So Belfort almost pulled off an armbar win then got beat for four rounds and subbed. He did get a few good uppercuts in that last round. 

And it seems Dana may be gearing up to make Jones VS Sonnen.

That armbar was deep.  Have they released any info on the condition of Jones' arm yet?  I have to think it can't be that bad.  I mean, he used it to Americana Belfort into quittin'. 

Also, did they ever say how much of Dunham's brains are left?  Most had to have fallen out of that massive hole in his forehead.  That fight was awesome, though.  Fast paced, non-stop and bloody as hell.  No quit in those doods.  No quit in Jones, either.  I bet Jones'll find plenty of quit in Sonnen. 

Man, it must suck to be Machida.  Win your fight, get the shot, turn a chance to get it early down and now?  Back on the outside lookin' in.

I don't know, but he had it in a sling for the post fight conference. Jones said it was pretty bad. He was expeting his arm to snap because he wasn't going to tap. You got to give Belfort respect for putting Jones in a position that guys who are supposed to be better than Vitor couldn't. And it was early in the round when Jones is fresh and hasn't spent any energy. I thought it was over, but damn, Jones took it.

Yeah, that was a bloody fight


Yeah, that was a good fight. Rogan even said a bloody piece of vassaline landed right infront of them after Dunham got hit at the start of the round. That fight was just beastly. The deserved the fight of the night award. $65K each.

Jones? Pffft... Sonnen is going to quit on Forrest. I expect it'll be another submission loss for Sonnen, like the previous time the two met.

Yeah, Machida had enough time to train for Jones. Hell, it's not as if he was going to come up with some new game plan. Machida's fighting style doesn't change from fight to fight or fighter to fighter. Shogun noted that in one of his interviews before the second fight the two had, and he knocked Machida out cold.

He said it was numb, too, I guess.  That's not good.  Tough guy, man.  And yeah, Vitor earned some respect that's for sure.  I heard a lot of people thought he was just showin' up for a payday.  He took that fight seriously and brought the best game he could.  Impressive stuff.  Both guys, really.

dood, you could see the blob fly off his head when he got hit.  Nasty.  Definitely FotN.  That's the kinda stuff that keeps guys in the UFC even if they lose constantly.  It was a lot of fun to watch.

Jones? Pffft... Sonnen is going to quit on Forrest. I expect it'll be another submission loss for Sonnen, like the previous time the two met.




Forrest is gonna get wrestled down and then cry himself to sleep.  His head hasn't been right since Silva broke it.  He likes money, not fighting.

Machida's fighting style doesn't change from fight to fight or fighter to fighter. Shogun noted that in one of his interviews before the second fight the two had, and he knocked Machida out cold. 




I was surprised he said no but also sorta understood.  He was on a plane to Brazil or whatever.  Still, when you get that chance you take it.  Especially if you've already lost to the guy once.  I mean, it's not like people are clamoring for Jones/Machida 2.  Er, unless they wanna see him pass out again.

Yeah, he doesn't change anything and that's why Rua ran him over.  Machida likes to counter.  Well, if you don't give him time and space, he can't.  Then it's game over, b.  Rua's camp was smart enough to see it.  Jones' camp ... notsomuch.  They just got lucky that Jones is, well, Jones.

Definitely. Vitor was up against a guy that was taller, had a longer reach, could strike, wrestled, was younger, etc., and he still went in there and almost won it in the first round.I'm guessing Jones won't be fighting for a while from that viscious armbar.

Yeah, I know. The slow motion of that shot is awesome.

Their first fight wasn't much different than what you describe. Sonnen just got caught by a triangle choke. It was Sonnen's second loss, first to a triangle choke (the first of many to come).

Yup, it's pobably why Dana was like Now you're fighting Henderson... just in more explicit wods... Dana style, you know?

Yeah, if Jones had gone ischarging and throwing strikes, it would have probably been less than a minute into the first round before the ref had to pul Jones off of Machida.
