Watched the UFC last night & saw some technical grappling + sub attempts

All they have to do now is to get rid of Dana and use a ring.

nate diaz sub and the sweep in the end of round 2 was all class

And Rogan and Goldberg (especially Rogan).

And Bruce Buffer

^ I could'a watched Palhares & Belcher scramble all tied up together for a full three rounds. Pretty entertaining on the ground while it lasted.

Yeah that was awesome, Belcher has some great skills both standing and on the ground.

Lol true, maybe it would be best if DREAM bought the UFC and killed the brand to take all the best fighters.

I can't stand Rogan. He was a good fit for fear factor I guess, that should've been the ceiling.

We talk trash on zuffa but the fact is that the ufc is really not so bad at all.

All they need is a few changes here and there ( like getting rid of White, changing to full rules instead of American rules, getting rid of the Fertitas, no championship clauses, no exclusivity clauses, fair payment to fighters, getting rid of the cage, getting rid of the commentators etc. etc.) to overcome mediocrity.

Lmao, then all that is left is the fighters.

Yeah UFC isn't too bad when you only watch the last 3 main event fights and dodge close to 10 decisions

palhares is a steroid bully with a proven glassjaw

He also finished second at ADCC recently, while training mma fulltime. Yeah I know he trains at BTT with BJJ god Bustamante, but you get my point. He is one of the best grapplers in mma and beastly strong. Belcher showed a lot of skills, his BJJ BB seems pretty legit, especially since Palhares has tapped far more experienced grapplers. Palahres is no Imanari but I was sure he was gonna be bringing home Belcher`s leg a few times in that fight.

Yeah Palhares is a fantastic fighter and I wouldn´t count him out against anyone. He almost subbed Henderson not a long time ago.
