was looking to lock in Henderson soon. I think Edgars championship run will be stopped by Henderson.

Honestly, I have not even begun to think about that fight, let alone cap it.  I really have no lean at the moment.  Both guys have looked really good lately.  Edgar can really take a beating and some how keeps going.  I am really impressed by how lightning fast his striking footwork is.

It all depends on Morecraft's game plan.  My thinking is that he will be pink slipped if he loses, so I do think he will fight smart and utilize his wrestling/submission game to try to take Barry out, which is basically been proven as the best method to beat Barry.

I think Cormier takes this one..Barnett is kind of sneaky but just feel like its Cormiers time now

I have not really thought much about this one either.  Basically, if Barnett is able to take Cormier down, Barnett will win this fight.

Man, I wish I had pulled the trigger on the Magic tonight.  They are up 42-22 with 2 and half minutes to half time.  When was the last time the Lakers were held to under 30 poins in a half?

Big mistake by Morecraft trying to go for a choke when he did not have the position but could have landed some serious GnP to set it up, and ended up paying the price for it.

Oh well, I cannot win them all unfortunately...

Barry is just damn improved.

Not much Morecraft can do there.

I am not really sure Barry showed any improvement tonight.  He still showed zero takedown defense.  I also think it was more of Morecraft's lack of execution and experience that cost him tonight.  He should have know he would not be able to choke out a guy from side mount, and should have been pounding on Barry at that point in time to get Barry to completely give up his back so he could lock it in.

When he had Barry in the arm bar, he should have felt Barry coming over the top, and should have turned into him to end up in Barry's guard, instead of giving up that position.

Very close first round, one in which Easton may have lost...

This fight is so close.  Knowing how the judging is, one probably has it 2-0 Easton, one probably has it 2-0 for Papazian, and the other probably has it 1-1
