Laursen fight is exciting with some nice stand up exchanges.

Yeah it was an awesome fight. Real close but Folayang should have got the decision.

Nice triangle by the Crusher Kawajiri.

Zoro's leg kicks and arm bar were awesome in that fight. Both Enomoto brothers went down this month.

Nice finish but I was rooting for Enomoto.

I hope the have a bunch of titlefights the next time. I really enjoyed the fights, some great techniques were displayed both standing and on the ground. No LNP!

Yeah, it was a rough month for the Enomoto brothers. Those leg kicks really added up in that fight.

That was a solid card. Kawajiri, Moreira and Ng looked great. I hope Manhoef and Nakanishi recover quickly, that was unfortunate.

If and when titles are made, they should do tournaments to determine the champion of each weight class instead of matchmaking, in my opinion.

Yeah there was great technique and the fights were real entertaining.

I agree, ONE should start crowning champs. They have some solid fighters. They should have some 4 or 8 man tournaments for the titles.

Agreed, the event was solid. Yeah, those guys looked real good, in addition to Imanari and Zoro. That Manhoef leg cut was brutal. Hopefully they make a rematch right away.

I agree on the tournaments for the titles.

Great idea to have tourneys to crown champs.

Johan's been havin' a real rough month himself with the Enomoto's falling hard and Zavarov now getting a draw against Yakovlev. We'll have to put him on suicide watch when Shamil gets his belt back again. Smile

Great recap.

Mike Kogan, King Mo's manager, said that ONE FC is a possibility for King Mo which was reported on the MMA Uncensored show on SpikeTV. That would be sweet if Rampage and Mo both end up with ONE FC. They mentioned Bellator afterward and said that is another possibility.

Zavurov vs Yakovlev a draw? Is it because of the extra round that Zavurov refused to fight? I thought the fighters were aware of the extra round if it´s a draw.

Sounds good. What is the pricetag to sign Mo? I guess he´s too expensive for M-1, they prefer to build prospects from the ground.

I am sure it won't be cheap to sign King Mo although I'm not sure how much he is making now. I think he will most likely end up with either ONE FC or Bellator. Mike Kogan, his manager, was at the ONE FC show yesterday. I would guess he's doing face to face negotiations already.
