That had the potential to be one of the best MMA Cards in History, unfortunately it only half delivered.
As far as I am concerned for the main event you have to give credit to Gonzaga, he had a game plan and it worked. I am not sure if anybody else noticed but he spent the entire fight circling to Cro Cops weak side and pushing the pace on him. Crop Cop never had a chance to settle into his game plan and was on the back foot from the first instance. The kick that took him out was special and not something you would expect coming from a guy built like a line backer. People get knocked the **** out in MMA that’s what makes it so special. There is no shame in having loses on your record, shows you are fighting the right people. Gonzo looks like a complete beast, Randy is going to have major problems with this guy and really I cant see how he can beat him.
Fair dues to the Count !! fighting out of Liverpool !!! Get in there, smacked the crap out of that bloke from Sydney …. Which I suppose is a bonus. Top top performance as always ,…would like to see how he fairs against Rich Franklin or GPS … hes a gamer with skills for sure
My Favorite fight of the night and one of the most interesting MMA styles I have ever seen was David Heath Vrs Bruce Lee aka Machida …. I don’t like using this word but he was awesome, evasive and clinical. A true martial arts performance reminiscent of early UFC Karate fighters
Arlovski was effective , but incredibly boring, he fought for a points victory and got it. That said as someone who has watched a lot of Pride fights, Werdum is a world class fighter with sick ground skills … why he wanted to bang with Arlovski is beyond me, crop cop training aside this guy can tie more knots than a boy scout
The two big fellas Kongo and Silva was a pretty good show, as Rogan says if Kongo gets some ground skills he would be unstoppable … for me having seen silva fight a number of times he looked out of shape for that fight … looks like he could be destined to be an “opponent” his next fight is a must win.
Pretty good fight card over all…. Amazing Knock Out
