An excellent night of fights. I would say they were all pretty entertaining if you like mma. Definitely got my money's worth from Hooters.

If I never saw Sherk fight again I would not be sad. He never tries to finish a fight. He puts himself in great position only to lay there and then switch to another position so the ref doesn't stand him up.

I think I over estimated Rashad. How did he think he won the fight? What is he doing with all that energy after the fight when he didn't do anything until the last 90 seconds?

Props to Kenny for calling out fighters who aren't looking to finish.

ufc announced that Sherk will defend his title against BJ Penn in November. should be a great fight, if BJ doesn't gas, he should take it.

they also announced an immediate rematch between Tito & Rashad

source?

Pretty decent night of fights. I hope Silva finally gets the respect he deserves. Don't get me wrong, a lot of people think he is a GOOD champion. I think he may be the best p4p fighter in the UFC right now.

What the hell are they doing up at Big Bear? Rashad outlasted Tito. Tito constantly talks about conditioning, etc, and he was gassed by the beginning of the third round. If that was a title fight, I think Rashad would've won it.

Every other fight I think was pretty much predictable, which is an oddity. I'm just curious; Had it been someone other than Big Nog, would the referee have stopped the fight? Had it been another ref, would we be talking about the upset?

I agree on all counts. Especially the last one. I think a lot of refs would have stopped that fight, so I am glad we had that one. Comebacks after flash knockouts are classic.
I still haven't seen a replay of Silva knocking out Nate. I don't know if I missed it, or they just didn't show it after the fight. Was it a good stoppage?
