UFC 111 results recap from last night for 'St. Pierre vs Hardy'
This UFC 111 recap is brought to you by Comcast.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) tonight (March 27, 2010) made a triumphant return to the Prudential Center for its much ballyhooed "St. Pierre vs. Hardy" pay-per-view (PPV) event from Newark, New Jersey.
British striker and unlikely welterweight number one contender Dan Hardy was hoping to become the Cinderella story in his main event title fight against reigning champion Georges St. Pierre.
Unfortunately GSP turned him back into a pumpkin at the stroke of midnight.
"The Outlaw" was arrested on his feet and locked up in the Canadian's ground game for the better part of five rounds. Hardy, despite surviving several gruesome arm locks, was outclassed and abused en route to getting sent to the back of the 170-pound line.
"Rush" was never in trouble -- but also couldn't finish an opponent that was clearly overmatched.
In the co-main event of the evening, Shane Carwin wanted to prove to Frank Mir and the rest of the mixed martial arts community that he's the true number one contender to Brock Lesnar's UFC heavyweight title.
Mission accomplished.
Mir was loosey-goosey at the start of the five round interim title fight, allowing the hulking "Engineer" to press him against the cage and land short, crisp punches. The former division champion made it back to the center of the cage in an effort to throw hands, but made the mistake of getting bullied into the fence for a second time.
It was a mistake that would cost him the fight.
Carwin found an opening and unloaded a blitzkrieg of uppercuts until his opponent went limp. Mir instinctively grabbed an arm on his way down to snoozeville, but referee Dan Miragliotta decided to let him eat a few dozen sledgehammers "just to be sure."
Ladies and gentleman, Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin in Summer 2010. Let the hype begin.
Representing Point Pleasant, New Jersey, Kurt Pellegrino wanted to make a statement heading into his 155-pound scrap against promotion sophomore Fabricio Camoes.
And "Batman" made it a dark night for "Morango."
Pellegrino was electric right out of the gate -- a bit too amped perhaps as Camoes used a standing rear naked choke to Master Blaster his adversary into very deep waters. Unfortunately the Brazilian ate a pile-driver for his efforts and it was all Jersey Shore from there.
After turning it up yet another notch, Pellegrino forced a tap through a slick rear naked choke slapped on in the second round. He made his statement -- and it was certainly loud enough for the rest of the contending lightweights to hear.
Was Gray Maynard listening?
When Thiago Alves was forced to bow out of the March 27 event, up-and-coming welterweight Ben Saunders asked to step in for the Brazilian to take on Jon Fitch -- a fighter who's come under fire lately for his inability to finish an opponent in nearly three years.
Consider that streak alive and well.
The former collegiate wrestling standout stung the "Killa B" for three rounds with a relentless ground-and-pound attack facilitated by powerful takedowns. Saunders was unable to untangle his lanky limbs long enough to do much damage -- and Fitch seemed to get the better of the stand-up exchanges anyway.
Has this winning performance earned him a second crack at Georges St. Pierre?
Jim Miller and Mark Bocek kicked things off on the televised portion of the event with a bout that play-by-play announcer Mike Goldberg called "very evenly matched."
Indubitably.
The Sparta native defended an early and aggressive attack, nearly finishing the Canadian with a deep Kimura in the latter part of round one. Bocek was kind of enough to return the favor in the second stanza, forcing Miller to spend the last 90 seconds on his back fighting off a rear naked choke.
Unfortunately the gritty chess match the defined the first two rounds dissolved into an ugly slugfest by the third frame, but it was the hometown boy that impressed the judges enough to take a decision across the board.
And an impressive performance from Bocek in defeat.
That’s enough from us — now it’s your turn to discuss "St. Pierre vs. Hardy" in the comments section below. Sound off, Maniacs.
Is Pellegrino close to a title shot? Does Fitch deserve the next crack at Georges St. Pierre? Who does Mir fight next?

Cain and Mir need to fight next IMO. Either that, or Mir and Dos Santos.
As for Fitch and GSP 2, they both have the same style, so why not :)

I wasn't pleased with that fight either, but GSP is nothing like Fitch.
I didn’t see Fitch try to finish once.

It was never close to finishing. The number 2 guy should be able to put a number 25 guy in trouble at least once.

i told myself while watching these fights
i better not come on the site tonight and see any GSP fans bashing on Fitch…. LOL dont get mad i had to say it cause thats what i was thinking during the main event
Open up the Shit Gates and God Bless Marv
Fitch was predictably boring. He doesn't try to improve his position
or anything. If you are going to GNP people every time, you better be effective. He’s never going to stop anyone with his pace or power. At least with GSP something good could happen at any moment, because he’s moving and trying for shit. Usually I go outside and smoke a joint half way through Fitch’s fights, I am just going to start going out when they start now.

in all fairness i did also tell myself that both Fitch and GSP really needed to finish these 2 guys
but a win is a win i guess. Man Carwin sure doesnt have this problem though lol
Open up the Shit Gates and God Bless Marv
Me too. I am pissed that Georges didn't finish this fight. He doesn't have it in him to snap an arm if he needs to.
canadians cheat and lie…whereas americans are fair and respectul in sports…--HellaHectic the funniest MF'er on Mania
you're right that GSP and Fitch both are wrestlers with good top control.
But GSP is a much much better wrestler, much better athlete with better ground skills and standup skills.
Fitch looks so slow. It was pretty obvious to me that GSP wanted to finish the fight with a sub, he overcommitted 2 times and lost position, i thought he should have fought a little more to hurt Hardy and use his GnP atleast before setting up some of his attempts.
Overall it was an average card, very much grappling and not enough fighting for my taste, the Kurt/Fabricio was good they were active on the ground, Fitch and bocek/miller were boring.
there's still something so unifying about sport in it's purest form, when athletes rise above themselves and touch greatness and in doing so remind us all that we also have greatness inside of us.
yeah..break his arm and then finger him like that one fighter i can't remember his name at the moment.shesh
Fitch wonders
Why it took so long for him to get a title shot, it’s because he’s boring. He’s got a great angle, a walk on who became captain of Purdue Wrestling, and he’s got a great record, but he’s just soooooo boring. If he could just get some finishes, his road back to a title shot would be much shorter. Just like Machida would have had to wait a longer time had he not changed his style and finished Thiago. Great marketing angle, just needs to FINISH
Fitch almost killed me last night and I'm not even kidding
I had food in the oven and fell asleep during the Fitch/Saunders fight. I was awoken by my smoke detector going off and a house full of smoke. Luckily it was just the food that burnt. It scared the hell out of me and I missed all of Pellegrino/Camoes and Mir/Carwin, and about a minute of the main event.
agreed BJPennfan
While i typically disagree with most of your posts (mostly cuz i get sick and tired of the BJ love-fest) I couldn’t agree with you more here….i thought Fitch put a major ass whooping on a game and potentially dangerous opponent in Saunders. I don’t understand all the criticism of Fitch, the guy is a tough son of a bitch……and it’s not like he delivers a Huggy Bear Guida type performance. Sure, Fitch doesn’t finish a lot of his fights, but he beats the living fuck out of everyone he fights. Personally, i’ve grown to appreciate a good 3 round beat down, but i guess it’s not for everyone?

Did you see his fight before this one?
Fitch got his ass handed to him in the stand up so no he doesn’t beat them up and he doesn’t finish ANY of his fights now… not MOST.

And fuck Rogan for saying anyone booing Fitch is a meathead.
The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
I agreed with that booing.
The first four minutes of the first round Fitch laid on him and didn’t throw a punch or anything. It should have been stood up more IMO.
Rogan was really bugging me during that fight. When he had him pinned against the cage he was just holding him there, Rogan acts like he was trying for something.
canadians cheat and lie…whereas americans are fair and respectul in sports…--HellaHectic the funniest MF'er on Mania
Same here...
EXTREMELY disappointed that GSP didn’t finish. he was not this tentative since the Koscheck fight. He had Hardy in 2 submissions which was awesome and completely overpowered him but I absolutely thought GSP would stand with him more.
he had more to lose tonight
Losing to Fitch or Alves wouldn’t have completely wrecked his legacy like losing to Hardy would. He played it very safe tonight. It wasn’t fun to watch, but I can’t say I blame him. Losing to an 8-1 underdog would be disgraceful.
I will disagree with you on the "wasn't fun to watch" comment. I am not a blind GSP fan but I enjoyed his awesome TD's and his sub attempts.

GSP is completely devoid of a killer instinct. When he had that arm bar locked in, Hardy had plenty of time to tap. He didn’t, so GSP cranked a little more. Hardy still didn’t tap. At that point there is nothing wrong with snapping it. Same with the kimura. And how many solid shots did GSP land from the top?
The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
At least GSP actively seeks finishes. Fitch really is a grinder, a really, really fuckin boring grinder.
I just wanted GSP to pin him into the cage and elbow him into a beautiful foundtain of blood.

I don't think he looked that good to people who haven't seen him before.
He landed nothing and stopped nothing. He just looked like a really bendy punching bag.
canadians cheat and lie…whereas americans are fair and respectul in sports…--HellaHectic the funniest MF'er on Mania
Yeah,
that’s all he had, he probably didn’t hit GSP more than 10-15 times. I’ll be checking fightmetric for sure.
I am not sure he even hit him that much?

he also looked huge
I though he looked bigger against GSP than Alves did. And GSP has supposedly added 8-10 lbs since then.
definitely like Hardy now
crazy bastard wouldn’t tap. I did that two fights ago and had to live 2 months with wiping my ass with the wrong hand. Bocek got robbed, and I will forever hate Fitch and his shitty decisions.
'How's taste my pee pee pee?'
haha yeah, not very smart book but was crazy to watch
Now though, with BOTH his arms getting jacked, who’s gonna wipe for him?
'How's taste my pee pee pee?'
Truth, mythbuster!
I was much more impressed with Hardy in his loss tonight than I have been by any of his wins.
That is how I felt...
He was truly game. While I don’t think he is a solid top 10 yet, Only because he still hasnt really fought anyone outside of Swick (and his one KO in the UFC just got TKO’d by Nate Diaz) but he did show how far heart could get you. He took a lot less damage then Fitch and Alves. He needs to spend his time wrestling to round out his game. He will struggle I think with Fitch and Kos’s wrestling. Hardy and Alves would be a great barn burner! To really big ww standup fighters going toe to toe!

Some thoughts about tonight
I agree about GSP actively seeking to finish the fight and to a certain extent about Fitch, but you can’t blame a guy for doing what he is good at to win. Hardy is just tough and flexible as HELL! Carwin was right, there was a BIG WOW in that fight.

Shamo84
Have an issue with a guy that has a way to win regardless of other persons strengths?… Seriously, what a ignoramous statement and clear cut case of a hater. GSP did not just try to maintain position he gave some stuff up trying to finish the fight. If you guys want to watch a boxing match go watch boxing.
Another note, I hate it that Joe has an issue with the ref breaking people up that are not advancing their position or trying to do damage. He says “let them fight and lets see what happens.” If that was allowed, a Couture fight would be even more wall and stall if the ref didn’t have the option to split guys up. I know some of you might say, “well if his opponent cannot stop him from stopping then it is the opponents fault.” I agree but you need to be working to do something and better your position, I think that is a great rule.

with all the control he has
gsp should cave people faces in while he has them on the ground
that’s all i have to say..
GSP Submission attempts 1000 completion 0
WHen the F U K are people going to get off the GSP bandwagon. He couldn’t finish a fighter that wasn’t even in his same league. I hate you GSP I want 25 min of my life back.
My friend said it best
GSP HAS NO RISK IN HIM
Yeah his jits did not look sharp. And Hardy was tough, too. GSP was trying out a new toy and he did not finish.

"Georges will win by GNP"
-Matt Serra when asked who will win this weekend, while he trains Hardy for the fight
Agree with JDS vs. Mir next, but after seeing the fight tonight I think the result would be the same for Mir.
My prediction was wrong on Mir, now it’s time for Brock to dismantle Carwin
I guarantee one thing
Mir is gonna spend the next 6 months focussed on nothing but wrestling. He said coming into this that he knew Shane was the better wrestler and that was something he still needs to work on. He actually seemed to want to swat with Shane, so he has more confidence in his hands now. With Brock, Shane, and Cain all being powerhouse wrestlers and Mir being now acutely aware of his vulnerabilities in that area, he’s gonna either give up and retire after tonight, or he’s gonna shift his focus to patching that hole.
If he doesn't patch that hole I see a lot of similar fights for Mir if he ends up fighting any of those big wrestlers.

From the Kimbo-Thompson debacle, to trying to make Mir the first death in the octogon – dan miragliotta continues to be the worst ref in the business.

miragliotta total fucking idiot…agreed. How can you ref for so long and never improve?? it’s astonishing
Jeremy has really worked on becoming more aggressive but still as a jiu jitsu fighter he is unaccustomed to being on the top, and he has been on the top a lot today--Classic Mike Goldberg
Dan's rep
he’s taken so much criticism for his early stoppages, from Kimbo to Vera, I really don’t blame him for letting everyone see for themselves now that the guy is out. I would rather see a few too many than a few less that leaves people wondering. Good job for once Dirty Dan
'How's taste my pee pee pee?'
great job letting a man take shots from the hardest puncher in mma while he was flat on his back staring at the mat?
Actually he’s been criticized for LATE stoppages such as the Kimbo fight with Thompson I guess ur talking about the Werdum Vera fight which I agree was early. Either way he gets it wrong and sucks. Also, he splits them up way too much whenever the crowd boos.
Jeremy has really worked on becoming more aggressive but still as a jiu jitsu fighter he is unaccustomed to being on the top, and he has been on the top a lot today--Classic Mike Goldberg
yes his stands ups are crap
but he was criticized for stopping the Kimbo fight when Thompson had not even been dropped yet, was not LATE. Anyways, yes better to take a few too many, that’s how fighters want it, most I have heard ask the ref to make sure and not stop it until they are clearly out. I’m sure Mir would not dispute how this went down, so don’t feel bad for him.
'How's taste my pee pee pee?'
Oh well earlier he let Kimbo get pounded on for WAY too long. Then he stopped it too early when Kimbo was on offense. Probably got paid off…scumbag ref…

true about that part. And yes, scumbag is why I call him Dirty Dan. But I don’t blame him for the stoppage tonight.
'How's taste my pee pee pee?'
Early stoppages are annoying, late stoppages can be fatal
Dan is a disgrace, he should be banned from the sport he’s an absolute liability and is going to get someone killed at this rate.

Kimbo-Thompson was an obvious set up
They hand-picked Thompson for his exploding ear and told Kimbo to pop that balloon whenever he got in trouble. Dan knew what was up. Since when does a fight get stopped for a bleeding ear? When the hell has a guy ever bled to death from his ear? It’s not like the blood was going in his eyes.
you have never been so right
that was RIDICULOUS
"Georges will win by GNP"
-Matt Serra when asked who will win this weekend, while he trains Hardy for the fight
mir had both arms limp, no hear cover nothing
miragliotta should never referee ever again
Because Dana doesn't want JDS or Cain fighting each other for some daft reason
Those 2 should definitely fight for the next shot, no point having 3 guys ready for Brock when they haven’t fought each other. If that never happens then Mir should be fed to one of them.

No they shouldn't
It’s a brilliant match-up in terms of excitement and probably the best match the UFC could put together at HW, but Dana is smart not to eliminate either of them as title challengers. He doesn’t want to be in a situation again like he is in with WW now where they’re having to give title fights to 8-1 underdogs who are only debatably even TOP 10.
my drunk stoned thoughts:
1. Shane carwin EXPLOSION was amazing
2. gsp is amazing athlete….wanted no part of the stand up…and still not sure how hardy didnt tap.
who can stop a GSP takedown?
"Georges will win by GNP"
-Matt Serra when asked who will win this weekend, while he trains Hardy for the fight
wanted no part of standup?
go back and watch the fight. In the first two rounds of the fight, GSP GIVES Hardy about 4 minutes of stand-up to do something to him. Hardy does nothing. So, too bad.
yeah, Hardy was more hesitant to engage than GSP was
and I didn’t see him land a single clean shot the whole night, whereas GSP tagged Dan’s chin 3 or 4 times dead on.
I thought Carwin vs Mir
was hype train vs hype train. Two overrated and overhyped fighters in a fight that I hoped to God would end in a double KO. I’ve got to eat my world now though, GOD DAMN was Carwin’s punches explosive and powerful. I almost threw up when he started that onslaught.
You are right. Your bias overlook bit you in the ass

Didn’t surprise me at all. I’ve been telling you mofos for months that Mir would fold once Carwin tapped him.
As for GSP, too much athlete for Hardy. He should have kept schooling him in the standup but he didn’t wanna risk it. I’m torn.
Torn, and very very drunk. G’night lads.

Hey JJ I picked Carwin as well
I felt he was the real deal, but I never thought his left hand after all the fights I watched would be the strike that finished it.

I called that fight perfectly, Carwin by R1 KO as Mir gives up as soon as he gets hit, same thing happened in all of his losses. He was never going to be able to deal with Shane’s wrestling and got destroyed in the clinch, made some easy money off Shane and GSP.

Spiking is illegal? In that case that was blatant spiking and likely turned the tide of that fight imo

You’re not allowed to spike an opponent on his head or neck. Miller did the same technique to Bocek earlier in the night, but didn’t drop him on his head, but on his back rather. Pellegrino looked like he def. spiked Camoes, I don’t even think you can make the arguement that he was trying to shake him off by falling.
should be a DQ then? Of course nothing will come of it because athletic commissions are crap.

Yeah I know what you mean, but things might have gotten sketchy had he made it a standing fight. He played smart and kept his belt the way that made most sense, keep Hardy off his feet.
gsp wrestling is amazing
what is also amazing is how scared he is to open up with punches on the ground and to stand up with pretty much anybody.
well there was a moment when he had full mount and unloaded a 1,2 but Hardy quickly shifted and forced GSP off mount

dumb statement, RampageL
Anderson doesn’t “mix up his game”. Neither does Brock or Lyoto. You’re saying we should punish GSP for being more well rounded than any of those guys because he sticks with his strongest game plan?
I shall attempt to summarize the anti-GSP rants with more eloquence and less hate
He is without question the best WW on the planet right now. I don’t think anyone could possibly dispute that. The issue most have is that in his last four fights he has fought a total of 95 minutes, has never been in even the slightest bit of danger, yet he has not finished any of them (I am drawing a distinction between BJ’s corner throwing in the towel and forcing him to tap or force a referee stoppage. Yes, I know I’m splitting hairs.)
He has proven that he is superior to all these fighters, and by a wide margin, yet he refuses to display any sort of killer instinct to destroy them. Silva, Machida, Florian, Lesnar and plenty of others — they work to create opportunities to finish their fights, then finish them. GSP would rather demonstrate his dominance without inflicting any serious pain on anyone. He could have turned up the heat from top position at any time in the last four fights and gotten a TKO. He could snapped Hardy’s arm or shoulder when he had those subs locked in and wouldn’t tap. He didn’t do it. Dominant fighters need to dominate and FINISH.
The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
Machida only recently started trying to finish fights. Lesnar only has two stoppages in his life, and Florian isn't fighting guys in the biggest fights of their lives.
GSP is fighting the best version of these fighters available. When his opponent comes to fight Georges it is the biggest fight of their lives, it is hard to stop anyone in that environment.
I know GSP has had a few fights go to decision lately but his finishing percentage is still better than BJ and Machida so…
canadians cheat and lie…whereas americans are fair and respectul in sports…--HellaHectic the funniest MF'er on Mania
remember canadians are known for being nice people...and he would apologize after hurting you too..lol
that he would!
I don’t know about all Canadians, but GSP would definitely feel bad if he hurt anyone. I love the way he always goes to his opponent and encourages them after the fights, telling them how tough they were and how they surprised him with their skills and what a bright future they have ahead of them. He goes way beyond just being a sportsman and a gentleman and seems to actually make these guys feel good about themselves after getting destroyed. That’s why I’m such a big fan of his. (related to your post about personality influencing our opinions). I don’t blame him for not breaking Hardy’s arm, I admire him for it. What would be the point of injuring someone when you’re already going to win the fight? Just to appease the bloodlust of the crowd? There’s nothing manly or sportsmanlike about that! I say, “Good’onYa Georges!” I’d rather he be boring than a careless bonebreaking asshole like Mir.
Why can’t he encourage them and be all sportsmanlike after stopping them? You are all talking as though the concepts of being respectful of your opponent and finishing your opponent are diametrically opposed.
The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
being respectful and breaking someone's arm to prove a point when you're already assured a win
ARE diametrically opposed. I would love to see GSP finish fights, but going around inflicting serious injuries purely for entertainment or to prove you’re a baddass isn’t my idea of sportsmanlike conduct.
This is what GSP was talking about when he said Hardy isn't a martial artist
that wasn’t a slam on his skills, it was a criticism of Hardy’s “Messing people up, that’s what Martial Arts is about!” attitude.
He was assured of a win in the first round? Fine, don’t snap his arm even after having plenty of opportunities to tap while it’s being stretched beyond where human limbs are meant to go. Why not throw some punches and elbows from the top? And I mean real ones, not the kind just meant to make someone look busy. He doesn’t even want to posture up because of the slim possibility he gets swept.
The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
what do you know jay????????
You talk a load of shit about what £4£ is about as soon as someone says anything bad about gsp. explain to us how its is defined? and how someone who is the best £4£ take down artist in the world, automatically becomes the best £4£ fighter?
No he didn't bore me
because I’m not some douchebag with an attention span of 2 minutes.
When GSP fights you get to witness dominance. This is what you look for when you watch any sport, to see a team or person own their sport, be as close to perfection as possible and that’s what you get with GSP.

Do we really need to put a replay of the fight in your face? GSP stood up with Hardy for like 4 minutes in the first two rounds. He threw superman punches, stiff jabs, spinning kicks and straight leg kicks all which landed. What else does he have to do? He gave Hardy the chance to strike and Hardy did nothing with it. That’s on Hardy.
WORD! Hardy was totally backing up and trying to keep out of range
and didn’t land a single clean shot from his feet. The only offensive thing he did all night was punch and elbow from the bottom. That said, I think he did a superb job of defending himself on the ground, maintained guard better than BJ, and took less damage than Fitch. As I said earlier, I was more impressed by Dan in this loss than I was by any of his wins.
Yaaaaaaawwwwnnnnn!
I never care to see GSP fight ever again. Ever since Serra KO’ed him in Houston he has become a one dimensional, boring ass fighter that is not entertaining to watch. I thought it was funny that Hardy was yawning in the 4th round because that’s what I was doing since the 2nd. Yeah he’s dominant but more boing than anything.

What fight were you watching, RL?
“Hardy’s striking was far superior.” Bull-shit! GSP totally outstruck him on the feet. Hardy didn’t land a clean shot all night! GSP took him down because there was no sense risking getting caught by a lucky punch when he knew Hardy posed zero threat on the ground.
Me neither
I think what makes people want GSP to lose is mostly a reaction to the blind GSP fans whom come out with ridiculous statements like:-
He tooled Hardy on the feet (substitute Hardy for BJ, Alves too)
His TD’s are amazing and I love watching them all match
At least he tries to finish
He’s unbeatable
GSP is a good guy and an exceptional MMA athlete / artist but the shit that some people write about him is way OTT. Yeah he dominated Hardy in a grappling match for 25 minutes and couldn’t finish him. His TDs were good for about 3 minutes then it bored me that he kept doing the same thing over and over again. His 2 sub attempts were entertaining too but more so because Hardy had the balls to gut them out. Other than that, I wasn’t entertained.
Whilst he has all the tools, he is no longer an entertaining fighter. Zero risk and I have to be honest I’ll have zero interest in his fights until he becomes more exciting.

“He tooled Hardy on the feet (substitute Hardy for BJ, Alves too)
His TD’s are amazing and I love watching them all match
At least he tries to finish
He’s unbeatable”
Then you would expect him to challenge these with some arguments since they are ridiculous but no, all he does is follow up by saying that he did not find the fight entertaining. Nothing more. Wow.
We get it, you we bored. That’s fine, you have your own criteras as to what is interesting and not. Say it once and GTFO if you can’t say but that.
What is really boring is posters lining up to say the same shit over and over with differend words. I don’t like fake tits but I don’t spend my everydays repeating it endlessly on internet blogs and trying to debate how right I am to feel that way.

I don’t need to qualify those statements cos they’re are so obviously fucking stupid. I will though as you obivously don’t get it.
1) Hardy sustained probably one significant punch. knee, kick or elbow on the feet and he stook his tongue out. If thats tooling someone on the feet then i’m a monkeys uncle.
2) To say you enjoy seeing GSP do the same shit (TD / Grapple) every focking round for 25 minutes is just insane. I appreciate the fine arts of fighting but it gets boring doing the same shit for 25 minutes. Its even worse when a fighter of GSPs calibre can win that fight in so many other ways and chooses not too.
3) He tried to finish that fight in one wayy and couldn’t. Jesus after the second sub attempt anyone would’ve realised Hardy wouldn’t and move on and try tsomething else. He didn’t and failed.
4) He’s not unbeatable. No-one is.
The truth is Yan, it is boring watching a phenomenally talented fighter play it safe and rob the fans with 25 mins of takedowns and grappling.
Now you GTFO with your shit.

the only reason why Mir lost that fight was because Carwin had the strength to hold him up against the fence. Do you idiots honestly think that Velasquez or JDS or anyone else for that matter outside of Lesnar can do that to a 275lb Mir? You’re crazy if you do. And when Mir is free to get off, just ask Nog and Kongo what that means.
Mir will tool Dos Santos and Velasquez and that’s why he won’t get either until after they’ve had their title shots. Dana doesn’t want them derailed.

you guys don’t understand the power of size. Neither JDS or Cain would do shit to ANY of the 265+ guys until they get to that level. Thats a fact. Mir would easily take down JDS and sub him or stand and KO him if he wanted to. He could do whatever he wanted. And against Cain, until I see Cain prove otherwise, Mir would tool him.
Mir has take downs? You think Mir will take JDS down?

What more does Cain have to do to win respect?
He has world class wrestling and good striking, plus he’s a lot quicker than Mir. Just because Mir put on some muscle doesn’t mean that he can beat the young elite HWs, in fact he was the same Mir who folds as soon as he’s hit tonight and the same thing will happen to him when he faces JDS or Cain. Junior and Cain would both KO Mir guaranteed.

Mir has a good chin. He took serious poundings from Brock and Shane before being stopped. I don’t think any other HW would have survived any longer against those shots.
He gives up, it's his heart not his chin that's lacking
He doesn’t like getting hit and never defends himself after the first punch, everytime he takes a big hit he gives up and is easy pickings for a stoppage.

That complain about GSP should just stop watching MMA because that is the sport. You guys should just watch boxing and stick to it. And I was entertained. GSP is the truth no matter how boring.

Hardy proved that he is the man tonight
He was outclasssed by a much better fighter but he refused to give up and took GSP the distance. Can’t wait for his next fight, hopefully his arms didn’t take too much damage.
As for GSP he should have finished this fight. I knew that he’d use his superior grappling to beat Dan and would barely strike despite seemingly having the advantage at that as well. Can’t complain about the success and those submissions were brutal but he should have used more strikes from on top to finish Dan tonight, all taking Hardy the distance did was give his critics ammo to bash him.

I am the biggest GSP fan out there...
but I too was a little dissapointed tonight. I think he could have smoked Hardy standing, but I understand that the “safe” thing to do was for him to take him down and pound him. I think GSP was dissapointed too, he said as much in his post-fight interview with Rogan. I guess I am spoiled with his perfomances in the past….I expected more. Does anyone agree?
......
I don't agree at all. He tried to finish the fight with some sick ass subs. Hardy is a tough guy. I think people are either too spoiled or are just looking for reasons to hate on GSP.

I was only dissapointed that he didn’t smoke him standing…..I think he could have..lthat was my only point. He did dominate on the ground and try some sick subs. I think he could have knocked him out standing. How many shots did Hardy land on the feet?

Brock and Carwin
is going to be a hell of a fight. I can’t wait. I would like to see GSP move up 15 lbs and lay on Anderson Silva for 25 minutes. Anderson would land some kind of choke in the first round.

I have to admit that I enjoy watching Andy and BJ fight a lot more than GSP. No criticism from me for winning tonight but the method wasn’t that exciting and GSP could have done better, can’t say that I’m a fan of him. GSP is a great champion and arguably the best grappler that the sport has ever seen but even his fans have to admit that not finishing an overmatched opponent doesn’t look great for his legacy, hopefully Andy and BJ put on a better show.

Your Not going to buy another GSP fight?
Sweet that means I dont have to hear a DUMB ass as your self complain, George just too one of the beast ww on the planet and took vertually no punches kicks, elbows nothing from him, GSP never wresteled in High school nor college and to pick that up so quick and to become the absolute best at it, IS AMAZING i in high school and won state champ 3 out of 4 yrs then joined the army what gsp just did was nothing less than amazing.
Well it's MMA not wrestling!
Serra showed everyone he has no chin and now he lays on everyone for 25 minutes!
Your right its not Wrestling!
Its all aspects of fighting and with GSP ’s wrestling he shuts everyone elses styles down! SERRA SHOED EVERYONE? Ok WHY DIDNT HE SHOW THAT IN THE SECOND FIGHT? Oh thats right he was in the fetal position taking knees. Suck a dick!

Everyone says all gsp did was wrestle, well what did hardy do 2night he layed on his back becasue he could not defend ONE takedown. thats hardys fault he couldnt stop it. gsp not only wrestled, passed guard many times, threw several submissions at hardy. and if he fought the spider he would do the exact same thing to him.
DBG!!!!
I’m so sorry that GSP is your boyfriend and I’m talking shit about him. Tell him to learn how to fight and it we’ll be all good! LMAO!

What happen to the days when GSP would stand and bang with his opponents. When he knocked Matt Hughes senseless. He fights to just get by ad that ‘s not enough for a diehard fan like myself. I like him as a person. He’s a great guy very humble but he has become one dimensional and he’s just not entertaining anymore.
Much better. Good post. At least you have explained your position perfectly. I disagree with you but I can respect your point of view.

Did you forget that he also knocked Fitch senseless. That was only three fights ago. He was more willing to stand with Fitch because he knew he had the advantage on the feet. He took Alves and Hardy down as soon as possible because he knew he had the advantage on the ground. If he chose to stand with those guys, it would be as retarded as if Couture or Herring would have tried to pull guard on Lesnar. There’s really no reason to play into your opponent’s strength like that.

Im not

Brock was wearing his stilleto heels! LOL
No seriously though I think he was wearing cowboy boots, which add a good 3 inches. Barney was barefoot.
what did hardy do
stand up, get taken down, stand up, get taken down, stand up, get taken down, fight off submission, stand up ,get taken down. what hardy did tonight was boring letting your opponent butt rape u all night and do nothign about it
And I used to be a GSP fan! Can you believe it?
I guess anyone who plans to fight GSP needs to spent their whole camp wrestling because if they can’t nutrilize GSP’s wrestiing, it’s already in the books. Another win for another boring one dimensional Champion!

Like I said..
…pound for pound my ass. George cannot finish a legitimate WW. He hasn’t since December of 07’. To call this guy the best MMArtist on the planet is foolish. Pound for Pound means finishing fights and if all GSP is going to do is display a takedown show for 25 minutes is bullish. Sweet, he has good takedowns and he can move from half gaurd to side control, but thats it…Hardy is very,very,very one dimesional and survived a match with “Mr. Invincible”. People used to crack on Sean Sherk all the time for not finishing fights and just keeping top control for the entire length of the fight. But damn, GSP is even worse..

Frank Mir
He tried and lost. I just dont get why he doesnt learn to do take down like brock? Atleast he will have a better chance with carwin, mir fan disappointed.
The only surprise tonight was Carwins left
I picked Carwin but was surprised with his lefts power
"Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth - Mike Tyson
I picked carwin to ko mir and gsp to sub hardy in the first round
Man was I pissed, two very tight subs and hardy survives, I really wanted gsp to shut up the haters and now the floodgates are open. How that guy didn’t tap is beyond me. He’s going to have a sore arm tomorrow. I was very disappointed with how the fight went, what the hell happen to gsp’s ground and pound, it looked awefull. His wrestling was insane and made hardy look like an amature, gsp is too nice a guy, I think he could have broken his arm but wouldn’t, doesn’t have it in him. I think the nightmare of serra beating him was heavily in his mind, and this seemed like history repeating itself. One thing I’m surprised at is how bad I feel for hardy, he looked so pathetic and outmatched out there, gsp totally demoralised him I think. I think there are alot of bitter hardy fans on here and guys that put some money on him, oh well hopefully this blows over in the future. Imo guys did try his best to finish the fight buy submission and came alot closer with hardy than he did with alves.
The main card went mainly the way I expected, w/ GSP playing it safe and grinding out a win over Hardy, and Carwin walking through Mir on his way to fight Lesnar. Likewise the Pellegrino, Fitch, and Miller wins. I was hoping though GSP would defy expectations and put Hardy away by at least the third round, or that Fitch would step up finish Saunders, or that Saunders would miraculously find a way to put a muay thai clinic on Fitch.
The future: barring an injury, we’ll see Carwin/Lesnar, and the fight will probably answer some lingering questions about either/both fighters. Don’t know why people want to see Mir against JDS or Cain. Ideally, we’d see Cain/JDS in an eliminator match, but Dana’s already said he’s against that idea. Still, they risk more in a loss to Mir than they gain w/ a win. I say pair Mir up against Gonzaga or do Nog/Mir II.
I think Fitch’s somewhat lackluster performance now puts the focus on the next contender for GSP squarely on the upcoming Kos/Daley fight. I have to imagine either in the #1 contender spot still presents problems for the UFC in marketing it. While not in a title fight, we’ve already seen Kos fight GSP and come up short, so he would need to not just win, but win god damn impressively to buy that he has a shot against GSP next time. While Daley presents a brand new challenger for GSP, we’ve just come off of the UFC hyping up another British brawler in Dan Hardy; would people really buy Paul Daley as that much more of a threat?
I still think Rumble Johnson will be the one to give GSP the most problem in the near future.
He has the tools and just needs the experience and maturity.
Paulo Thiago is also coming up nicely.
After Maia loses to Silva, I’d like to see him drop down and challenge GSP. Then we’d get to see GSP’s awesome striking again.
i thought GSP said he could stand with Hardy
i knew he had no intention of standing. he won by pretty much holding Hardy down, & i don’t think GSP wanted to break his arm, he could have snapped his arm easily in the first but bottled it. fair play to him he’s good at taking people down but imo to be considered the best all time mma fighter you should be able to out punch a puncher & out grapple a grappler.
he should have hit him more
even when he finally did start the knees to the body, they were half-hearted, not like the rib crushers he put on Serra.
Bocek got robbed
That was insane. He was totally robbed. No way did he lose but especially by unanimous decision.
