It wasnt even a fight…….just a death.

Thiago isn’t that terrific a boxer or Muay thai guy. But he has bricks on the ends of his wrists and if he touches you…you’re goin to sleep. Ask Keith.

Great fight nelson and a good bet for Thiago’s next fight.

Poor jardine, why do guys scream at him after KO’ing him?

The Luiz Cane fight would be sick seeing how they have mad beef from all the way back in the day to brazil.

That’s a good one. I think some other possibilities could be Rogerio Nogueira or Vladimir Matyushenko when they start fighting with the UFC.

Word.

yeah, just look at how poor Jardine’s movement and physique is.. He looks softer and weaker than a marshmallow!
I bet he gets knocked out a whole lot in the streets, cause he can’t fight!

nah nogueira randy was better, but if jardine had any kind of chin that fight wouldve surpassed randy nog, it was pretty fukin exciting for just one minute and a bit

Another loss for Jardine and he should get cut. I believe he has one win, a split decision win over Vera, in his last four fights.

He lost to Wandi not Andy but I get your point, Jardine has talent but can’t take a punch and once again his chin cost him big-time. Although I called a Jardine win, I also said that Thiago had a good chance of KO’g him early in the fight and that’s exactly what happened. Big win for Thiago although the Machida fight showed holes in his game and Jardine’s glass jaw meant that we didn’t get the chance to see how much he has improved but this could be the win that springboards him to greatness.

Now that Thiago has a big and devastating win to his name I want to see him fight more top level competition. Luis Cane would be a good fight as both are dangerous strikers who are on the verge of becoming cotenders and their rivalry makes this an even more interesting fight. The winner should then face a top 5 guy, so we can see whether they can compete and beat the best.

As for Jardine, he won’t ever become anything more than a gatekeeper. Whilst on his best day he can beat great fighters like Chuck, Forrest and Vera or be competetive with the likes of Rampage on his worst he gets brutally KO’d, like what happened against Houston, Wandi and now Thiago. Because of his weak chin, he can’t take strong punches without getting dropped or KO’d and this is something that can’t be fixed so he’s only going to be useful as a test to prospects or legends to see whether they (still) can compete with the elite of the division, as he can’t get any sort of winning run together so will never become a title contender despite his impressive wins.

hatteras = super retard

No thanks. They should give Thiago some more promising fighters. I think he deserves a bigger fight than Vera, unless they just want to give him a win.

Andy Silva vs Vera

Marquart vs Henderson

he put together a great one for nate, so dont knock the guy

To be fair, I suppose you cant plan against getting KTFO.

But your right, Thiago looked calm and in control pretty much the whole fight. I remember Goldberg/Rogan going on about Jardine “stalking” Silva, which I didnt understand. It was Thiago the whole fight moving forward, whilst still being patient and picking shots. Jardine got owned. So it is probably fair to say there was some gameplan errors.

Kang is official for co-main at 105.

so why is it you think the fighters go to his camp? you dont think rashad’s improvements have anything to do with jackson? and nate’s adjustment from pancreas into mma has nothing to do with jackson?

haha “killer”

Agreed. He looks like a psycho. And hits like a monster. Yep, awesome photo.

Tito still has a fan?

I don’t know rev, I would argue the assertion that Marquardt is the clear #2 MW and has a much better chance of pushing Anderson. Not that Hendo did anything special in their first fight, BUT he was the only fighter to take a round against Silva. I’d love to see a Nate-Hendo fight, because I think they’re both great fighters. As far as ways to win I think they both have about the same chances. Neither guy is going to submit Silva. I think both fighters only chances are KOing him, or grinding out a decision. Given Hendo’s ability to dictate a fight using his wrestling I’d give him the edge in the chance to decision Silva. And I think Nate has a more diverse stand-up game, but I don’t necessarily think that’s going to give him the advantage on the feet. Obviously neither fighter has the advantage over Silva on the feet. They both have KO power, but in all honesty I’d probably say they have about an equal chance of landing the KO punch. I might actually give Hendo the slight advantage over Nate because of his iron chin allowing him to take more damage while getting something off. Personally I’d like to see them fight it out because I think they’re both deserving, and I that would give us two great fights to look forward to(Nate-Hendo, then winner-Silva). Just my take.

hahaha! ranting with your stupid posts james? excellent example is when you pick couture over nog… u got no brains by saying hendo doesnt have a ground game…and by the way if hendo vs nate will come in the way? nate will be finished by ko or gnp..nate’s standup is way overrated

WTF?!?!?

Why should Nog fight the loser of Mir/Kongo since he’s coming off of a win over Couture? A fight with the winner of that match could secure a title shot.

I don’t think you’ll see Bader/Carwin since Bader’s a LHW, and Carwin a HW.

somebody’s been drinkin cough syrup..
