    Frank Mir creeps me out, always talking about injuring his opponents and finishing their careers, I hope Kongo can pull this out.

    I can't believe a guy with pink shorts and whiteboy cornrows won.

    yes by decision, he got rocked at the end.

    BJ Penn embarrassing Diego as we speak.

    Damn, BJ making him look like a complete amateur. Sanchez is completely outclassed.

    Diego has never been that good. He easily lost to Koscheck.

    1st round he knocked him down with a punch and looked like he will pound him out but Diego survived, BJ hurt him at the end of the round as well. Second round BJ just picked him off patiently with strikes, diego worked for a takedown at the end but did not get it.

    Diego beats 80-90% of the lightweights in the world. that is pretty damn good. BJ Penn is just in a class of his own at LW.

    So what. He wins on agression and conditioning, not skill. I'd pick Florian to beat him in a rematch.

    diego working for the takedown which bj nonchalantly defends and lands his left hand at will when they are not clinched up.

    it seems like penn rarely uses his BJJ unless he's against the cage defending.

    this is a boring fight. aside from Penn, all of the lightweights are pretty much the same.

    Florian really has improved a lot.

    I can't believe he lost to Sanchez, but even more so to Sean "The Muscle Midget" Sherk.

    I think Kenny would bash the shit out of both of them now.

    Kenny Florian is pretty good, he usually finishes his opponents.

    I agree. That fight was at 185, Florian should not fight that high, he's a pretty small guy.

    you said he wasn't any good. for a guy to be able to beat 90% of the world in the division he is in is very good. I'd pick Florian to beat him in a rematch as well, but it wouldn't be easy.
