Quoteworthy:
"This is the fight I've waited for since I got in the WEC. It feels great to get a win off him coming off his (Bowles) loss knowing he was going to come in determined and inspired and bring everything [he had]. I always thought I was going to win this fight, I always thought I matched up really good with (him). Honestly, a month before I told all my team mates 'I'm going to guillotine Miguel' . Whatever the WEC wants but I'd love to go in and avenge my only loss [to Dominick Cruz] and I thought it was a great fight we had before and I know I can go in there and beat him. My goal is to become world champion and he has the belt right now so I get to avenge a loss and reach my goal."
12-1 WEC bantamweight standout Joseph Benavidez, whose only defeat came during an action-packed 135-pound war with Dominick Cruz last August, talks about his dominant performance against former division champion Miguel Torres, who succumbed to a second round guillotine from the Team Alpha Male fighter at last night's WEC 47 event in Columbus. Now Benavidez wants to avenge his only loss and become world champion -- which he can now do with one fight following Brian Bowles TKO loss to Cruz on the same card. Who takes the rematch?

...to a victory. BJ, Alves etc. BJ has more skill than he does.

I didn't think it was possible but...
The5thBeatle just made PB and this other idiot look half smart.

Beatle, isn't wrestling a skill of mma?

simply because he copied ur bj sig. and profile style i gotta lean with you.
gsp would beat BJ again if they fought a third time tho, but i do believe Bj would put up a much better fight with his coach, maybe even pick up a UD.

I hope so, i was about to give them a link to cagepotato.com where they can act like 15 yr old shit heads on there. Amazing how it takes 2 people to piss off the whole site. But to be honest PB alone was bad enough.

i too was thinking that same thing, but then thought fack is this site really turning into this?

i know its all in fun, but come on now i’d like to think were all over 18 so act like it. and i em a messiah!!

Yes More skills
Tell Bj to stick to his class, he would just lose again and result would be the same even if they fought 100000000 times .
Benavidez is alittle bad ass
I was pulling for Torres but knew this could very well go down like it did.

I was wondering why this thread had over 100 comments
Turns out its just 2 idiots bickering at each other like 12 year old girls.

I'm not so sure of that, BJP. I think these two cluster fucks are going to continue posting and ruining this site.
PB doesn’t seem to be getting the hint, and this new fuck seems just as bad or worse. We need to press the actions button and get rid of these assholes before they multiply.

Are you the guardian angel to all trolls? I think we should all flag them(and you) as trolls.

Agreed freedom but if it annoys the majority of posters then it is a problem. It has annoyed me and I don't go looking for internet spats.

OJR being annoyed says it all.
OJR is always a peace maker, and even he can see this is BS!

Ignoring them is one thing...
But I think Mania has a great following and for the most part has avoided being hijacked by crap. If you let one person shit where you sleep, more people will begin to shit in the same area, until pretty soon we are all covered in shit because you are in a room of wall to wall shit…Most of Mainas followers are true fight fans and can hold pretty decent discussions and arguments without being childish and annoying. Flagging and getting rid of the trash helps assure we don’t become a landfill!

Just let them have the thread. Its too late. Move on to another one. If they pull this stuff again just email Tom or Jesse and their accounts will be suspended.

Glad to see that those idiots have been censored, pat on the back to whoever deleted their posts
I don’t know what they were trying to prove other than their stupidity. I was expecting a big discussion on a night of upsets in the WEC, not BJ and GSP’s most annoying fans making my eyes bleed. We don’t need the site to devolve to juvenile insults and I’m glad to see that those pathetic comments have been deleted. Here’s to having real discussions on MMA.
"Not a lot of professional sports down here (in Australia)"
"We just had our best season (of TUF) last season and it was season 10"
"Nogueira is probabaly the best HW of all time"
Dana White, proving that he's clueless about Australian sports, has never heard of Fedor and is still trying to hype up TUF 10.
lol there are some other post going on in the site today aswell that are odd
it seems like mania is kinda like that movie the crazies today.

That's how it is on the weekend.
It’s a war zone.

this thread
Seeing 200+ comments and then reading this thread is comparable to hearing your doorbell ring 5 times while you sleep and then opening the door to find a flaming bag of dog shit.
In all honesty pb+j I think the anger comes because PB has been doing this for weeks now and most seem to have made the best out of it but when trolls find freinds it can become a little overwhelming for regulars who actually do want to talk mma, we had a nice card last night with some big upsets, weekends are slow on here so when a thread looks active and then you find that all the comments are underage bantor it can be a let down.
Seriously share e-mails and become freinds just leave it off the threads…
Jds I read your comments on the other threads today and I think you can come back from this
Pb please understand that one of you is as much as most are going to be able to handle. Maybe cut back sightly on funny pb and give us more of mma fan pb….

I'll take Benavidez to beat Cruz.

stylistically, Benavidez loses that fight 9 out of 10 times….ala Cruz’s comment already.
