That was a shitty show, and I am kind of going back to hating Machida again.. maybe these guys are getting too evenly matched. This is the second show in a row where there were 10 decisions and 2 finishes. This also set the record for longest night ever, with 3 hours of actual fighting. That sounds like it should be good, but most of the fights were boring.
I miss Strikeforce, they always had these awesome lopsided cards with a lot of exciting fights and wild finishes.
Erik Silva looked good, but his opponent had no business being there in the ring with him.
Machida was never in any real danger against Mousassi, and he should have finished him, or at least tried. Instead he "stuck to the plan" of circling around him all night, and occasionally throwing combinations.
As for who Mousassi fights, there are plenty of guys at 185 who are stuck in limbo. Hell Francis Carmont may be a good one, I thought he looked good despite losing. If you can survive with Jacare on your back for 2 full rounds, that is a feat in itself IMO
I guess they'll do Machida vs the winner of Weidman/Belfort but personally I think he should fight Jacare and have that winner go for the title
Also BTW
