dont recover form something like that and contiue to train. He's the greatest warrior ever but his time is done. I pretty tight with Shogun and his peeps and word is his knees are gone. Sad to see the end of two legands. Not gonna count Shogun out but as I told ercillio his manager you cant show up in the US 3 days before a fight and not get aclimated to climate/time change/everything.

Wanderlei has lost four of his last five and was knocked stiff in three of those. I agree with Zy. Wanderlei hasn't been the same since Cro Cop nearly kicked his head off. Granted, Crop Cop hasn't been the same since steamrolling through the last Pride GP in 2006. That was is a puzzler.
I don't think that I have ever had Rashad winning any fight and he proves me wrong every single time. I still think the LHW division is so stacked that there will be a new champ every other fight.
Lesnar vs Mir II is interesting. Mir needs to watch the bravado. Yes, he won the first fight by submission in 90 seconds but he was getting the hell beaten out of him for about 88 of those seconds. He's talking as if he's going to walkthrough Lesnar. Had it not been for a very suspect halting of the fight (and one point deduction to Lesnar) by that shit ref Steve Mazzagatti, then Mir would've been TKO'd within the first minute or so. Lesnar is going to have issues with jiu-jitsu guys. I saw a much more intelligent fighter in Lesnar during the Couture and Herring fights than the complete bull in a china shop routine against Mir. Lesnar can't learn the level of submission defense to balance Mir's black belt but he can learn how to avoid certain situations.
