  rampage is one of those many fighters i wonder about asking how much better he could have been if he was more disciplined in his career with his training and smarter with his physical gifts, cuz that guy is SOOO gifted athletically

  I am a relatively new UFC fan, having only watched the sport for around 2 years. I love the discipline involved with sports such as this and boxing, its incredible dedication and willpower!.
  
  Fighters ive enjoyed watching either live or on highlights of older fights are chuck liddell and rampage jackson.

  Impressive win for Henderson. He was just too big for Edgar, who looked at least one weight class below him. He does'nt seem to want to but he should really try to move down to 145.
  Rampage looks like he's well past his best. It's never a good sign when a fighter misses weight by so much.

  yea rampage is done, nothing left to fight for, i wished he would win but not to be, if he connected well he would have got the KO but there it is looks like he's finished, great career, big underachiever still
  
  yea well done to henderson but frankie should move down the 145, he is amazing, i would LOVE to see him against aldo - it's that classic awesome striker/BJJ guy with amazing balance and DT defense vs the well rounded great wrestler.
  
  and to think if he moves to 145 he'll STILL be smaller than aldo... edgar has BALLS to fight at lightweight, mucho respect.
  
  and on another day he would have won that fight NO doubt. cuz what did they say when shogun lost to machida in their first fight - that if you're fighting for the title you gotta decisively put the guy away, which henderson did not do so judges could have gone the other way.

  Ya, the challenger should always have win clearly as the champion always deserves the benefit of any doubt in a really close fight. It's not a great sign for Henderson that he could'nt finish Edgar considering how much bigger he was. The only time he really had him in trouble was when he caught him with the up kick (I still can't understand that how Edgar survived that). Edgar V Aldo would be a great fight alright and it may be closer after last weekend.

  yea and they asked frankie if he thinks he deserves an immediate rematch, i would much rather see him go down to 145 because he deserves immediate title shot there, but he its true he had to fight BJ penn twice. and he beat BJ the first time more convincingly then henderson beat him last weekend.

  who has everyone got in the jon jones vs rashad evans fight i think rashad has the best chance out of everyone at light heavy but i still think he will get beat bones is just to skilled

  i am not sure. i think jon jones talking about rashad's last fight and saying how he never even got back to his original pre-injury layoff best is not just trash talk, it's true. he should have looked more agile, more energetic and more skilled against phil davis, if he puts in a performance like that against jones, he'll lose. and honestly i think it's age, i think rashad is past his prime.
  
  there is a tonne of analysis and rumours and hype etc etc around a fghter all the time, but usually you can just tell by the way he moves. when a fighter stops MOVING well in the octagon, he hardly ever makes it back.
  
  i hope i'm wrong cuz i don't like jones and want him to lose.
  
  i'm really looking forward to what happens with dan henderson though too. it's so interesting he could get a crack at anderson silva OR jon jones. how interesting is that when anderson silva himself wants NO part of jones.... :)

  I think Jones will be just too good for Evans. Agree Evans did'nt look his best in his last fight but anyone can have a bad night.
  
  Why don't you like Jones?

  i don't think it's a bad night though, it's not as though he looked great and did things well but they didn't come off for him, he looked sluggish to me and tired. you might say that's bullshit he's faster than most, but his agility, speed etc used to be a strength of his and i think he lost it.
  
  i'm not sure why i don't like jon jones lol, i think it's because of how fucking smug he is, he just has this air of arrogance. which i don't mind in a fighter, but he puts on airs, like he's all humble bless god blah blah blah type of guy, but really he's an arrogant little prick. if you're gonna be arrogant then be like nick diaz, if you're gonna be humble, be like fedor, don't like fake fighters lol
