    Bigfoot Silva clearly won rounds 1 and 2. The potbelly blonde haired guey won rounds 3 and 5. Round 4 - the potbelly troll looking guy was winning the first half of the round but then Big Foot was clearly annihilating him the second half of that round.

    I thought the ref was gonna call a stoppage towards the end of round 4 as Silva was pummeling this guy and crushing his head in. Decent fight....nothing great. But good effort put in by both.

    Maybe you're not giving enough credit to a fight in which both participants clearly put everything they had into it, and defied all expectations with their toughness. It was never a technically perfect fight, not even close, but there were moments of legitimately good technique on both sides, and neither guy could have really done more. What's a great fight, if that wasn't? Shogun vs Henderson was great for the same reasons, and was probably even more technique-less than Bigfoot/Hunt.

    Maybe so , perhaps Im giving too much weight to some of the ridiculously sloppy things I saw (such as Bigfoot's takedown defense against the cage) rather than the fight as a whole.

    I thought it was a very entertaining fight. Better than Hendo/Rua imo. Back and forth, both fighters nearly finished. Both showing tremendous chins and heart. Fights like that draw in the casual fan.

    i agree with this also. Hunt obviously has talent in his hands and is one of those guys who puts ya on the edge of ur seat when he fights. Yes there were a lot of sloppy moments but that happens when u are exhausted. I thought it was a great fight and not two tough guy competitors like i most times do and get reemed for lol. Funny part of this fight is that for the first time i started questioning myself on why i love fighting so much. It really is barbaric and enjoying it might be to. Those two guys took days of their lives. I didn't watch any press afterwards but im sure Dana loved it and wished all fighters fought like that as long as it isn't his brain getting mushed.

    Way to be a total kill joy. Leave it to Vaughany to be the turd in the punch bowl.

    Where are these "rates" youre talking about? Please provide evidence.

    Also, i think the word your lacking, if you can come up with these rates, which i doubt, is highest discovered rate of juicing.

    And you honestly think Hunt snorted a fat line before going into the cage with Bigfoot? Maybe in bumfuk promotions, but not in the bigger ones.
